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.Malaysians have been captivated this week by reports of the slaying of a self-made cosmetics mogul whose remains were discovered on a poultry farm owned by two lawyer brothers with an alleged history of shady land deals, according to police.
Sosilawati Lawiya and three of her aides disappeared late last month; her BMW was later found abandoned. Police said this week that all four were probably murdered, their bodies burned and the ashes discarded in streams near the lawyers' property. The motive could be a land deal gone bad, police said.
