INDEPENDENT REPORTING. DOCUMENTED EVIDENCE. STORIES THAT MATTER.
Front One News is an independent investigative media brand focused on criminal cases, public safety, bodycam video, missing persons, and the records behind the headlines.
BUILT FOR CASE-DRIVEN JOURNALISM.
Front One News was created to examine cases beyond the headline. Our reporting is designed to bring together official records, video, timelines, court filings, and verified facts so audiences can better understand what happened, what is known, and what questions remain.
Our coverage is national in scope and centered on cases where original records, public information, and visual evidence can add meaningful context.
THE STORIES AT THE CENTER OF FRONT ONE NEWS
Investigations
Case timelines, public records, court documents, and reporting that adds context beyond the initial headline.
Bodycam Videos
Law-enforcement video presented with verified facts, official records, and the context needed to understand what viewers are seeing.
Missing Persons
Coverage designed to keep attention on active cases while highlighting verified information from agencies, families, and public records.
Public Records
Police reports, dispatch records, court filings, video, and other source material that can help document how a case unfolded.
DOCUMENTS FIRST. CONTEXT ALWAYS.
Verify the Record
We prioritize original records, official sources, and direct documentation whenever available.
Separate Fact From Allegation
Charges, allegations, findings, and confirmed facts are presented as distinct categories rather than blurred together.
Add Context
Video and documents are strongest when paired with timelines, source material, and the surrounding circumstances.
Correct the Record
When credible new information changes the understanding of a story, our coverage should reflect that update clearly.
CREDIBILITY REQUIRES DISCIPLINE.
Front One News aims to distinguish documented facts from allegations, analysis, and opinion; identify the basis for our reporting; and avoid presenting accusations as established guilt. An arrest or criminal charge is not a conviction, and people accused of crimes are presumed innocent unless proven guilty in court.
We also recognize that criminal cases involve victims, families, witnesses, investigators, and communities. Our goal is to report consequential facts without losing sight of the people affected by them.
THE HEADLINE IS OFTEN ONLY THE BEGINNING.
Major cases are often reduced to a short clip, a press release, or a few lines of breaking-news copy. Front One News is built to go further—using records, video, timelines, and source-based reporting to show how a case developed and why the details matter.
INDEPENDENT. EVIDENCE-DRIVEN. ON THE FRONT LINE.
Front One News is building a national library of investigative reporting, bodycam coverage, missing-person cases, and public-records-based journalism.
