Crime reporter from Brooklyn breaks big story
Who was this kid from Brooklyn, now in his fifties, being interviewed nationally on Dateline NBC about Johnny Hincapie?
His name is Bill Hughes. He’s a former reporter who is now teaching at CUNY’s York College. So what?
Just that the Hincapie story was big news, big enough to rattle the New York DA’s Office, and Hughes was at the center of it.
