In an interview on “Fox News Sunday”, President Trump said that the Saudi Crown Prince had told him as many as five times — including as recently as a few days ago — that he had no involvement in the killing. Trump added that who is responsible for the killing of Khashoggi may never be known.

Khashoggi, a columnist for The Washington Post, had been missing since he entered the Saudi consulate in Istanbul on Oct. 2. The Saudi authorities said that Khashoggi died in a "brawl" inside its consulate.
