The CoDB Times released the first piece yesterday in a series that just started examining every single killing this year in some crummy police precinct in the Bronx, the 40th precinct. Apparently murder rates are so historically low that it's actually possible to do this now.
It wasn't "Making a Murderer" in depth, but it's pretty cool that every killing there all year is going to get some sort of publicity besides the usual "person got killed in the Bronx today" one-liner on the nightly news.
The first one seems to focus on the fact that the guy who machete'd this poor woman to death was obviously mentally ill and the state/city/system had no real way to do anything about it even though there were violent warning signs.
