Well will you fancy that!!!!
MARION, Kansas (AP) — The prosecutor in Marion County, Kansas, said Wednesday that police should return all seized material to a weekly newspaper that was raided by officers in a case that has drawn
national scrutiny of press freedom.
Marion County Attorney Joel Ensey said his review of police seizures from the Marion County Record found “insufficient evidence exists to establish a legally sufficient nexus between this alleged crime and the places searched and the items seized.”
“As a result, I have submitted a proposed order asking the court to release the evidence seized. I have asked local law enforcement to return the material seized to the owners of the property,” Ensey said in a news release.
A Kansas prosecutor says a police raid on a small weekly newspaper wasn’t supported by evidence. The newspaper's staff scrambled to print the new edition Wednesday without their cellphones and computers seized in the raid.
