Baltimore's often called the most northern Southern town. It has a distinct essence. It's definitely post-industrial, definitely Rust Belt, very working-class. I grew up outside of Washington, and I felt I was moving to a completely different place when I moved 30 miles north out of college.

For a detective or street police, the only real satisfaction is the work itself when a cop spends more and more time getting aggravated with the details, he's finished.

The why is what makes journalism an adult game. The why is what makes policy coherent and useful.
