Our long history of exploiting women's bodies and suppressing their voices had a direct impact on my case and other women's lives.

I was not aware of a ton of the stuff that was being said about me out in the world since I wasn't able to get British or American headlines from my prison cell in Perugia. But I was aware that in the courtroom, I was being called a succubus, a man-eater, 'Foxy Knoxy.'

The best thing #MeToo did was say women's experiences matter. You can't blame us for what happens to us anymore.

Before Italy, I had a happy life.

I think it's true that people seemed to have had a kind of tunnel vision in my regard, and that has been something that I've been having to fight against for a long time.

As this case has progressed, the evidence that the prosecution has claimed exists against me has been proven less and less and less. And all that has happened is that they've filled these holes with speculation.

After my conviction, I was devastated. I had never believed that I would be convicted.

I think the fact that my case was so sensationalized is because I am a white woman.

I think that there was a lot of fantasy projected onto me, and that resulted in a reappropriation and re-characterization of who I am.

The only thing I can do is continue to defend myself.

I'm definitely not going back to Italy willingly. They'll have to catch me and pull me back kicking and screaming into a prison that I don't deserve to be in.

I am a marked person, and no one who's unmarked is going to understand that. It's very intimidating. I don't even know what my place is anymore. What's my role in society? Who am I, after everybody has branded me?

I have a few close friends with whom I can practice speaking Italian, but I mostly maintain fluency through reading.

I always carry a book with me to read on the bus, and I tend to arrive everywhere early.

I have a great amount of respect for life, and I always think that no matter how bad situations get, you can always make something out of it.

You can always do something that can make you feel good about your life despite what you're going through.

I've gained a seriousness that has to do with a certain perspective, a gratitude for being able to see the importance of things. And that lends itself a gravity to everything. And that is something that I sort of carry as a weight but a good weight inside of me.

One of the things that I somewhat realized, especially right after I was convicted, was that sometimes really, really horrible things happen for no reason.

No one knows how they would react to a horrible situation until it happens to them.

In a time when my entire family had already tapped into their retirement savings and taken out second mortgages, we were grateful when any supporters, including Trump, donated to my defense and spoke out about my innocence.

Even if Trump means well, his schemes tend to be blunt, selfish, and short-sighted rather than nuanced, empathetic, and thought through.

If I'm guilty, I'm the ultimate figure to fear, because I'm not the obvious one. But, on the other hand, if I'm innocent, it means that everyone is vulnerable, and that is everyone's nightmare. Either I'm a psychopath in sheep's clothing, or I am you.
