Chief: Police and court 'will be vindicated' in Marion, Kansas raidprotects against most searches of journalists and newsrooms by law enforcement, requiring police usually to issue subpoenas."Legal experts contacted by the Record termed the raid unheard of in America and reminiscent of what occurs in totalitarian regimes and the Third World," the Record reported.
– that a source contacted the Record, and a member of the city council, with information that Newell"did not have a valid driver's license and had ignored what the source said were repeated violation of driving laws by Newell." After Newell made public comments at the city council meeting alleging the Record had illegally gotten and shared sensitive documents, the Record published a story Thursday detailing its actions and decrying Newell's accusations as false.
"Our first priority is to be able to publish next week," Meyer said in the story,"but we also want to make sure no other news organization is ever exposed to the Gestapo tactics we witnessed today. We will be seeking the maximum sanctions possible under the law."
