Who killed journalist Richard Wild?

IT HAS been a difficult month for Robin and Daphne Wild. In July last year, their son Richard was murdered in Iraq, shot in the back of the head as he crossed the road in Baghdad.

Since then, the parents of the Cambridge University graduate have tried to piece together the events of that day. Mr and Mrs Wild - who feel they have been hindered, rather than helped, by the Foreign Office at every turn - have come to a startling conclusion; they believe their son’s murder was ordered by the CIA.

..."We are not naive, we know unpalatable things are done," says Mrs Wild. "But when you are drawn into it, it is terrifying."

More accounts of journalist deaths, many of them looking quite deliberate, are on my web page listing the fall-out in terms of resignations and deaths from the Bush administration.
