Dom Phillips

Dominic Mark Phillips (23 July 1964 – 5 June 2022) was a British freelance journalist. He wrote for ''The Guardian'' and ''The Washington Post'', and contributed to ''The Times'', the ''Financial Times'' and Bloomberg News, among others.

On 5 June 2022, he and Brazilian Bruno Pereira, an expert on indigenous peoples of Brazil, went missing in the remote Javari Valley in the far western part of the state of Amazonas in Brazil, one of the most remote zones in the rainforest. On 14 June, Amarildo da Costa da Oliveira allegedly confessed to shooting and killing Phillips and Pereira and led police to the men's bodies the following day. Provided by Wikipedia
