Special prosecutor in Marion raid: More details will surface, no other charges without new evidence
TOPEKA — One of the special prosecutors tasked with reviewing the actions of law enforcement officers who raided the Marion County Record says more details will become public as criminal and civil cases proceed.But for now, Riley County Attorney Barry Wilkerson would prefer to let the report that he and Sedgwick County District Attorney Marc Bennett released earlier this month speak for itself.Their report cleared former Marion Police Chief Gideon Cody and other officers of criminal wrongdoing in planning or carrying out the raid, even though the officers had imagined a nonexistent crime, and ignored state and federal laws and constitutional protections.
