A judge blocked enforcement of #Florida’s immigration law as unconstitutional. Police arrested 25 people anyway -- most of them after being stopped by Florida Highway Patrol for minor traffic violations. www.tampabay.com/investigatio... via @tampabaytimes.bsky.social

After a judge blocked Florida's immigration law, police arrested dozens. Most were pulled over for minor traffic infractions. One was arrested after he was an apparent victim in a hit-and-run crash. Many are in ICE custody. A must-read from this amazing team: www.tampabay.com/investigatio...

Congratulations to Zachary Sampson, Shreya Vuttaluru, Bethany Barnes and the whole team at the Tampa Bay Times on winning this month's Sidney for their sweeping investigation of manatee deaths in Florida and the state's declining water quality.

The Tampa Bay Times wins the May Sidney for their first-of-its-kind investigation into the water quality crisis that is killing the state’s manatees:

ecological catastrophe in florida but no worries they are focusing on the real threats: fluoridated water project.tampabay.com/investigatio...

A @tampabaytimes.bsky.social investigation found hundreds of #Florida waterways have shown rising contamination over the past 25 years. Here's where to find them. www.tampabay.com/investigatio...

The fine folks at The Sunday Long Read let me pick my favorite stories this week—and it was a good week!

"Rehabbers dumped box after box of romaine lettuce into the water. The young manatee’s next meal was never in question. But her future is." —Zachary T. Sampson, @shreyavut.bsky.social @betsbarnes.bsky.social @tampabaytimes.bsky.social longreads.com/2025/04/04/w...

To understand the crisis manatees face, @shreyavut.bsky.social, Zack Sampson, & @betsbarnes.bsky.social spoke with over 100 scientists, politicians, & environmentalists. Here’s how they revealed that decades of pollution pushed Florida’s waterways to the brink. project.tampabay.com/investigatio...

"We have a 5-alarm fire here.” @tampabaytimes.bsky.social has put together a comprehensive look at the manatee crisis and what it says about efforts to combat pollution. Really impressive work. project.tampabay.com/investigatio...

When Florida's manatees started dying @shreyavut.bsky.social, Zack Sampson, & @betsbarnes.bsky.social began to ask, why? They found that the state's waterways were being polluted by chemicals. A @tampabaytimes.bsky.social' reporting project. project.tampabay.com/investigatio...

In trove of Farmers Insurance internal records, @susien.bsky.social + @meganmunce.bsky.social found the insurer shut down a probe of inaccurate rebuild estimates when wildfire survivors began to sue.

NEW: Florida touts spending millions of dollars to reduce water pollution. But the efforts aren’t working. Instead, hundreds of waterways have become dangerously contaminated. From the amazing Zack Sampson, Shreya Vuttaluru and Bethany Barnes: project.tampabay.com/investigatio...

The depth of reporting from Tampa Bay Times journalists Zachary T. Sampson, Shreya Vuttaluru and Bethany Barnes is stunning and extraordinary. : #WastingAway gets to the heart of why Florida’s gentle giants – the manatees – have been perishing. A MUST READ. project.tampabay.com/investigatio...

👀 Groundbreaking environmental #journalism crunching mountains of data, using scientific experts, to document poorly regulated #Florida water pollution from sewage, fertilizer and manure, and the manatees who died from it. Tampa Bay Times project.tampabay.com/investigatio...

No one does investigations quite like @tampabaytimes.bsky.social. This latest one will take your breath away: project.tampabay.com/investigatio...

Rampant pollution caused thousands of manatees to starve & conditions in #Florida waterways are getting worse. A special investigation by @tampabaytimes.bsky.social project.tampabay.com/investigatio...

“Times reporters conducted a first-of-its-kind statewide analysis, pinpointing alarming levels of chemicals in nearly 1 in 4 waterways. The Florida Department of Environmental Protection touts spending millions of dollars to reduce the contamination. But the efforts aren’t working”

By the time 15-yr-old Jázmin Pellegrini was found dead in an SF driveway last April, Chronicle reporters Cynthia Dizikes and Joaquin Palomino had already spent months investigating California's for-profit psychiatric hospitals. They soon found her story epitomized the crisis inside these facilities.

They arrived at the United States border from around the world, hoping to seek asylum. Instead, they were detained, shackled and flown by the U.S. military to a faraway country, Panama. Our exclusive look at a new front in Pres. Trump’s immigration crackdown:
