Italy’s conviction of Amanda Knox for the murder of her British roommate when the two have been change students together could spur a drawn-out battle over extradition in america, where supporters contend she is the victim of a erroneous foreign justice machine. If Knox’s conviction is not directly tested pending further appeals, her attorneys are anticipated to argue that the US cannot send her to Italy partly as a result of U.S. constitutional guarantees towards “double jeopardy,” despite the fact that some specialists say that may be a troublesome case to prove. Knox and her former Italian boyfriend Raffaele Sollecito were discovered responsible on Thursday for the 2nd time within the 2007 stabbing loss of life of Meredith Kercher, in a retrial that reversed an prior appeal judgment that cleared her. Knox, who spent four years in an Italian jail ahead of returning to the USA in 2011, was sentenced to 28 years and 6 months but is not going to face penitentiary time pending further appeals in Italy.
