Calendar – Past Event

On Feb. 12, 2005, Sister Dorothy Stang, a 73-year-old nun from Ohio, was shot six times at point-blank range and left to die on a muddy road in an Amazon jungle.  Why was she killed?  What was done in the aftermath of her death?  And what were the implications for the future of the Brazilian rainforest?
