Research Inquiries & Source Corrections

The Claim Ledger Series · S. L. Harper

Have an original document, a firsthand account, a correction, or a research lead connected to one of the investigations? I welcome well-sourced information, especially primary records that help separate original claims from later retellings.

Send research inquiries to:

theclaimledger@keemail.me

Compose an email (opens your default email application, if one is configured). Otherwise, copy the address above into the email service you normally use.

What to Include

• The book or claim your inquiry concerns
• A document title, issuing organization, date, docket number, or archive link, when available
• What you believe the source establishes, corrects, or calls into question
• Whether information is firsthand, reported by someone else, or based on a published record

Please do not send confidential personal records or sensitive identifying information unless it is genuinely necessary and we have agreed on an appropriate way to handle it. Submitting a lead does not guarantee publication or a response.

For The Thin Blue Con, you can also consult the public document source index before sending a correction. Please mention the source key if one applies.

The Story Is Good. The Paper Trail Is Better.
