Princess Diana Verdict In


A coroner's jury has ruled today that Princess Diana and her boyfriend Dodi Al Fayed were unlawfully killed by reckless actions of the driver and the paparazzi in 1997.

A decision of unlawful killing means that the jury believed the reckless behavior of the driver and the paparazzi led to manslaughter. It was the most serious verdict available to the jury.

The couple and their driver died in Paris when their speeding car crashed while being chased by photographers.

The jury of six women and five men began deliberating last Wednesday after hearing six months of testimony from more than 240 witnesses.

They decided by a vote of 9-2 to blame the driver and the paparazzi for Diana's and Al Fayed's death
