Knox leaves Italy to head home to US

None

Amanda Knox headed home to the United States a free woman Tuesday, the morning after an Italian appeals court dramatically overturned the American student's conviction of sexually assaulting and brutally slaying her British roommate.

 

The Italy-US Foundation, which has championed Knox's cause, said she departed shortly after noon from Rome's Leonardo da Vinci airport on the way to London, from where she will catch a connecting flight to the United States. (AP)
