It’s not that I’m not grateful that the UN has published something about this, but when there are 3 separate caveats in the first sentence that “it’s totally not us saying this officially!”, it emphasizes how useless the UN is at dealing with its blessed founding member. Really disappointing while being in no way surprising.

For anyone who doesn’t want to click through to rawstory and then Twitter (why does Lieu still use this?), the document in question is EFTA00020517 (redacted version). Trigger warning for both rape and murder although it does not go into significantly more detail than the rawstory link. I think this document was from the batch at least a month ago though.

It also claims that the coroner ruled the death a suicide even though officers on the scene said there was no way it could have been.
