I want to tell you a story about body cameras and *Derek Chauvin*

What Chauvin did to George Floyd, kneeling on his neck, was his move.

He had done to others.

It was all recorded by body cams.

But the footage was kept secret.

And Chauvin was left unpunished

NEW: Railroad officials have lied, spied and bribed to keep workers’ injuries off the books. “Don’t put your job on the line for another employee.” propublica.org/article/railro…

Tennessee’s Dept. of Children’s Services says the Richard L. Bean youth detention center has improved its seclusion practices. But the latest inspection reports from the facility show it may be stretching the rules to lock kids up alone.

I'm so proud of Idaho Statesman's latest collab with ProPublica, a project incorporating literally hundreds of voices all across Idaho.

The state hasn’t done an official assessment of school building conditions in 30 years. So we tried to fill the gap. idahostatesman.com/news/local/edu…

Asia Fields, Becca Savransky, Anna Donlan, Peter DiCampo and team just published one of the purest examples yet.

How bad are conditions in Idaho schools? Consider: At Heyburn Elementary in the St. Maries School District, a stairwell at the front entrance was turned into the music classroom. And at another school, photo class is held in a former storage room. propublica.org/article/idaho-…

NEW: Administrators deciding who receives insurance coverage for medical procedures might just be doctors who've been drummed out of medicine. Fascinating story from Patrick Rucker, David Armstrong and Doris Burke for ProPublica and The Capitol Forum.

How bad are conditions in Idaho schools? Consider: In 2022, Laura Woras found hot water shooting out of a wall in her music classroom. The next year, it happened again. 'The leak made us feel like there was yet another way our school is falling apart.' propublica.org/article/idaho-…
