Amanda Knox: Trauma, Tabloids, and the Long Road Back from Hell

About this episode

“Foxy Knoxy.” That’s the name the tabloids gave her. But behind the headlines, the salacious trial coverage, and the courtroom circus, Amanda Knox was a 20-year-old study-abroad student—wrongfully accused, globally vilified, and sentenced to 26 years for a murder she didn’t commit.

Amanda Knox joins Ashleigh Banfield for an exclusive, raw, and emotional conversation about what came after the acquittal—and what never really ended. From her PTSD triggers to her complicated return to Italy, to a recent home break-in in the U.S. that shook her to her core, Amanda reveals how the trauma of wrongful conviction never truly fades.
