Woodward Explains Grand Jury Remarks on Cedar Rapids Police
Woodward issued an explanation of remarks after a Cedar Rapids grand jury report that led to indictments related to the police department. He said investigations brought information to the public even without final indictments and urged Cedar Rapids voters to consider the issue when voting for city officials next fall. Safety Commissioner Steinbeck criticized the timing and political framing. Indictments previously named Steinbeck and five officers for perjury and obstruction of justice, with conspiracy charges later dismissed on a technicality. Woodward stressed that truth must come through the courts and that no open court resolution exists yet.
