In 2025, DPI spoke with more than 100 journalists, providing media with DPI’s verified data and insightful analysis. More than 7.5 million web visitors viewed our comprehensive databases, case updates, and deeply researched reports this year. We’ve tracked every execution, every death sentence, every legislative change across all 50 states and the federal government—work no other organization does.
