Hey Jenn, fwiw, Nick credited CalMatters in the piece, which was kind. I thought the reporting was excellent, stuff in there I haven’t read before. I’m a fan of Nick’s work overall, and I felt like this profile was unique and well done.

Their families won’t know what happened to them. They’ll be shackled, whisked away to another state, forced to subsist for days on potato chips, apples, water, the occasional cold sandwich. They’ll sleep on the floor with mylar blankets, without access to showers. calmatters.org/investigatio...
