Three years ago, I got some footage that I couldn’t get out of my mind.

It showed the first police killing captured on body-worn cameras in NY.

The NYPD didn’t want anyone to see it.

It eventually launched me on the biggest story I’ve ever done, w/ @NYTmag

There are no words to describe this heartbreak, and yet @SarahAWildman manages to find them. The love and pain and vitality of Orli in this piece. https://t.co/UmAbTPO0cm

@BrentNYT Monell! I'd know that nose anywhere

[Alec Hamilton @alecchamilton]

"What you can see here is the blue wall of silence being built." @ericuman and @michaelhayes talk with @wnyc's @MichaelHillNJ about new tapes that show how NYPD investigates shootings by one of their own.

NEW:

Harlan Crow paid Thomas for property.

The law explicitly requires disclosure of property sales.

Thomas didn't disclose anything.

Here's Thomas' signature on the undisclosed deal.
