The inspiration for the film The Face of an Angel, starring Kate
Beckinsale and Daniel Bruhl In November 2007 Meredith Kercher, a
fresh-faced honor student, was found dead in her shared apartment
in Perugia, Italy. Her body, naked but for a T-shirt, was covered
in bruises; her blood-smeared hand was suspended in the air above
her face; and she had fatal stab wounds in her neck. The Italian
police eventually arrested three people in connection with
Meredith's killing. One was her flat-mate Amanda Knox who, with her
boyfriend Raffaele Sollecito and Rudy Guede, was convicted of
murder in 2011. They received jail terms of twenty-six and
twenty-five years. After four years in prison, Knox and Sollecito
successfully appealed their convictions and were released, only to
be reconvicted in January 2014. Barbie Latza Nadeau covered every
step of the investigation, trial, and appeal. She has been
relentless in following the byzantine processes of Italian law and
has never lost sight of the central question: who killed Meredith
Kercher?
