Since December, 48 people have died at protests in Peru. @tiefenthaeler and I closely examined eight of those deaths to show how the military and national police used lethal tactics to crack down on anti-government protests. nytimes.com/2023/03/16/wor…

When the police dismantled a pro-Palestinian encampment at the Univ. of Virginia, some professors put their own safety and job security on the line to protect student protesters. In our video, faculty members give us a closer look at what happened. nytimes.com/video/us/10000…

The scene at George Washington Univ today, where pro-Palestinian protesters set up an encampment mere blocks from the White House to join in a national call for an end to Israel’s war in Gaza and divestment by universities from weapons manufacturers linked to the conflict.

After a fast-moving wildfire killed scores of people along Chile's coast last month, residents and firefighters told us that a lack of water to fire hydrants had hampered efforts to save homes and slow the fire's advance. Our video report: nytimes.com/2024/03/16/wor…

After we reported on the case of a 15-year-old roofer who fell and died during his first day on the job, the Department of Labor began investigating. Now they've settled with the Alabama roofing company that sent him up 50 feet with no safety gear, but for just a $117,000 fine.

Children are barred from working on roofs in the U.S. b/c it's so dangerous. One slip can be fatal. And yet, thousands of child migrants are doing just that. Our investigation shows how these "ruferitos" are risking their lives on America's roofs. #commentsContainer" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">nytimes.com/interactive/20…

We filmed Operation Lone Star's stepped up tactics at the border in El Paso to meet the uncontrolled flow of migrants, including cat-and-mouse pursuits and over 20 miles of concertina wire — tactics that some consider "inhumane." nytimes.com/2023/10/07/us/…

As @FiscaliaPeru investigates 49 civilian deaths, few precedents for justice: "Prosecutors have not won a single conviction against police or military officers or their superiors for killings at protests," according to lawyers and activists. @mitrataj nytimes.com/2023/05/24/wor…

I was in Tijuana this week reporting on the scene as #Title42 expired on May 11. On Friday morning, we accompanied Antonio & his family, who are fleeing violence in the Mexican state of Michoacán, to their long-awaited asylum appointment. 🎁 link: nyti.ms/3O90ofk
