No charges in probe into leaked info to Thug Life website

Posted on September 4, 2017 by Dissent

AP reports from Charleston:

An investigation into a website that leaked the name of a juvenile charged in a killing along with other confidential police information has ended without any charges filed, according to the State Law Enforcement Division.

The probe into the Thug Life website that criticized criminals and prosecutors who the site thought were too weak on crime started after the site released the name of a 15-year-old suspect in a 2015 killing. State law bans authorities from releasing the names of juvenile suspects until they are charged as adults.

So is this an insider leak or not? We’ll have to wait for further internal investigations, I guess.
