Yesterday was an interview with Jill Leovy, an LA Times journalist who has spent much of the last ten years imbedded with the LA police, especially homicide detectives.
The book primarily deals with the large number of unsolved homicides in the black community. There are some interesting parts about the type of law-enforcement in the black community, but the most interesting really relates to how everyone knows who commits these murders, yet no one talks because of the community intimidation. Murder and intimidation are open as methods of creating power.
Another interesting part is her discussion of a homicide detective who sounds a lot like a real life Gorin from Law & Order: Criminal Intent in how he questions witnesses and suspects.
An interesting insight
