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.A sixth person was held by police yesterday in the investigation into the murder of Irish crime reporter Veronica Guerin.
All of those held during the past two days have been detained under the terms of legislation permitting suspects to be kept in custody for up to 48 hours. The latest arrest, of a man, was made yesterday morning. A man and a woman held after leaving a ferry from Anglesey, at Dun Laoghaire, Co Dublin, on Wednesday, and three other men picked up later, are also being questioned.
Ms Guerin was shot dead in her car in Dublin last June. More than 100 arrests have been made, but only one man has been charged with the murder.
