The Marion County Record now has all of the devices police seized in a raid. Local newspapers report that the judge who signed the search warrant had two drunken driving arrests within a year.
A stack of the latest edition of the weekly Marion County Record sits in the back of the newspaper's building in Marion, Kansas, on Wednesday. The newspaper's front page was dedicated to two stories about a raid by local police on its offices and the publisher's home on Aug. 11.
In another development, news emerged that Magistrate Judge Laura Viar, who signed the search warrant allowing police to seize the equipment, was arrested at least twice for driving under the influence. Those 2012 arrests came months apart in two counties — and it's not clear how much information was shared between officials at the time,drew national and international headlines because it seemed to run counter to long-established press freedoms and guarantees.
Days later, Newell publicly accused the Record of feeding the information to a councilwoman, Ruth Herbel. The paper says the same source who made the initial allegation also sent the information to Herbel.
