'Tired and disappointed' Amanda Knox on 'suicide watch'

New York, Dec 7 (ANI): American student Amanda Knox, who was found guilty of murdering British student Meredith Kercher, was placed on suicide watch.

She spent her first night as a convicted murderer under surveillance from Italian authorities.
