Phil only reassembled and powered on his email system a few minutes ago
after a 36-hour trip to Cumbria.

What I find amazing (and deeply worrying) is an ongoing trend in American
thought that reduces the whole process of justice to a hunch.

Not only are you all prepared to pronounce people guilty without trial -
you now don't even appear to require an interrogation.  This is sick.

You go from "Putin don't like the woman" to "strap him on a
table" in a heartbeat.  Assassinations of journalists are not that
uncommon - both Eire and Northern Ireland had famous cases - but one thing
that's universal is that journalists don't like their colleagues getting
bumped off and they're (taken as a whole) a damned tenacious bunch - it
tends to be counterproductive.

So just let's wait until at least have a suspect, shall we?
