Couple of stories that tie into yesterday's post about the state's public information laws.
Here's a link to a story in The Sun today by Peter Hermann that explains how the public is ultimately hurt when law enforcement officials start withholding more and more information about crimes.
And another written by me for the Towson Times about charges for police reports in Baltimore County and some other jurisdictions. Most alarming is the policy of some departments to require people to explain why they want a public document. And a related post on the society's Freedom of Information Committee blog.
