Prosecutor Giuliano Mignini reflects on friendship with Amanda Knox over fantasy fiction books
Giuliano Mignini, the lead prosecutor in Amanda Knox's murder trial, shared that he formed a friendship with Knox over their mutual interest in fantasy fiction. Knox, who was convicted in 2009 and later cleared in 2015, reached out to Mignini for a meeting. They met in Perugia, Italy, where the murder occurred. Mignini expressed surprise at Knox's initiative, noting that it is uncommon for someone he prosecuted to seek a friendly meeting. Despite their bond, Mignini maintained that he believes Knox is not fully truthful about the case, suggesting she may not remember events accurately.
