SEATTLE —

The parents of Amanda Knox are so hopeful she'll be freed after her murder trial in Italy they have bought an airplane ticket home to Seattle for their daughter.

Curt Knox and Edda Mellas told Seattle TV stations they're flying to Italy on Thanksgiving Day to be in court when the defense presents its closing arguments.

Mellas says there's no credible evidence or motive to convict her daughter. Mellas says the former University of Washington student wants to finish school.

Curt Knox says he's worried that what he calls character assassination and misreporting outside of court will influence the jury.

He says they're all just waiting for the words of innocence to come up in court.
