Honored that my Audible series Pulse: The Untold Story has won a Peabody Award.

Produced by Western Sound, the series reexamines the 2016 Pulse nightclub shooting and explores whether the FBI could have prevented it.

In November 2024, we had a hearing before a judge. And recently, I found out that we won! The City is required to turn over copies of audio interrogations played in open court. If you're trying to get records access, don't give up! #CPRA #publicrecords 4/4

While reporting and co-writing #Strangeland Season 3, we were dismayed to learn the originals were destroyed by the court years ago.

But we were able to reconstruct the original murder trial based on paper court records, including police interrogation transcripts. 1/

[Nicole McNulty @nicole_mcnulty]

Anything played in court, though, is open record. And we wanted to hear what might have been lost in translation during interrogations. After a back and forth with the LAPD, I found a lawyer who agreed to take on my case pro bono. We filed suit against the LAPD soon after. 3/

Great piece here by @LoganMDavis.

Part of the Trump Admin's strategy is to overload our thinking circuits, so we can't focus on any detail of their many destructive & arbitrary acts, but Logan has identified an important pattern within the mayhem.

Took a jaunt to San Diego this evening with @nicole_mcnulty to see @TaylorMatthewD, @BradleyOnishi, @drleahpayne, and other phenomenal scholars discuss Christian nationalism and the 2024 elections.

Not the most *comforting* talk I’ve ever heard, but one of the most important.

[Matthew D. Taylor @TaylorMatthewD]

I was at the New Apostolic Reformation's "Million Women March" event on the National Mall today.

I gave comments to several reporters there but thought I'd offer a more extended set of reflections on this very alarming Christian nationalist episode. 1/

Spent most of last year reporting and writing the new season of #Strangeland. We dig into the life and death of Haing Ngor, and the #LAPD investigation that led to the conviction of three teens. Incredibly grateful to all the sources who spoke with me! https://t.co/hAfVxmXKlv

Yet again, Donald Trump calls for suspending the US Constitution so he can be restored to power. Will this be front-page news?

PART TWO: Andrew Wommack's Charis Bible College is, in the words of one source, in "full-on Prosperity Gospel mode."

They promise that believers can attract health and wealth simply by having enough faith -- but the teachings have a dark side. 1/

When I first started looking into what was happening in Woodland Park, I found Logan’s writing. He’s been working tirelessly to help people understand what’s happening at Charis Bible College. It’s frightening. Please read.

[Logan M. Davis @LoganMDavis]

I hope you will read this.

I have spent the last 6 months investigating a controversial Bible college outside of Woodland Park. What started as curiosity slowly turned into fascination, and then horror.

I want to tell you about Charis Bible College. 1/

Update: U of L hospital informed Virginia C. and family that, as of 4:30 Monday afternoon, a transfer to Guatemala has been put on hold indefinitely out of concern for her father’s health.

Virginia said this felt like "a small piece of good news among a bunch of bad news."

It's not just Justice Alito.

Here's the "Appeal to Heaven" flag flying outside of conservative powerbroker Leonard Leo's home in Maine.

“Let’s talk about the Appeal to Heaven flag. Cuz a lot of you may know it from Dutch Sheets” who “had seen it in some visions and dreams that he had …” - Mercedes Sparks, assistant to New Apostolic Reformation (NAR) leader Lance Wallnau, 1/5/21 (Sheets is a NAR leader too.)

[Nicole McNulty @nicole_mcnulty]

A lot of the coverage of Justice Alito flying the Appeal to Heaven flag points to Jan 6, but it goes far deeper.

[Frederick Clarkson @FredClarkson]

Anyone left a little baffled about the New Apostolic Reformation after reading the NYT's story about Justice Alito flying the battle flag of the NAR, may find relief in A Reporters Guide to the New Apostolic Reformation, by André Gagné & me. @RDispatches https://t.co/alDUoaRp88
