About Cargo Chronicle
A reporting desk covering cargo theft: who is being hit, where, how, and what is being done about it.
What this site covers
Cargo theft is a freight problem, a law-enforcement problem, and an insurance problem at once, and it is usually reported as none of them — a local crime brief here, a vendor statistic there. This site follows it as a continuing beat: individual incidents and arrests, corridor-level data, the regulatory response, and explanations of how the methods actually work.
Coverage is organised by corridor, by tag, and — where a theft turns into a prosecution we keep following — by case, so a story can be read on its own or as part of the pattern it belongs to.
How it is sourced
Every article lists its sources, and every source is tiered P1, P2, or P3 by what kind of record it is. At least one source on every article must be a primary record or original reporting; a story that rests only on aggregation does not publish.
Corrections
Changes after publication are shown on the article — an updated date and a note saying what changed. Nothing is edited silently.
No advertising
There is no advertising on this site: no ad slots, no sponsored posts, no ad-network scripts, and no trackers serving them. Nothing about what gets covered depends on who might pay for it.
