Sarah Kelley made the leap to full-time freelance after 17 years in the newsroom. She previously helmed the editorial operations at Insider Louisville, an online local news startup, and LEO Weekly, Louisville's alternative newsweekly.
As a reporter, Sarah has pursued a wide range of beats, though much of her long-form writing has focused on criminal justice — from covering federal courts in Washington, D.C., to investigating prosecutorial misconduct in capital cases.
