The case is well-known due to its sensational details: On November 1, 2007, Meredith Kercher, a 21-year-old student from Leeds, England, was found dead in the apartment she shared with others. Her roommate, Amanda Knox, became suspicious when she returned home on November 2 after spending the night with her boyfriend, Raffaele Sollecito, who was a local Italian. When she arrived, she saw blood stains, a broken window, and Kercher’s room was locked. Thinking it might just be a burglary, she contacted the police, who discovered Kercher’s body and a disturbing crime scene. The recent Hulu series, which concluded on October 1, presents the story from Knox’s viewpoint, even using elements of magical realism to illustrate how surreal those years were for her. Initially, both Sollecito and Knox were found guilty of involvement in the murder and received a 25-year prison sentence. However, after serving only four years, their convictions were overturned, and they were released.
