"Knox is played by Grace Van Patten, who dons blue contacts to complete the transformation, and begins before the American student travels to Italy for her study abroad. Executive-produced by Knox herself, and produced by Monica Lewinsky, the series emphasizes how naïve Knox was at the time, and just how harshly she was treated by not only the press, but an entire country."
"On November 1, 2007, a student named Meredith Kercher, 21, of Leeds, England, was killed in her shared apartment. Her roommate, Knox, suspected something happened in their apartment when she returned home on November 2 after spending the night at her then-boyfriend, Italian local Raffaele Sollecito. Upon arrival, she noticed blood spots, a broken window, and a locked door to Kercher's room. Hoping that it was just a break-in, she alerts the local authorities, who find Kercher's body and a gruesome crime scene."
