It’s been a dizzying week in the public records case before Davidson County Chancellor I’Ashea Myles.

For more than a year now, Myles has been considering whether the public records law requires the Nashville Police Department to release files from its investigation into the Covenant School shooting. Six people were killed in the shooting, including three children.

Now, however, as everyone has been awaiting a long-overdue ruling, the chancellor has turned her attention to a leak of police records to a local conservative news website, The Tennessee Star.  She is clearly hot about it.

On Monday, she ordered Tennessee Star Editor Michael Patrick Leahy, the editor and owner of Star News Digital Media, one of the four plaintiffs in the case, to appear personally in court on June 17 and show in a “show cause hearing” why his “publication” of articles based on leaked documents “does not” subject him to contempt proceedings and sanctions.
