Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.Schoolfriends of murdered teenager Caroline Dickinson may face renewed questioning today about the horrific sex killing during a trip to France, amid reports that a serial attacker could be involved. Five French detectives are in Launceston, Cornwall, to continue investigations into the month-old sex killing of the blonde 13-year-old, a pupil at the local community college.
West Country detectives are following up reports that a man tried to suffocate a 14-year-old Manchester schoolgirl in a French hostel three hours before Caroline was murdered 25 miles away. The chairman of Salford education committee, John Merry, confirmed yesterday that he had informed Devon and Cornwall police of "an incident" involving a Hope High School pupil on a trip to France.
