A Reporter's Life


Execution delayed

An overnight trip resulting in no execution was not what I'd expected when I set out Monday afternoon for San Quentin. But that's what happened. It was a wild, crazy ride and I will post links and maybe details at a point when I've had more than three hours of sleep in the last 40 hours.

I will say, though, that it was nice to get some recognition from journalists who work with respective organizations. I will also say that a few reporters, including one from a very large Southern California paper, asked some painfully stupid questions that even little ole' me could answer in her sleep.

Also, I've had radio interview requests from more than one radio station, regarding more than one case. But, in the midst of two very large cases that have national significance, I'm still getting disgruntled e-mails and messages from people wondering why I'm not covering every single detail of a local murder trial. At some point today, I realized it was only Tuesday. It feels more like Thursday.
