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 woman accused of cutting off a neighbour's penis in a mutual drunken stupor burst into tears at her trial yesterday and cried out 'I didn't do it', AP reports from Frankfurt an der Oder. The woman, charged with attempted manslaughter, at first confessed to police but later retracted her statement. Prosecutors say the defendant, 51, and the 54-year-old man have had no romantic involvement.
In Ankara, Turkish police said they had freed a woman who cut off her lover's penis after the man decided not to press charges.
