By: The state Justice Department is still refusing to release any witness statements or reports generated by law enforcement agents investigating the mass murders at Crandon last October, and the subsequent search for the shooter.
The department's records custodian says in response to open records requests submitted by the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel that releasing the reports would interfere with the continuing investigation.
Forest County District Attorney Leon Stenz has said he's awaiting the state's full report on that investigation. And the Forest County Sheriff's Department has denied a request for the recordings of all calls made to the department over the weekend of the incident. The department has also denied requests for its policies regarding its Special Emergency Response Team and the allocation of AR-15 rifles.
The Journal Sentinel says it's also asked for materials from the Crandon Police Department. The newspaper says it's been told that reports and investigative materials related to the case were mailed last week, but the material hasn't yet arrived.
