This collaboration: reporters had narratives, they had data, they had evidence. The challenge here was to find a visual approach to explain the concept of qualified immunity, a legal process by which police are able to avoid being held accountable in cases of excessive force. I was lucky to partner here with Feilding Cage, who always elevates my work. Our task was to make the complex accessible and bring the emotion of the topic in front of readers. The series won the Pulitzer in the explanatory category.
