Court upholds prison interview discretion in Kevorkian case
A state appeals court refused to order access for ABC News to interview Jack Kevorkian in prison, affirming corrections officials' discretion over inmate interviews. The ruling followed a lower court order and subsequent appellate reversal, while the network's request had sought nine hours access for Barbara Watters and ten others. The decision keeps inmate interview decisions in the hands of the Department of Corrections.
