Even though that Greek source says "strangled," it's an English-language Greek source.

I think it is a mistranslation of πνίγω which can mean drown, strangle, suffocate, or choke, depending on the context. And I think the reporter is doing a lazy translation, and not checking the context here. If he checked the context, the best translation is "suffocated."
Drowning, choking, smothering and strangling are all examples of asphyxiation so maybe since they know she was asphyxiated they assumed she was strangled?

Absolutely heartbreaking.
Their beautiful baby has lost both their Mummy & Daddy.

RIP beautiful Caroline

I am not sure justice looks like an arrest... anything can happen. What does justice look like in a case like this anyway?

@caylee17799

From that very early (in the case) media interview with crime editor Lambropoulos, your feelings and instincts regarding the full implications of Lambropoulous' usage of the word ανατροπή, "plot twist" or "overturning/refutation (of the narrative)" were 100% correct!
That man has earned my respect. He was such a professional, and was always asking the right questions. Kudos to the entire police force, as well. It seems they had him under their radar since the very beginning, but let him believe that they were investigating a "robbery", instead of him. They even managed to extract a confession, which is huge. I just hope that this doesn't mean that he's gonna serve less time. Jail time is already a joke in Greece.
Still how I wish me, and you, and mr Lambropoulos, and all of us who suspected him were wrong....

An important element was the fact that the transfer by helicopter is not a normal procedure followed by the Police, to receive a simple witness. Authorities took this action, as they had information that the 32-year-old was planning to flee abroad, specifically to Turkey.

For this reason, he sent a helicopter from Athens that picked up the 32-year-old and transported him to GADA within a short time.

The police, of course, did not tell him that he was a suspect and that there was evidence against him. Instead, he was told that there was a person who had been arrested and had to go immediately to Athens to identify him.

We had the MSM reporter today saying that, according to B's earlier statements, CC was suffocated with a pillow. Since B has now confessed to her murder, I think it's fair to assume that suffocation with a pillow was the cause of death (assuming the MSM report is accurate).

So I think the word "strangled" here is a lazy translation, which is better translated as "suffocation", until I see some concrete reporting to change my mind.

Just thinking about Caroline's parents, he attended her funeral and memorial playing the grieving husband. And he's been caring for their baby knowing he killed her Mummy.
And that poor dog too!

I think he was a total control freak and he was loosing the control he had over Caroline.

And also for Hailey Dunn, whose murderer was finally arrested after more than ten years. Also Suzanne Morphew and so many others. I wish every case of Domestic Violence was solved this quickly.

Rest in eternal peace, beautiful Caroline. May you watch over your precious baby girl and your parents. May Lydia grows up to become a happy, healthy, strong young lady, just like you would have wanted her to be. And may your killer never gets to see the light of day ever again. I'm so, so, so sorry we, as a society, failed to protect you.
Please may I ask, and I do so without sarcasm and I’m being totally genuine in my question but how have we as a society failed to protect Caroline in your opinion?

Brilliant tactic by the Greek police

If he had any intelligence at all, he must have known his web of lies was starting to unravel.

it was a casual remark, showing how pleased we are that there has been an arrest. It was also an acknowledgement of how people from around the world have been here together in the thread sharing information.

Oh that's where the talk of LE interviewing an employee might have come in.

"Among other things, a key factor in the development of the research was the testimony of a person who went to the couple's maisonette to do work."

Yes, the cause of death was said to be asphyxiation due to suffocation, but I was wondering if it was a word similar to asphyxiation that was mistranslated, since I thought you said it was a word that can mean choking, suffocation, drowning, or strangulation. Imo
