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.Thai prosecutors have charged a British kickboxer in connection with the 2010 stabbing of a former US Marine on a resort island.
Lee Aldhouse is accused of stabbing to death Dashawn Longfellow after being beaten by the American during a brawl at a Phuket bar.
Aldhouse was a semi-professional kickboxer who fought under the nickname Pitbull. He had been living on and off in Phuket, where Longfellow was also studying the sport.
Aldhouse was extradited to Thailand earlier this month in the first case of extradition of a criminal suspect from England to Thailand.
He was arrested at Heathrow Airport in London in 2010 after flying out from Thailand shortly after Longfellow was stabbed to death at his hotel.
