D.C. Witness jobs and careers

About D.C. Witness

No crime arouses as much passion and misinformation as homicide. But what has been lacking has been accurate information beyond the headline numbers to shape that national conversation and to help devise public policies to effectively tackle this national plague. D.C. Witness is a website founded in 2015 to provide just that information, tracking every homicide from act to judicial resolution and in the process informing the residents and policy makers of the District of Columbia about the trail of murders that often go underreported. We cover every single murder, with neither bias nor favor. We do this by providing internships to students interested in journalism, law enforcement and the legal system, putting them in the courtrooms to accurately record every step in the judicial process, giving them professional experience from which to launch their careers.

Founded in 2015 by Amos Gelb.
