Reply to Brother of Grant Wahl believes he was murdered in Qatar by Gambitzillas

“Wahl suddenly collapsed in the press box of Lusail Iconic Stadium in Doha on December 9, 2022, while covering Argentina's quarterfinal match against the Netherlands.[24][25] Local paramedics responded quickly,[26] and treated him for 30 minutes before taking him to the hospital.[27] Wahl's brother Eric said he was given CPR. Wahl was pronounced dead early on December 10 at a local hospital.[27] Eric Wahl said his brother received death threats and believed Wahl was killed, and said the family is in touch with U.S. State Department and White House officials.”

Five days before his death, Wahl wrote:

“My body finally broke down on me. Three weeks of little sleep, high stress and lots of work can do that to you. What had been a cold over the last 10 days turned into something more severe on the night of the USA-Netherlands game, and I could feel my upper chest take on a new level of pressure and discomfort. I didn’t have Covid (I test regularly here), but I went into the medical clinic at the main media center today, and they said I probably have bronchitis. They gave me a course of antibiotics and some heavy-duty cough syrup, and I’m already feeling a bit better just a few hours later. But still: No bueno.”
