In Athens, a British aid worker known for her compassion and service to others was found dead, her body concealed inside a suitcase — a discovery that transformed a disappearance into a murder investigation. An Afghan boxer has been charged with her killing, a case that may never have reached resolution without the quiet courage of his own wife, who chose to speak when silence would have been easier. Her death reminds us that those who dedicate their lives to protecting the vulnerable are not themselves protected from the world's cruelty, even in the heart of a European capital.
