Renegade Press Public Records Fund
Donation protected
No other time in history has been as conducive to independent journalism as 2014, and the future holds unlimited potential for what passionate individuals can accomplish with the help of the Internet community.
Unfortunately, many projects struggle to fund this enterprise so vital to a free and informed society. To that end, Renegade Press is establishing this Public Records Fund to cover the costs of obtaining documents in the public interest.
Money donated to the fund will be used SOLELY for the purposes of making these records public, including postage. Records will be posted to the Renegade Press website alongside receipts so that anyone with an Internet connection can hold the fund's executor accountable.
Pending public records requests include:
-Court documents in the case against a Kentucky correctional officer who received no jail time after confessing to 25 counts of sexually assaulting inmates.
-Administrative records relating to sexual assaults at an Ohio juvenile correctional facility, where 30 percent of inmates reported being sexually assaulted.
-Have suggestions? Email [email redacted].
