Business. Violence. Concerns about profits. Questions of conscience. This is the untold story of the dealings between a US tire giant and Liberia’s Charles Taylor, the man who would become the first head of state convicted of crimes against humanity since the Nazi era.

Five soldiers injured in the same 2009 bomb blast are a case study in a new epidemic among America's troops, who are grappling with a combination of concussion and post-traumatic stress disorder.

She said she was raped; police said she lied. It was an easy case to close until two detectives cracked it back open. On 11 August 2008, 18-year-old Marie reported that a masked man had broken into her home and raped her. Within days, police - and even those closest to Marie - became suspicious of her story: details of the crime just didn’t seem plausible. Confronted with the seeming inconsistencies, Marie broke down and said her story was a fabrication - a bid for attention. The police convicted her of making a false report. She was vilified as a liar.

El 11 de agosto de 2008, Marie, de dieciocho años, informó que un hombre enmascarado irrumpió en su apartamento cerca de Seattle, Washington, y la violó. A los pocos días la policía e incluso los más cercanos a Marie desconfiaba de su historia. La policía rápidamente giró y comenzó a investigar a Marie. Frente a las inconsistencias en su historia y las dudas de los demás, Marie se rompió y dijo que su historia era una mentira, una oferta de atención. La policía acusó a Marie de denuncia falsa, y la tacharon de mentirosa.
