His family was notified on the 10th, according to this story, it had to be before then, they had to make an ID before contacting the family. Last time the family heard from him was on the 9th.

Picked up on the 24th of March by whomever.

Told family he was leaving the country on 30th of March.

Suit filed on 5th of April. (I still think this suit had nothing to do with his release -- time zone wise.)

Released on the 6th of April.

Last contact with the family on the 9th of April.

Last seen leaving hotel on the 10th of April.

Body found the 8th of May.

Video released on May 11th, around lunchtime if I recall correctly.

Is that right?

Apparently his body was found on the 8th:

HEADLINE: Who Killed Nick Berg?
(snip)

While this video shows a human body having its head chopped off, it does not necessarily portray an act of murder. Berg's headless body was found dumped on a Baghdad roadside on Saturday, May 8.

Three days later, the "live beheading" clip was uploaded from London to the Malaysian website www.al-ansar.biz. The statement in the video is signed with al-Zarqawi's name, dated May 11. After Fox News and CNN had downloaded the video, it disappeared from the site.
