American Amanda Knox said outside her mother's Seattle home on Friday night that she was "full of joy" following her acquittal by Italy's top court for the 2007 murder of British student Meredith Kercher.
"I'm still absorbing the present moment, which is full of joy," an emotional Knox told reporters at a news conference, flanked by her family.
"Meredith was my friend," she said, battling back tears. "She deserved so much in this life."
