Tom Voyce nearly three times over drink-drive limit when he drowned, inquest hears
"From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging."
"At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story. The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls."
"The 43-year-old's body was found days later after a major search, in deep water. An inquest at County Hall in Morpeth heard that Mr Voyce had attended a shoot at his brother-in-law's farm on 7 December 2024, then spent the evening with him and two other men in the Queen's Head pub in Glanton. Hugh Wood, the brother of Mr Voyce's widow Anna, told the hearing that he last saw his brother-in-law at about 11.45pm in the bar."
The Independent covers major issues including reproductive rights, climate change and Big Tech, using investigations and documentaries to examine financial and political influences. The outlet emphasizes accessible journalism without paywalls and requests donations to fund reporters and on-the-ground coverage across the political spectrum. A separate inquest revealed that former England rugby player Tom Voyce drowned while attempting to cross Northumberland's River Aln in a Toyota Hilux during Storm Darragh. The inquest heard he had attended a shoot and later spent the evening drinking in a pub; his body was found days later after a major search in deep water.
