Suspect admits to shooting missing Amazon men

Published

Phillips and Pereira were missing for more than a week after travelling through the Amazon rainforest

A suspect has now confessed to shooting British journalist Dom Phillips and indigenous expert Bruno Pereira.

The man reportedly took investigators to the site where human remains were dug up with police yet to confirm the identities of the bodies. 

Two suspects have been arrested at this stage, who are allegedly brothers.

Police expect to carry out further arrests, and say the motive for the killings still remains unclear. 

Phillips and Pereira, 41, went missing in a remote part of the Amazon rainforest on June 5. 

Mr Phillips’ wife, says: “Although we are still awaiting definitive confirmations, this tragic outcome puts an end to the anguish of not knowing Dom and Bruno’s whereabouts. Now we can bring them home and say goodbye with love.”

“Today, we also begin our quest for justice. I hope that the investigations exhaust all possibilities and bring definitive answers on all relevant details as soon as possible.”

Phillips had lived in Brazil for over a decade and contributed to The Guardian. He was in the Javari Valley working on an environmental protection book, whilst Pereira was serving as a local guide on the journey.

Published

Australia’s multimillion-dollar campaign to attract Hollywood productions to its shores appears to be paying off.

The allure of Australia lies not only in its picturesque locations but also in its competitive financial incentives.

U.S. home prices surge 47%

American home prices are rising at faster pace now than in the last 20-years.

A recent analysis reveals a jaw dropping surge in the cost of American homes.

Since the start of 2020, U.S. home prices have surged 47% easily outstripping the gains seen in recent decades.

On top of that, home price growth so far this decade is on the verge of surpassing all the growth seen in the 2000s.

Many experts believe this decade’s housing market frenzy was ignited by a perfect storm — the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic triggering an unprecedented rush among buyers.

Tom Hutchens, the Executive Vice President of Production at Angel Oak Mortgage Solutions joins Veronica Dudo to discuss.
