Open Records Ruling Says KSP Violated Law Over Bodycam Video
Kentucky State Police violated the Open Records Act by denying Kathy Harris access to bodycam video from the Russellville drive-thru shooting death of her son Joseph Harris. Assistant Attorney General Michelle Harrison rejected the trauma argument, noting Harris waived privacy interests and that the other victims were not shown. The opinion bindingly addresses this case but leaves room for appeal and does not establish a general rule.
