"Italy overturned this conviction and sent me back for retrial last year. They found me guilty again, and now this is my final bid to clear my name once and for all," Knox wrote on X before the verdict came down. "I am not a liar. I am not a slanderer. I was not present at my house when Meredith was murdered."
