Pvt. Danny Chen, 1992-2011 →
A group of his superiors allegedly tormented Chen on an almost daily basis over the course of about six weeks in Afghanistan last fall. They singled him out, their only Chinese-American soldier, and spit racial slurs at him: “gook,” “chink,” “dragon lady.” They forced him to do sprints while carrying a sandbag. They ordered him to crawl along gravel-covered ground while they flung rocks at him....

call me "tim" →
A few years ago, I was working on a story about a Catholic priest who travels with the Ringling Brothers circus.

The woman identified him as the likely perpetrator, so the police called the man into their station to question him: Police called Hall into the station and issued him a citation. Hall denied any involvement with the...
