'The soldiers broke in and assaulted my daughter as we slept'

Free us, Trump: we’re the white-collar ‘martyrs’ of January 6

Oct 5, 2024 | thetimes.com | Louise Callaghan |Heather Elliott |Joey D’Urso |Federica De Caria

To the outside world, Thomas Sibick seemed to have it made. He was 35 years old with a master’s degree in public health and a good job as an administrator. He lived in a flat with his girlfriend in his home town of Buffalo, New York. His father Eugene was a successful dentist, his mother a teacher, and when Sibick and his three brothers were growing up they would spend school holidays in Florida or at the family’s second home in Canada.
Paralysed at 15, Olympic gold hope at 30 - meet Georgie Brayshaw

Jul 20, 2024 | thetimes.com | Rick Broadbent |Federica De Caria

This is a story about pain, the joy of it and how it can inspire. It involves disaster, triumph, a horse and nine days in a coma. From being paralysed to Paris, Georgie Brayshaw has already won. “You know if you’re in pain you’re giving your absolute all,” says the world champion rower in her bouncy Yorkshire accent. “That’s what you want out of this sport. You want to give part of your soul.”Brayshaw’s status as an Olympian is good for the soul, because it has taken a lot.
Death from above: watch Ukraine’s Vampire drone take on Russian troops

May 17, 2024 | thetimes.com | Federica De Caria |Anthony Loyd |Eastern Ukraine |near Lyman

The Ukrainian drone crews kill Russian soldiers in different ways, and say different things as they do so. In the darkness of a summer night, the remote operators of the Vampire hexacopters follow a precise set of instructions before dropping their bombs on the enemy’s infantrymen. Yet when the kamikaze FPV drone teams kill, there is a heated rush of words as they send their explosives-packed craft hurtling down onto the Russian forces.

I worked undercover in one of UK’s most dangerous jails - without checks

Mar 27, 2024 | shorturl.at | Paul Morgan-Bentley |Federica De Caria

It is just before dawn and I am one of dozens of staff arriving to start our shifts at HMP Bedford. Walking through the prison’s front door, I flash an ID to someone on reception and then carry on walking, straight through security. I pass a stack of trays — the kind used in airports for the x-ray baggage scanners — but no one is using them, and the prison’s scanner appears to be switched off.

HMP Bedford security lapses spark prison investigation

Mar 26, 2024 | thetimes.co.uk | Paul Morgan-Bentley |Federica De Caria

An urgent investigation has begun into prison security after an undercover journalist was hired at one of the country’s most dangerous jails and was then able to walk inside and interact with prisoners without security searches. Last month a Times reporter was hired by an agency to work at HMP Bedford amid a nationwide staffing shortage. On two out of eight days that he worked at the prison, there was no one manning the security scanners at the front entrance when he arrived for work.
Watch our journalists go undercover in the postal service

Dec 16, 2023 | thetimes.co.uk | Louise Eccles |Dominic Hauschild |Jack Feeney |Yasmin Butt |Federica De Caria

On December 5, two journalists from The Sunday Times went undercover as postal workers at Royal Mail delivery offices in Southampton and Wandsworth, south London, to investigate claims that it was prioritising parcels over letters. A job on the Royal Mail website advertised the position of “postperson with driving”, and both reporters applied. The advert said that candidates should be a “people person” and “happy walking for long periods and working outside in any weather”.
