UW student ordered to remain jailed in Italy for death probe

A court in Rome has decided that University of Washington student Amanda Knox will remain in jail while police continue to investigate the death of her roommate.

Today's ruling continues custody for the Seattle woman, her Italian boyfriend and another man who have been jailed since the stabbing in November in the city of Perugia (per-OO'-juh).

All deny involvement in the death of the roommate, British student Meredith Kercher.

Police say she was stabbed in the neck during a sexual assault in the apartment she shared with Knox.
