what the cops are claiming is that they should only have to provide the information if it relates to an ongoing trial.

well, is this not a trial? i may need to get a judge to rule on it. i think i can win that debate.

they're also arguing that they would require a court order, and that's fine if they want to go down that path.

again: i'm not doing the slightest bit of research into this, for obvious reasons, and we'll take it to court if we must.

the liberals are supposed to do better than this
