Phoenix
Cody Lillich joined Arizona's Family as an investigative producer in January 2022. Prior to Arizona, Cody was an investigative producer for WVUE-TV in New Orleans where he worked alongside the station's chief investigative reporter Lee Zurik. During his time in New Orleans, Cody was part of an investigative team honored with multiple regional Emmy and Edward R. Murrow Awards. The team's 'Inspecting the Inspectors' investigation looked into the missteps by city inspectors before the 2019 deadly collapse of the Hard Rock Hotel. The reports exposed that three city inspectors signed off on building inspections, while GPS coordinates on their city vehicles show they were never at the site on the dates in question.
