Arthur Knight was an Irishman, wrongly arrested – he claimed – while recovering from a coma in a Glasgow hospital. Except “Arthur Knight” didn’t exist.
His actual title is Nicholas Rossi – a convicted intercourse offender, initially from the United States, who’s now going through trial in Utah on two additional counts of rape.
