Stephen Barr Award
ASBPE's Stephen Barr Award, the association's top individual prize for feature writing, went to Kevin Davis, managing editor of ABA Journal, for "Under Questioning: The Chicago police legacy of extracting false confessions is costing the city millions." His powerful and deeply backgrounded study examined years of abuses by Chicago police in interrogating suspects.
This is the 16th Stephen Barr Award to be presented. The award is named for one of ASBPE's most honored journalists, who died of cancer in 2002 at the age of 43. It recognizes work that shows inventiveness, insight, balance, depth of investigation, and impact on readers. A check for $500 accompanies the award, endowed by Barr's family and administered by the ASBPE Foundation (www.asbpe.org/asbpe-foundation).
