A fabulous murder mystery explodes on the scene - drawing on years of witnessing Westminster backstabbing and crime scenes of East Anglia we once explored together as cub reporters on the @EDP24 - a whole new genre in the making with stellar writing, plot and characters to love

Journalist @StephenGrey, who spent years investigating the tycoon accused of masterminding the journalist’s murder, says his outrageous acquittal has left a grieving family without justice – and yet still not without hope

‘No family of a murder victim should have had to go through what they have gone through – it was an outrage that it was left to them to campaign for justice, for the legislation needed to protect reporters like their mum…’ @StephenGrey thenerve.news/p/daphne-carua…
Kudos for the scoop. Pre-emptive announcements in other media after you go for a comment undermines the whole push by British libel judges to get media to seek fair comment before publication.
This sets up a major confrontation with the UK Government - it's not clear they will allow Harborne (who lives abroad) to make this donation, as the plan was to require one year of residence before donations allowed.

#Daphne case: there is shock at the not guilty verdict vs alleged mastermind, tycoon Yorgen Fenech. When arrested he admitted paying for the hit, although said he'd been asked to do it by the Prime Minster's top aide. He walks free despite admitting paying over 450k to killers.
#Daphne case - NOT GUILTY on all charges vs Yorgen Fenech for murder of Daphne Caruana Galizia.
Trial verdict in the #Daphne case has been reached by the jury - the court re-assembles to hear it now.
In #Daphne CG murder trial, nine-person jury is being given sample verdicts on 2 charges:- a) Complicity in the wilful homicide and/or b) Criminal association to commit the murder.
In Malta, a 6-3 vote by the jury is sufficient to convict.
Jury will shortly retire.
