Timothy Masters for 5280

If you’re ever interested in riling up a defense attorney, just mention the case of Timothy Masters.  He spent nine years, five months, and 12 days in prison on a life sentence for a murder that he had nothing to do with.  The case that was brought against him was based almost entirely on …

Grim Sleeper for TIME Magazine -Part I

It’s admittedly a strange photograph to lead with.  It’s empty, it’s bleak, and there is definitely no moment to speak of.  But the space itself is a portrait of a place that bears a certain significance to the story it’s hooked to.  The pile of rubbish marks the exact spot where Lachrica Jefferson’s body …
