The documentary that just recently aired on Netflix about Amanda Knox was very eye-opening and viewers could get a better insight on what exactly occurred. There was real-time footage and the questions that were in the backs of every person's mind were answered. Interviews were also held with significant others such as Amanda Knox, herself, Raffaele, the boyfriend and their family members. The case as a whole was out of control and messy, but Nick Pisa who wrote for the Daily Mail, revealed it was in fact a simple case but the media had torn it apart to include various ridiculous perspectives.
The victim of the case was Meredith Kercher, 21 at the time who had traveled from South London to study in Perugia, Italy for a year. She was bright,

They wanted to see if they would gain witnesses or suspects and the theory was that multiple people were involved. It wasn't predictable and most likely was just a motive to mess with Knox's head to believe that she did had HIV.
The Amanda Knox case became worldwide and it was extremely controversial on who did what. I think the documentary was made to clear up any confusion there still may be about it because viewers can see a bird's eye perspective of everything & note the small details or information that was never mentioned.
