In her first television interview, the murder suspect says she wants to pay her respects at the grave of Brit Meredith Kercher.


Amanda Knox has said she wants to visit the grave of Meredith Kercher - but only with the permission of the murdered British student's family.

In her first television interview since being freed from an Italian prison, she said: 'Eventually I can have their permission to pay my respects at her grave and I would also like them to know that she talked about them to me.'

Italian prosecutors claim Miss Knox and her then-boyfriend, Raffaele Sollecito, killed Miss Kercher, 21, in a drug-fuelled sex game along with another man in 2007.

Miss Knox's alibi rests on her claim that she was at Mr Sollecito's house on the night, and not at the Perugia flat she shared with Miss Kercher.

But during a police interrogation she admitted she was at home with Miss Kercher.
When questioned by ABC News' Diane Sawyer as she launched her book on her experience, she insisted the partial confession was the result of her 'breaking down'.

'I didn't confess. I was interrogated,' Miss Knox told ABC News. '(The police) acted like my answers were wrong, they told me I was wrong, that I didn't remember correctly, that I had to remember correctly, and that if I didn't I would never see her family.
