Undoubtedly, over the past week, you have read the scandal revolving around the Rupert Murdoch-owned paper, where a young murdered school girl had her phone repeatedly hacked by the paper in an effort to listen to voicemails.
Because the voicemails kept being deleted from the phone, the girl's carrier and parents believed her to be alive for days after her disappearance.
Hoare made it public that former editor Andy Coulson was fully aware of the hacking, and even encouraged it.
Police say they have no reason to believe there was anything suspicious in the journalist's death and did confirm that he was fired from the paper "for drugs and drinking problems."
Coulson was arrested this week as part of a police investigation into misconduct at the paper.
