Raquel Rutledge
Investigative reporter
Raquel Rutledge is a public service investigative reporter who has received the nation's highest honors in journalism, including the Pulitzer Prize for Local Reporting. Her investigations have not only informed the public but also led to reforms — saving taxpayers millions of dollars by ending rampant fraud in state child care funding; forcing the U.S. State Department and TripAdvisor to acknowledge widespread reports of unsafe alcohol and assaults at high-end resorts in Mexico; ending unsafe practices that allowed deadly contamination of antiseptic wipes to be used in hospitals; and more. Born in Milwaukee, she is a graduate of the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee.
