Amanda Knox is an American woman convicted by an Italian court of murdering her roommate last year. Interest in Knox, nicknamed "Foxy Knoxy" by some, has peaked recently due to her upcoming appeal in which evidence will be heard anew. Allegations in the case are so bizarre -- from sex obsessions and satanism to mafia involvement and prosecutorial misconduct -- that it's guaranteed high-profile coverage.Amanda Knox returned to her hometown of Seattle on Tuesday and was as overcome with emotion as she was a day earlier in Italy, when she was acquitted on murder charges after four years in prison. "Thank you for being there for me," she tearfully told her supporters in front of a crowd of international reporters.

"I'm really overwhelmed right now," she said at a news conference minutes after she was escorted off a British Airways flight out of London. "I was looking down from the airplane, and it seemed like everything wasn't real."
