FLORENCE, Italy—An Italian court reconvicted Amanda Knox of slander Wednesday, quashing her hope of removing a legal stain against her that has persisted after her exoneration in the brutal 2007 murder of her British roommate while the two were exchange students in Italy.
The decision by a Florence appeals court panel marked the sixth time that an Italian court found Ms. Knox had wrongly blamed the killing on an innocent man, the Congolese owner of the bar where she worked part-time.
