The KSHB 41 I-Team obtained three affidavits in relation to the raids on Marion County Record, the newspaper owner’s home and the city vice mayor’s home.

Small town pissing contest becomes nationwide concern because once again police show everyone that they believe they are the law. The irony in this is the paper never even had to publish the story to get it out. The cops did that with their actions.
It’s really amazing. Literally everyone in the US would have continued to not know or care about these people until this blew up - and it’s all their own doing! It’s like the Streisand Effect, but without the subjects already being in any way already known or noteworthy.
