So I just want to ask, to be clear, did you ever see the body of Maurice Bishop? No. You're sure? Absolutely. Do you remember speaking with any of the people who were involved in looking for Maurice Bishop's remains? There's a mystery on the Caribbean island of Grenada. It goes back 40 years. It's about the revolutionary leader who was executed in a coup in 1983. Seven people were killed alongside him, and the whereabouts of their remains are unknown.
Over the last year and a half, I've interviewed more than 100 people about this mystery. People in Grenada and Americans. Soldiers, diplomats, intelligence officers, even a member of the U.S. Congress. Because 40 years ago, the actions of the U.S. government played a role in shaping the fate of this Caribbean nation.
And now we have new reporting about the U.S.'s involvement in this mystery. Sometimes when you keep asking questions, you get some new answers. Hello? Hi, my name is Martine Powers. I'm calling from the Washington Post. I'm calling because I'm trying to find a forensic pathologist who was in Grenada in 1983. Is that you? Yes, it is.
I've been involved in a lot of investigations, forensic investigations and criminal investigations. And I can tell you, in my words, this thing stinks. The Empty Grave of Comrade Bishop is a new investigative podcast. The first two episodes launch on October 23rd. After that, subscribers of The Washington Post can get early access to new episodes each week on Apple Podcasts. Wherever you listen, make sure to follow The Empty Grave of Comrade Bishop right now.
