RE: Justice for Journalists | The Murder of Daphne Caruana Galizia | One Year On

in #justice4daphne6 years ago

Victoria might only be a case of rape murder. At least that is the official stance now, and it is really not impossible. It does not look like an exemplary murder. If it was done as hush-up, it was a panic reaction.

But even if it is indeed "just" a rape, the fact that the first thought of many was that it is a "mafia" killing shows how bad the situation is.

Sort:  

You're right, my main intention was just to point out the disturbing trend and it does appear that Viktoria's murder was not politically motivated at this time.

I will also say that Khashoggi is also not what he's being made out to be by the msm (cnn, WaPo, NYTimes) doing exemplary work to fight for the people or speak truth to power. He appears to have been a staunch supporter of the previous Saudi regime, but has fallen out with the current prince. But the murder of journalists in broad daylight, in their homes and out in the open, without repercussion in many cases, is very disturbing.
