Well this was certainly an interesting link form the same page:
https://www.occrp.org/en/28-ccwatch/cc-watch-indepth/8813-a-scandal-a-murder-and-a-mystery-in-bulgaria https://www.occrp.org/en/28-ccwatch/cc-watch-indepth/8813-a-...
"But the victim of the brutal rape and murder was Bulgarian television journalist Viktoria Marinova — and her last broadcast was about the theft of hundreds of millions of euros from European Union-funded programs in her country.
Even those who had never heard of the so-called “GP scandal” certainly know about it now.
In the program, which aired just six days before she was killed, Marinova interviewed reporters from OCCRP’s Bulgarian partner, Bivol and its Romanian partner, the RISE Project."

- Para2016 8y agoThe 21 year old guy said he doesn't remember raping, robbing, or murdering her because he "blacked out" but he says he regrets it? You believe that? That means he doesn't have to supply a single detail of how the rape and murder even happened. And the DNA evidence? Trivial to link to somebody in a corrupt system. If he's going to confess he needs to provide details, like if she was sodomized, where he hit her, etc. Plus what drugs was he on? Either he could still test positive or they can hair test him.
- orbitingpluto 8y agoSorry, my bad for not specifying that. Deaths of journalists are one of those things to always note. Romania =/= Bulgaria
