Title: Accused of Murder: Amanda Knox 'Overwhelmed' as She Returns Home to Seattle

http://news.yahoo.com/amanda-knox-overwhelmed-she-returns-home-seattle-223402103.html

Amanda Knox arrived at Seattle-Tacoma International Airport this evening and told cheering friends and supporters she was "overwhelmed" to be home.

"They're reminding me to speak in English, because I'm having problems with that," Knox said, her voice trembling. "I'm really overwhelmed right now. I was looking down from the airplane, and it seemed like everything wasn't real."

After she teared up during earlier brief thank yous by her parents and her U.S. legal adviser, Knox, who was freed this week after four years in an Italian prison for a murder she has steadfastly denied committing, spoke only briefly at a podium while wearing a loose gray sweater over a black T-shirt, after a supporter shouted, "Welcome Home, Amanda."

"What's important for me to say is just thank you to everyone who has believed in me, who has defended me, who has supported my family," she said. "My family's the most important thing to me right now, and I just want to go and be with them."

She took no questions and left the room with her family.

Knox's arrival in Seattle on a British Airways flight out of London capped an emotional rollercoaster for the 24-year-old woman. Her legs buckled and she nearly collapsed when the Italian court threw out her murder conviction Monday and released her from prison, where she'd spent almost four years.

Knox and ex-boyfriend Raffaele Sollecito were convicted in 2009 of killing Knox's British roommate, Meredith Kercher. Knox was serving a 26-year prison term, and Sollecito was given a 25-year sentence.

Theodore Simon, the Knox family's U.S. legal adviser, told those assembled for Knox's airport homecoming not to forget about Kercher.

"Let us not forget that Meredith was Amanda's friend, and I know Amanda and the family wants you to remember Meredith and to keep the Kercher family in your prayers," Simon said.

He added that Knox's return ended "a trying and grueling, four-year, nightmarish marathon that no child or parent should have to endure," but that Monday's Italian court decision "unmistakably announced to the world" that she was not guilty in Kercher's killing.

Amanda Knox signs reported $4 million book deal for 'full and unflinching' memoirs

Amanda Knox, the American student convicted then cleared of murdering her British room-mate, has signed a reported $4 million (£2.5 million) book deal for a "full and unflinching" account of the events surrounding her arrest and trial.

(http://i.telegraph.co.uk/multimedia/archive/02018/knox-3-way_2018218b.jpg)
Amanda Knox, shown here shortly after her conviction for murder was thrown out, has signed a book deal

Following what was described as a "heated" bidding war, publishing giant HarperCollins announced that the as-yet untitled memoir would go on sale in the United States early next year.

Knox and her then-boyfriend Raffaele Sollecito were sentenced to 26 and 25 years respectively for the 2007 murder of Meredith Kercher in the Italian city of Perugia, serving four before being freed in October.

Prosecutors this week launched a high court appeal against their release – they maintain that the couple murdered Miss Kercher, 21, slitting her throat and stabbing her multiple times when she refused to take part in a sex orgy. A third defendant, Rudy Guede, remains in prison.

    13 Feb 2012

In a statement, Harper Collins said: "Knox will give a full and unflinching account of the events that led to her arrest in Perugia and her struggles with the complexities of the Italian judicial system.

"Aided by journals she kept during her imprisonment, Knox will talk about her harrowing experience at the hands of the Italian police and later prison guards and inmates.

"She will reveal never before-told details surrounding her case, and describe how she used her inner strength and strong family ties to cope with the most challenging time of her young life."

HarperCollins refused to confirm how much 24-year-old Knox will be paid for the book, but insiders suggested it was at least seven figures, and probably close to $4 million (£2.5).

Twenty publishers had expressed an interested in the memoir before her representatives held an auction this week. Knox met with seven executives – all of whom bid for the book.

Jonathan Burnham of HarperCollins said that Knox had studied creative writing in college, and would be writing the book herself with the help of an unnamed collaborator. Her editor is Claire Wachtel, who has worked with the crime novelist Dennis Lehane.

Since her return from Perugia, Knox has kept a low profile, spending much of her time working on the memoirs in her home town of Seattle.

She retained the services of Robert B. Barnett, a Washington lawyer who has brokered book deal for a number of big names, including President Barack Obama, President Bill Clinton and former vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin.

Several publishers invited to meet Knox told the New York Times earlier this week that she had cut an impressive figure, appearing relaxed and speaking knowledgably about literature and her desire to become a writer.

A number of booksellers expressed reservations, however, about how well the memoirs would sell, given Knox's notoriety.

During her captivity, she was largely viewed in her own country an innocent victim of the chaotic Italian judicial system.

In both Britain and Italy, however, Knox is seen rather differently, with some suggesting that she got away with murder.

She became notorious during the early investigation into Miss Kercher's death after it emerged that she had turned a cartwheel in the police station soon after the murder, and was captured on television kissing Sollecito passionately. He is also said to be preparing to sell a book about the crime in Italy.

Miss Kercher's family had called on Knox not to publish her story – her father called the American's release from jail "ludicrous".

100% agree: the harry potter pasta eating boyfriend has his daddy's pocket.
his father is one of the richest building constructor of center italy, he hired the most famous lawyer awaylable and from that point on it all became a big show for tv.

the lawyer+money and power of harry potter were enough to cancel all evidence taken by the "CSI" (lolz just imagine italian CSI).
