In the sultry haze of a Los Angeles summer night in 2013, the sudden and explosive crash of a speeding Mercedes would send shockwaves through the corridors of power and the realms of investigative journalism. A reporter, known for his devil may care approach and his ability to unearth the uncomfortable truths about military and surveillance overreach, died in that fiery car crash.
