Dr David Kelly Part 1
from Assassinations Podcast Hosted by Niall Cooper
We begin our deep dive into the case of Dr David Kelly by considering the finding of the inquiry into his death in the summer of 2003: suicide. But were there any signs that the British biological weapons inspector, who found himself at the center of an almighty political and media storm, was suicidal? Were there aspects of his death, and the official investigation into it, that pointed to something rather more sinister? We start to consider the evidence in the first episode of a three part series.
