Danny and the octopus
Article Abstract:
American newspapers have focused their curiosity on the death of journalist Danny Casolaro and the possible link with a conspiracy at high levels. America is fascinated with conspiracy theories and already the death of Casolaro is being investigated. He was found dead in Oct 1990, apparently having committed suicide after suffering early symptoms of multiple sclerosis. His family dispute the suicide theory and point to his fascination with, and research into, crime and collusion particularly within the Justice department.
