Chris Palmer
What I Do
I cover federal courts and law enforcement, white-collar crime and public corruption, and other news at the intersection of law and politics.
My Background
I joined The Inquirer in 2013 and have spent time covering a variety of topics in Philadelphia, its suburbs, and the state Capitol in Harrisburg. For much of the past decade I've covered policing and law enforcement in Philadelphia, and, in 2022, I was part of a team that was named a finalist for a Pulitzer Prize for our coverage of the city's gun violence crisis.
I have a master's degree in journalism from New York University and a bachelor's degree from Bucknell University. I live in Philadelphia.
