The Indo Daily - Moira Killeen: A disputed "violent and suspicious" death and a family's fight for answers - Just a heads-up: This episode contains references to suicide and suicidal ideation, so please take care when listening. In December of 2019, the body of Moira Killeen was discovered in her apartment in the Belair distract of Luxembourg. Her death quickly became a matter of dispute. On one side, the medical examiner cited Ms Killeen's death as "violent and suspicious". On the other, the prosecutor ruled that Ms Killeen's died by suicide and declined to carry out a post-mortem examination. Moira Killeen was later cremated. Her family has consistently rejected the conclusion of suicide and continue to fight for answers seven years later.

The Indo Daily -- Tattle Life: Why the case against gossip site fell apart -- Tattle Life is a self-described "commentary website". Supporters of the site say it's free speech, protects consumers, and that influencers are fair game, with the website saying it has a zero-tolerance policy to any abusive, hateful or harmful content. But critics claim users have published private documents, that the site facilitates vile and cruel trolling – even stalking.Last year, it was revealed County Antrim couple Neil and Donna Sands seemed to have taken the so-called 'king of the trolls', alleged owner of the site, Sebastian Bond, down. But now court has ruled he didn't even know his crown was being seized – and the couple have to pay back £300,000 in damages.This episode of The Indo Daily is brought to you by our sister podcast the BelTel, as Olivia Peden is joined by Belfast Telegraph reporter Kurtis Reid.We want to earn your trust and are members of the Trust Project.
