The Marshall Project is delighted to announce the launch of its third local newsroom — this time in St. Louis, which will include two investigative reporters, an engagement reporter and a partnerships coordinator.
The reporting team will all be based in the St. Louis area. The Marshall Project - St. Louis will combine journalistic horsepower from The Marshall Project’s national newsroom with a local team to deepen local criminal justice coverage in Missouri. The issues include the death penalty, the school-to-prison pipeline, re-entry and healthcare in prisons.
“Our assembled team of reporters will bring fresh eyes and decades of experience to cover the criminal justice system. I’m extremely excited for the work we will do in St. Louis and around Missouri,” said Marlon A. Walker, managing editor of local, who has deep ties in St. Louis, where he previously worked at the St. Louis Post-Dispatch.
