Law enforcement claims it’s illegal for two journalists to possess documents voluntarily handed to them in response to a public records request.

ISTOCK PHOTO--Police Belt By Deanna Paul Deanna Paul Reporter covering national and breaking news Email Bio Follow March 2 at 7:00 AM Two California journalists requested and were given data on police officers’ arrests and convictions over the past 10 years. What they found was surprising: domestic abuse, child molestation — even murder. They were given these documents through a public records request, something journalists exercise frequently.

On Jan. 8, both men received two files containing a spreadsheet with 12,000 names. It included officers and applicants convicted of a crime, but as Lewis said, it also"included current and former peace officers and applicants, and individuals who applied and went through part of the process and then got rejected.”

“I respect the importance of a free press and the need to have transparency and the need to give the American public the right to know,” Becerra said, calling the commission’s Jan. 8 action a “mistake.” “If innocent people get caught up in this, that’s not right.”

CalypsoBeach We do not need criminal cops who hurt people. They hurt people, they sue, and the public picks up the bill. No more. First - hire better cops. Second release their records. Third fire the cops who lie and hurt people.BetterCops

California’s new ‘sanctuary’ battle could be keeping immigrant data away from ICENew legislation would prohibit cities and counties across California from entering into new contracts with any company that sells, mines or analyzes personal information for ICE or Customs and Border Protection. Not long ago, people scoffed at conservatives & libertarians who warned about the inherent authoritarianism that goes along with collectivist philosophy. Progressives have now taken off the masks. They are jackbooted dictators who only seek power for themselves. 👏🏼👏🏼 you bunch of Mussolini's are gonna be Sorry !
