Why subscribe?

My goal is to provide nuance and depth to the national conversation around criminal justice issues. Those who want to avoid the sensationalized and fear-mongering coverage of these topics should subscribe.

ALSO, you get to hear my thoughts about the journalism industry, being an author and why shows like The Wire and The Shield are head and shoulders above any other TV shows ever created.
