In reality, if you bought something from Amazon's Kindle Store for your Kindle and it turned out to be under a copyright violation, Amazon would most likely be held liable for the fault, and not you, if it were to go into a legal process. When you make a purchase from an established worldwide entity such as Amazon, it is understood that they go through the processes to ensure proper copyright action has been taken BEFORE the product makes it to the virtual shelf. I doubt any judge in the USA would find you at fault in this case.

Now if you purchased a copyright-violated work from somewhere else that might be a different story, but since the Amazon Kindle and Kindle store go hand in hand, the responsibility clearly falls to them.
