The Metropolitan Police in Britain have announced, Rupert Murdoch's News International/News Corp, criminally phone hacked and wiretapped Roman Catholic priest, Richard Reardon, to gain private information on award winning Welsh singer and talk show host, Charlotte Church.

Charlotte Church

Church, who was a child prodigy that has performed for heads of state with her remarkable multiplatinum selling voice, has been constantly targeted by Murdoch's newspapers, looking for the worst possible scoops to print in the papers on the singer, who is a tabloid favorite in Britain.

However, the Murdochs and other key conspirators remain free and the FBI has not arrested anyone, though the crimes began and continue in News Corp's New York headquarters].
