He assaulted a Durham police officer and a chaplain. His car had a gun and drugs in it. It was all on body cam video. Demario Holman was recently sentenced in court — to less than a year behind bars. Our investigation explores how that happened. @WRAL

Dental work in an apartment, a garage, and even a shed. The state dental board is noticing a troubling trend: People posing as dentists. Victims are lured in by the promise of saving a penny, only to pay the price later. My latest story: https://t.co/5SWDe3g3mh

That key card data tells a lot. Proud of Sarah for continuing to push for it.
Public records obtained by @WRAL Investigates after a years-long fight show Durham’s District Attorney checks into the courthouse on roughly half of work days. We found that’s much less than DAs in neighboring counties. https://t.co/KwPRMKG2VJ

DA Satana Deberry declined to be interviewed for this story. When I reached out, she asked to see the data. I sent it to her. She said because it was provided by the County, not her, it was not reliable. So, I asked her for the data she keeps. She told me she doesn’t have any.

A 15-year-old killed in Durham over the weekend was the best friend of Z’yon Person — the nine-year-old killed in a 2019 murder that shocked the city. Z’yon’s grandma told me that AJ, like Z’yon, is believed to be the unintended target of a stray bullet. https://t.co/0NLkqQEJEv
