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 prostitute was sentenced to custody for life at the Old Bailey yesterday for murdering a wealthy banker who tape-recorded his own horrific death.
Judge Henry Pownall QC told 20-year-old Samantha Enoch of Clapham, south London: "In this court there have been some calculated, calculating and callous defendants, but few to touch you ... you are dangerous, devious and wicked." Enoch had claimed she had nothing to do with the death of Syrian-born Habib Saliba, who was stabbed 26 times at his flat in London in June last year. Ronald Tamplin, 27, who was also accused of murder, was cleared.
