[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The newspaper had received a tip about the restaurant owner having a DUI, which would put the existing liquor license at risk.

The newspaper didn't run the story, because they thought they were being set up to run a false story.

Police version- we thought the newspaper was guilty of identity theft and hacking.

Newspaper version- the police were either upset after we didn't fall for their fake sting, or they wanted to see who leaked us this story, which would have involved a law enforcement officer abusing access to databases.[/quote]

Sounds like the woman's ex leaked the document, which may have been part of her divorce proceedings.

But what preceded the event is so weird.  The woman, a restaurant owner, hosted a meet-and-greet for a US congressman. She asked the police chief to kick out a reporter and the editor from the paper.  They did write about that incident. But they did not write about the DUI.

And then it turns out that they were investigating the police chief's termination from KCPD for sexual misconduct. Another story they investigated but did not report, because according to the editor they had not established enough evidence to print.

Following this, somebody apparently FB messaged them this document about the DUI. If it's the ex, undoubtedly some sort of revenge.  [/quote]
But if it’s not the ex, it’s someone who wanted the rule of law.

But we still have a judge who signed off on an un-American warrant. [/quote]
