I blogged last month about how the Star Tribune had waited seven months for the city of Minneapolis to hand over records of an internal investigation into a public official. The documents finally arrived last week, and staff writer Eric Roper had a story about it in Sunday’s paper. He also offered readers the entire investigative file, so you can piece together your own story, in between eight months’ worth of redactions.
