This week I sat down with an old grade school classmate who I haven't seen in nearly 40 years for an unforgettable interview. Ivan Cantu is scheduled to be executed next week in Texas for a crime he says he didn't commit. cnn.com/2024/02/23/us/ivan-c…

Scot Peterson, the “Coward of Broward,” stood by as a slaughter unfolded at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School. Does the blame lie with him, his training—or a society in denial about what it would take to stop mass shootings? @ThompsonJamieL reports: theatln.tc/C2VHHaHu

It makes a difference when @skiphol is asking the questions. @AAKnopf

A stunner from @skiphol that will leave tears on your face and a lump in your throat. Today is the last day for the House Community Safety Committee to vote HB 2744, mentioned in this article, out of committee. Will they do it? @madkisonews is at the Capitol following the bill.
A year ago, before the Uvalde school shooting, Kimberly Mata-Rubio had never been on a plane or given a speech or scolded a U.S. senator. But in grieving her ten-year-old daughter, who was murdered in the shooting, Mata-Rubio found her fight. texasmonthly.com/news-politi…

A new Netflix series revisits a string of murders that occurred near League City in the 80s and 90s. In addition to appearing in the documentary, @skiphol interviewed Robert Abel, the former NASA engineer once suspected in the killings, in 1999. trib.al/XrXsvqY

Still thinking about my visit to #Dallas #bookstore @deepvellumbooks - what a great place AND the nation's biggest publisher of books in translation. Right now they also have SIGNED copies of CODE OF SILENCE - get 'em while they're hot! w/@willevans @skiphol

What’s in a name? Well, everything, especially if it belongs to a war hero on a Washington DC memorial wall. The Korean War wall of remembrance goes up Wednesday morning, and it’s full of ridiculous mistakes. Like what? 1/
