Spencer Custodio serves as Voice of OC’s civic editor. Like the other reporters, Custodio began as an intern – one of the news organization’s first in 2010.
Custodio was the lead writer during the newsroom’s award winning COVID coverage, which earned a prestigious General Excellence award from the California News Publishers Association in 2022.
He works with reporters in the field on daily civic coverage across Orange County cities and the county government and took over the role just after the death of the newsroom’s legendary Civic Editor, Tracy Wood, in 2020.
After initially covering Fullerton and Irvine as a reporter with Voice of OC, Custodio began focusing on Anaheim City Hall in late 2018. In award-winning coverage throughout the following year, he detailed the shadowy Angel Stadium land sale proposal – a sale that was ultimately canned after it got caught up in a federal corruption probe.
As Civic Editor, he has overseen the ensuing Anaheim corruption scandal coverage that followed former Anaheim Mayor Harry Sidhu’s resignation and guilty plea to federal corruption charges.
