A book about MS13 by Co-director @stevensdudley was shortlisted for @columbiajourn’s Lukas Prizes, honoring in-progress nonfiction. The book tells the story of the gang through its members, as well as why measures against the gang have failed.

@vanessaneumann Hi Dr. Neumann, I thought I'd reach out to you again to see if you might be available for an interview about your tri-border research. I'm an editor with InSight Crime. If you'd be willing, send me a DM on how best to get in touch with you. Appreciatively.

@raithelhuber I'm a reporter with @InSightCrime. I was wondering whether it would be possible to set up an interview about a seizure of ketamine in Colombia that was heading to China and the US. If so, please DM and let me know the best way to contact you. Appreciatively.
