Cece Woods is an independent investigative journalist and Editor-in-Chief of The Current Report, focusing on public corruption, institutional accountability, and high-profile criminal and civil cases. She has contributed reporting and commentary to The Epoch Times, covering public safety, law enforcement, and government oversight.

During the summer of 2018, Woods exposed a two-year law enforcement cover-up surrounding the Malibu Creek State Park shootings. Later that year, she provided the most comprehensive local news coverage of the Woolsey Fire, generating more than one million views across her social media platforms.

Since 2020, Woods was the only journalist consistently reporting on ongoing public corruption involving former Los Angeles Metro CEO Phil Washington.

Over the course of her 15-year career, Woods has maintained a spotless professional record, with no retractions, takedowns, or corrections resulting from inaccuracies or legal challenges. Her work is grounded in rigorous fact-checking, editorial independence, and a commitment to public-interest journalism that prioritizes accuracy, accountability, and transparency.
