[QUOTE="MadDogs, post: 2748859, member: 11175"] Again, it goes back to LEOs knowing "when" to suit up. Do you suit up early in case there is trouble or do you put on your riot gear later and risk that some of your people get hurt because they were not prepared? Is it that they have advanced protective riot gear or when they use it is the issue? As to a LEO requesting information in protective gear, possibly dressed for the subsequent man hunt and not to question a news room? To the “legalities”, given it was information that could have been obtained by any public source, they can ask a news agency nicely and rely on the news agency to show their civic duty to help catch someone who would kill a police officer. Or given the SCOTUS ruling last year, they could come back with a warrant and show the news agency that they were abject dicks for not providing that information and that they have no understanding of the law they were trying to hide behind to protect a cop killer.
