I love Italy. I also hate it. The country has never been very kind to me, nor I to it. Let’s just put it this way. There is no doubt in my mind that Amanda Knox is innocent.

At 17 years old I left to study abroad in Mirandola, a small town near Modena, in the north. I was going to live with a family for the semester and attend a local high school.
