Amanda Knox spent nearly four years in an Italian prison after being accused of murdering her roommate while studying abroad.

Italy’s highest court acquitted the now-37-year-old of murder in 2015. Today, 10 years later, the married mother of two said that if her kids ever want to head overseas for an education, she would give them her blessing.

Knox, whose book “Free: My Search for Meaning” was recently published, told Fox News Digital that she encourages students to study abroad and travel. But she also warned of the risks that come with not staying closely connected with loved ones when away from home.

Guede, 37, was freed in 2021, after serving most of his 16-year sentence.

In January of this year, Italy’s highest-ranking court affirmed a slander finding against Knox for accusing an innocent man, Patrick Lumumba, of murdering her flatmate.

Knox’s defense team said she had accused Lumumba, a Congolese man who employed her at a bar, during a long night of questioning and under pressure from police, whom they said had fed her false information. The European Court of Human Rights found that the police had deprived her of a lawyer and provided a translator who acted more as a mediator.

Based on Knox’s statements, Lumumba was brought in for questioning, despite having an ironclad alibi. His business suffered, and he eventually moved to Poland with his Polish wife. He previously said that Knox “has never apologized to me.”

Knox does not risk any more time in jail. She has continued her legal battle with the aim of clearing her name.

On a recent episode of her podcast, Knox said, “I hate the fact that I have to live with consequences for a crime I did not commit.”
