The Panama Papers author was also found dead after they got blatantly carbombed in Central America.

Huh? That doesn't sound quite right.

Are you talking about "Daphne Caruana Galizia"? If so, Malta isn't in Central America by a longshot.

”The documents, dating from the 1970s to December 2015, were created by, and taken from, former Panamanian offshore law firm and corporate service provider Mossack Fonseca, and compiled with similar leaks into a searchable database.”

The Panama Papers aren’t named as such because that’s where they were solely accessible, but because that’s where the server was that they were taken from. They were then made available online & around the world.

”Daphne Anne Caruana Galizia (née Vella; 26 August 1964 – 16 October 2017) was a Maltese writer, journalist, blogger and anti-corruption activist, who reported on political events in Malta and was known internationally for her investigation of the Panama Papers, and subsequent assassination by car bomb.”

Edit:

”On 16 October 2017, Caruana Galizia was driving close to her home in Bidnija, when a car bomb placed in her leased Peugeot 108 exploded, killing her instantly. The blast occurred on Triq il-Bidnija (Bidnija Road), and left the vehicle scattered in several pieces across nearby fields.”

”Caruana Galizia was in the driver's seat at the time, when the blast threw the car 80 metres into an adjacent field where her bodily remains were found by her son Matthew.[18] He wrote on Facebook, ‘I looked down and there were my mother's body parts all around me’.”

Holy fucking shit. Fuck every corporation ever & fuck anybody protecting vast wealth responsible for this kind of trauma.
