Father-son journalists John and Ramsey Archibald, along with colleagues Ashley Remkus and Challen Stephens, won a Pulitzer Prize for their investigative reporting on police corruption in the town of Brookside, Alabama.

The Archibalds' work has also been recognized with other awards and was part of a larger series on for-profit policing in Alabama.
