In an April 2012 investigative series, Branham-Bailey wrote about a corruption conspiracy involving Miami Beach code compliance officers and fire inspectors charged by Federal prosecutors for their alleged roles in the extortion of a South Beach nightclub. The scandal and its aftermath led to public protests that hastened the resignation in July of the city's manager, Jorge M. Gonzalez.
The Neil Rogers Show
In a January 2011 column eulogizing the late Miami radio personality Neil Rogers, Branham-Bailey revealed a long-time secret: he was the "Charlie B" that Rogers had frequently referred to on his daily radio talk show. From 2005 to 2009, Branham-Bailey, under the "Charlie B" sobriquet, supplied "The Neil Rogers Show" with many of the audience-interactive daily polls that Rogers used on his show's website:
:The polls didn’t merely serve as a barometer of the audience’s opinions. They also provoked discussion. One of mine was the genesis of an off-and-on debate between Neil, Jorge, and callers that lasted for the better part of a week, and beyond. Such was the power of the polls, to be provocative.
