Amanda Knox's Post-Prison Challenges

• Even after being released from prison, Amanda Knox faced a new set of challenges due to the public's perception of her.
• Many people still associated her with the crime, assuming "where there's smoke, there's fire."
• Some, including potentially Meredith's family, believed she was guilty despite being exonerated by the Italian Supreme Court.
• This "reputational lock-in" made it difficult for people to change their minds, even with counter-evidence detailing the incompetent investigation.
• Knox's acquittal was appealed and overturned, leading to another trial for the same crime.
