Amanda Knox has a very unexpected friendship in Italy

Italian lawyer Giuliano Mignini who fought to jail Amanda Knox for the murder of Meredith Kercher says the American "has changed" and they are now friends. The prosecutor said they now have a "good opinion" of Knox and that they text each other via WhatsApp. Leeds University student Meredith Kercher, 21, had been found stabbed to death in her bedroom of the apartment she shared with Amanda Knox in the Italian hill town of Perugia on Nov. 2, 2007. American student Amanda Knox, then 20, and her Italian boyfriend Raffaele Sollecito, who was 23, were arrested four days later and were convicted at trial twice. Both convictions were overturned due to lack of evidence linking them to the crime. Knox's correspondence with prosecutor Mignini began when she wrote him letters, delivered by intermediary priest Don Saulo Scarabattoli, before switching to the WhatsApp messaging platform.
