2011 LJWorld Investigations
In 2011, our staff worked diligently investigating a wide variety of topics important to our readers. Some of those ideas came from brainstorming, some from interested readers, and a few from the all-too-mysterious “anonymous source.”
Here’s a look at a few of the topics we tackled this year:
• Farm Aid: Where does the money go?
• Local charity not what is seems; a multi-state scheme in the name of veterans?
• DNA evidence may be answer to decades-old unsolved mystery
• Despite sex offender registration laws, offenders who leave state get lost in shuffle
• Will new DUI law really keep the worst of the worst off the road?
• KU ticket scandal comes to an end
• For more than a decade, serial rapist baffles police
• After yet another head-on collision on K-10, cable barriers urged
