Joe Domanick is an American investigative reporter. Domanick has written primarily about law enforcement and criminal justice, particularly in Los Angeles.[1][2][3][4] He has been a Senior Fellow for Criminal Justice of USC’s Institute for Justice and Journalism[5][6] and a columnist and contributing reporter for the LA Weekly[7]. His investigative reporting for LA Weekly on the LAPD earned a 1991 Los Angeles Press Club award.[8][9]

Domanick is the former Associate Director of the Center on Media, Crime, and Justice at New York’s John Jay College of Criminal Justice (CUNY).[10] He has written four books on law enforcement and criminal justice in California:

  • Blue: The LAPD and the Battle to Redeem American Policing (Simon & Schuster, 2015). In his review of the book, New York Times editor Mark Horowitz wrote that, “Domanick gets everything right ... His dramatic account of the Los Angeles Police Department’s recent fall and rise is steeped in his city’s rich history, its fraught racial and ethnic conflicts and its complex demographics."[11]

Domanick holds a graduate degree from the USC Annenberg School of Journalism, where he studied under A.J. Langguth.[15]
