Earlier today a tearful Amanda Knox made a dramatic 10-minute final plea for her freedom to the judge and jury in the court in Perugia.

Amanda,24, speaking in Italian, said: ‘I am the same person I was four years ago, the same person, the only thing that distinguishes me from four years ago is the four years that I have suffered.

‘In four years I have lost a friend in a brutal and unexplained way. My faith in the police has been betrayed.  ‘I have had to face accusations, injustice and suggestions without foundation and I am paying with my life for something that I did not do.

‘I am not what they say I am. I am not perverse, violent, disrespectful towards life, people, these things do not apply to me and I have not done the things that have been suggested.  ‘I did not kill, I did not rape, I did not steal. I was not there. I was not present at this crime.

‘I had never faced such tragedy, suffering, I didn’t know how to tackle it, how to interpret it.  ‘A person who I was sharing my life with, who had the bedroom next to me, she was killed in our house and if I was there that night I could have been killed.

‘Meredith was killed and I have always wanted justice for her. I am not fleeing from the truth and have never fled. I insist on the truth. I insist after four desperate years for our innocence because it is true. It deserves to be recognised.

‘I want to go home. I want to return to my life, I don’t want to be punished and deprived of my life, future for something I have not done because I am innocent, Raffaele is also innocent.

‘We deserve our freedom. We have never done anything not to deserve it.’
