Receiving “threatening” legal letters is a “normal part of the investigative process,” according to ICIJ’s deputy director Marina Walker Guevara.

Walker Guevara was responding to a reader’s question about whether ICIJ and its partners had been threatened.

It was just one of many questions our team – which also included our director Gerard Ryle and reporter Will Fitzgibbon – answered on Facebook last week.

The team also answered questions such as as:

Why did we decide to publish the Paradise Papers now?

Why don’t we release all of the documents we found in the leak?

How do we choose the media partners we work with?

What do you think of the reactions to the investigation so far?

How would you summarize the Paradise Papers?
