The verdict has just been read: Amanda Knox has been found not guilty on appeal, and the judge ordered her to be released immediately. However, Knox was found guilty of "defamation," and has already served her time for that charge. A judge called the evidence used against her in her initial conviction "not reliable."

Knox reportedly left the courtroom in tears with her boyfriend, Raffaele Sollecito, who was also acquitted of murder. According to the Washington Post, the two are returning to prison to pick up their belongings, and then will be free to leave.
