Frank Teruggi

Frank Teruggi, Jr. (1949–1973) was an American student, journalist,[1] and member of the Industrial Workers of the World,[2] from Chicago, Illinois, who became one of the victims of General Augusto Pinochet's military shortly after the September 11, 1973 Pinochet coup d'état against Socialist President Salvador Allende.

A Chilean court in 2014 found that the United States played a key role in Teruggi's murder.[3]
