I'm so excited to take the stage with a woman who has survived and transcended an abusive husband, tabloid exploitation, and the casual cruelty of an entire nation. Lorena Gallo is an inspiration, and we're going to talk about everything we have in common. #deathbecomesus @deathbecomesusfest

Both Knox and Bobbitt faced intense media scrutiny when their cases were in the spotlight. Knox went on trial for the 2007 murder of her then-roommate Meredith Kercher but was eventually exonerated by Italy's highest court. She did, however, spend a few years in jail before the about-face.

For her part, Bobbitt made headlines in the early '90s after she attacked her husband after what she said were years of abuse and sexual assaults. She was eventually found not guilty due to insanity and was ordered to undergo 45 days of psychiatric evaluations before being released.

While all-access passes are curerntly sold out, tickets to individual shows can still be purchased here.
