Newsman Asks For Decision On Photographer Innocence
West Columbia magistrate promised a ruling on Tuesday whether Ed Tilley a press photographer for The State and The Columbia Record should be found innocent after a mistrial. Tilley was arrested June 7 on I-26 while taking pictures of a three car wreck. Officers testified he blocked traffic and ignored orders to stop. Tilley claimed no obstruction and tried to show his press card. The magistrate initially barred publishing testimony but later lifted the ban at the request of prosecutors and defense counsel.
