In 2004, Webb was found dead at the age of 49 from two gunshot wounds to the head. Police ruled it a suicide.
in a three-part exposé, investigative journalist Gary Webb reported that a CIA-backed guerrilla army in Nicaragua had used crack cocaine sales in Los Angeles’ black neighborhoods to fund an attempted coup of Nicaragua’s socialist government in the 1980s — and that the CIA may very well have known about it.
It sounds like a Tom Clancy novel, right? Except it actually happened.
