An overlooked story tucked away in the back pages of the press has come to my attention relates to the 'unexplained' death of former News of the World journalist Sean Hoare who was found dead at his Watford home on Monday morning.
Interestingly, Hoare was the man who made claims in the New York Times that he was actively encouraged by Andy Coulson to 'hack phones'.
Hertfordshire Police have issued a brief statement that the death is unexplained but 'not thought to be suspicious. Police investigations into this incident are ongoing.'
Far be it for me to suggest that there is anything untoward going on here. I'm sure that the timing is nothing more than an unfortunate co-incidence...
