[edit] Westerly declines to release investigation records

"Westerly town officials have rejected a newspaper’s request for records related to an internal police investigation of a detective who recently resigned.

The Sun newspaper of Westerly sought all records, reports and statements made during the Westerly Police Department’s investigation of Detective Darren Fiore.

But town solicitor Steven Hartford denied a request, saying the records were not covered by the state’s Access to Public Records Act."
