After 22 years, CT Law Tribune reporter Tom Scheffey is leaving the weekly paper. He hopes to stay involved in Connecticut news; his work will be missed.

Throughout, I’ve been fighting the powerful human tendency to slip toward murk: striving for clearer expression, fair notice, open records and government accountability.
