Journalism has always been at its best when it calls power to account. For five years D.C. Witness has reported on every homicide in D.C., telling every story and gathering every bit of data. We believe the best accountability is full transparency.
Even though a daunting homicide number is mentioned briefly in the news, no one knows about the cases that often take years to proceed through court.
D.C. Witness wants to bring transparency to the criminal justice system by not only informing the public about these crimes and their progression through the justice system, but also by collecting data to help produce an end to violent crime.
Help us to keep holding the DC criminal justice system to account. Please donate to our cause.
