Suspicions Surrounding 'Suicide' of Investigative Journalist Gary Webb
Investigative Reporter Gary Webb Who Linked CIA to Crack Sales
Found Deadof Apparent Suicide
Gary Webb, a Pulitzer Prize-winning investigative reporter who wrote a series of stories linking the CIA to crack cocaine trafficking in Los Angeles, is dead at age 49. We hear an 1998 interview with Gary Webb on Democracy Now! and we speak with his colleague, veteran investigative journalist Robert Parry.
Webb was found Friday morning at his home in Sacramento County, dead of an
apparent suicide. Moving-company workers called authorities after discovering a note posted on his front door that read, "Please do not enter. Call 911 and ask for an ambulance." Webb died of a gunshot wound to the head, according to the Sacramento County coroner's office. He is survived by two sons and a daughter.
Gary Webb's 1996 series in the San Jose Mercury News titled "Dark Alliance"
revealed that for the better part of a decade, a Bay Area drug ring sold tons of cocaine to Los Angeles street gangs and funneled millions in drug profits to the CIA-backed Nicaraguan Contras."

Well known are Gary Webb's troubles at the San Jose Mercury News after he wrote some of his critical pieces. His presentation some years ago at Hawai'i was very well attended and issues he covered were so important to the audience and their communities.

WARNING
This is a very graphic photo and video of a man who, in the middle of a press conference resulting from his conviction on corruption charges, pulls out a gun, sticks it in his mouth, and pulls the trigger.
This is provided for educational purposes only and is NOT RECOMMENDED FOR CHILDREN.
This video of a suicide by gunshot to the head was posted originally as evidence in the question of how White House Deputy Council Vincent Foster really died. However, this same video is relevant to the discussion of how Gary Webb died.
Webb is known to have died from not one, but TWO gunshot wounds to the head. Take a good look at this video and decide for yourself if a man who fires a gun into his own head will be able to pull that trigger a second time.
