Raffaele sollecito where is he now

Knox and Sollecito were retried and once again found guilty in , then released for good in And today I do not feel completely free, I feel cooped up in a kind of house arrest," Sollecito said of the experience as he rebuilt his life via The Mirror.

The native Italian may have been cleared in court, but his association with Kercher's murder and Knox's notoriety followed him for years. I'm imprisoned by a society that will not let me lead a normal life," he explained. Despite those challenges, Raffaele Sollecito refused to leave Italy and insisted he had no reason to feel ashamed, noted The Mirror.

He started a job in the IT field for a firm located in Parma, and he launched an app named Suntickets. Sollecito tinkered with a few entrepreneurial projects from there. He was on the verge of completing a computer science degree at Perugia University when he met Amanda Knox, an exchange student from Seattle, at a classical music concert in October Their encounter took place just days before Ms Kercher's death.

It was an intense story, it was the start. It was crazy. It was the same flat - bought for Mr Sollecito by his parents - where Ms Knox claimed she spent the night when Ms Kercher was murdered.

This contradicted reports of her initial police statement, which originally placed her at the scene of the crime. Mr Sollecito's defence was that on the night of the murder he was at home surfing the internet - although police said his computer records did not support the alibi.

He has also admitted smoking marijuana at the time. Both Mr Sollecito and Ms Knox admitted a fondness for the drug - which they blamed for their inability to recall their movements on the night Ms Kercher died. In a letter to an Italian magazine he wrote: "One morning you return to her house and find a big mess.

The problems begin: the police arrive, break down the locked door to a bedroom and discover the lifeless body of one of her Amanda's friends. From then on they suspect everyone and everything. The pair's defence was not helped by CCTV evidence leaked to the Italian press, reportedly showing them buying erotic lingerie and discussing "wild sex" barely 24 hours after Ms Kercher's death.

In the end, the jury sided with the prosecution and found them both guilty. Mr Sollecito's impassive face provided a stark contrast to Ms Knox who broke down in tears in the courtroom. He was sentenced to 16 years in prison after a fast-track process resulted in less jail time. Guede received a partial release in in order to attend school and has been working at a library in central Italy and as a volunteer for a Catholic charity. His sentence was set to end in Knox, now 33 and an advocate for criminal justice reform, said the "burden" of Guede's crime falls on her.

Last year, the European Court of Human Rights in Strasbourg, France, confirmed an earlier ruling that Knox's defense rights had been violated in during police questioning about the murder of Kercher.
