  • Riveting

    The Raven is a fabulous ride through the underworld of privilege and power. It’s a collision between inept investigators and prosecutors and the defensive attorneys who were ready to exploit their weaknesses. Tim Livingston is a sensational investigative journalist, personality, and storyteller.

  • Full of Surprises

    Never imagined this story would lead to a link with Art Moddell and the Cleveland Browns then back to the NFL and the Baltimore Ravens. Rap music even played a role. It is a sad story all around, especially for friends and family of Jacinth Baker and Richard Lollar. Thought-provoking, and the reporter made a conscientious effort to lay out the facts impartially.
