Whistleblower's death not suspicious, police confirm




Sean Hoare, the former News of the World reporter that was the first employee to speak openly about the hacking scandal, and the man that first claimed that former News editor and PM David Cameron communications director Andy Coulson personally directed some of the hacking, was found dead today at his home outside London. Police have said that the cause of death is unknown, but that the death is not suspicious.

Hoare was known to have problems with drugs and alcohol, and the police said that they were not treating the death as a suspicious one, though they did not reveal what caused Hoare to pass away. But it still comes as a grim coincidence during a period when the phone hacking scandal is escalating seemingly every day.

Hoare first outed himself as a phone-hacker in a September 10 New York Times article. He said that he used to play Coulson—who became the top communications aide to Prime Minister David Cameron, and was later arrested for his alleged role in the hacking operation—recordings of hacked voicemails when the latter was the editor of the News of the World. Coulson, he told the paper, “actively encouraged me to do it.” After the article was published, Hoare was questioned by police.
