Boys Will Be Boys . . .

A little short on time this morning, so here's the short version of the mess that's been working its way through the system over on the east coast: State Attorney's 20-something daughter gets arrested and ends up in a restraint device at the local jail. Daddy/State Attorney commences an investigation of the jail and the Sheriff's office. Another local State Attorney convenes a grand jury to investigate the Daddy/State Attorney's investigation of the Sheriff. Grand jury returns no indictment. Daddy/State Attorney/Subject of the grand jury investigation moves to have portions of the presentment expunged or sealed under the provisions of Chapter 905, Fla. Stat. Local media oppose the motion, as do the prosecuting State Attorney and local Sheriffs from surrounding counties. Yikes.

The motion to expunge or seal portions of the presentment remains pending in Flagler County Circuit Court. Here's today's report from the Daytona Beach News-Journal, whose reporter consulted with your humble blogmeister for some insight into the confidentiality of grand jury presentments.
