The parents of Holly Wells and Jessica Chapman, two girls who were murdered in 2002, were visited by police investigating phone-hacking claims. The investigation was sparked by allegations that private investigator Glenn Mulcaire hacked into Milly Dowler's phone while she was missing in 2002. Mulcaire apologized to anyone "hurt or upset" by his actions.
