False Confession
Knox’s boss, Patrick Lumumba, had been in touch with her the night of November 2. Lumumba texted Amanda Knox, saying she didn’t need to come to the bar that night. During her interrogation, Amanda Knox implicated Lumumba in the crime, but later retracted the confession. Knox claimed all the hours of threats in Italian without a lawyer pressured her. Although her murder conviction was dismissed, they did uphold the conviction against Knox of slandering Lumumba.
