FBI to contact Jude Law over phone hack claims

Source: BBC News

If the accusation is proved to be true, Rupert Murdoch's News Corporation could face charges in the US.

2. If the BBC knows the details of the FBI's investigation...

The FBI must have Barney Fife running it.

So much for this investigation...
