Amanda Knox is a Seattle native who gained notoriety when her roommate during a study abroad program in Italy was murdered. Amanda and her then boyfriend were suspects and later convicted for the murder. She was released after 4 years in prison on appeal, and has been back in the US for the past few years.
Now, recent reports says she is engaged and may be getting married soon to someone she has known since middle school. According to The Seattle Times Editor Jonathan Martin, Amanda Knox is engaged to Colin Sutherland and they will be tying the knot in the near future. Martin says the engagement was disclosed to him by a source close to the family, and Amanda Knox confirmed it in an email, though she declined to say anything else.
