Mayor offers apology for letting Knox film be made in Perugia

Angry residents displayed banners reading Rispetto per Meredith (respect for Meredith) around the city as the crew arrived to film scenes of Blue Moon, an eight-part drama chronicling Knox's battle to clear her name of the murder. The programme will be aired on streaming service Hulu.

Kercher, 21, was murdered in the house she shared with Knox on 1 November 2007. Kercher's body was found in her bedroom, partly undressed and with several stab wounds. Knox, 37, and her Italian ex-boyfriend Raffaele Sollecito, were twice convicted of the murder before being definitively acquitted in 2015 in a court ruling that described "stunning flaws" in the investigation that led to their convictions.
