For over 21 years, his work has uncovered corruption and crimes and helped victims know they are not alone. He has received well-deserved recognition for his work, including three prestigious Investigative Reporters and Editors awards, 25 Midsouth Emmys, and four regional Edward R. Murrow Awards. He is also a novelist who writes thrillers in his spare time. We’re speaking with Jeremy about how he found his way into investigative journalism, what it takes to hold wrongdoers accountable, and the value he sees in learning from failure.

Today's episode was produced by Katherine Ceicys.
