Q: Why did police not release the video?
A: The assistant city attorney said the current Open Records Act only allows inspection of law enforcement records. He said a change in the law Nov. 1 will permit copying. The media disagreed with his position and sought the immediate release of the video. The attorney did not budge.
Q: So, how can the public see the video?
A: Make a request under the Open Records Act. Or, wait until Nov. 1 when news organizations get their copies and show it.
