Our POV: Serial killers are a manifestation of larger socio-economic machinations at play--they're not masterminds or bogeymen.

The sign was there for anyone with eyes to see.

The judicial branch isn’t subject to the Freedom of Information Act in Illinois, which makes our jobs as reporters covering the Cook County court system more difficult. But it didn’t stop our team from obtaining public records from other agencies and fighting back when they failed to follow the law.

Wherever we mention rethinking America’s silly notion that militarized policing & mass incarceration keeps people safe, the kneejerk reply often involves mention of serial killers.

Yet, this Black lawyer turned prison & police abolitionist must remind you that police NEVER arrive and save the day.
