Before this shorts program you will see episode 1 of DENIED a KXAN investigation. Texas law gives police discretion to withhold information if a suspect dies in custody. Legislative efforts to close that loophole have failed, but it has not stopped the families who have been denied video and other records detailing their loved ones’ final moments from speaking out. A KXAN investigation sheds light on the statewide need for police accountability, transparency and trust. Josh Hinkle Director of Investigations & Innovation will be in attendance to talk about the investigation.
