"Reporter Files Federal Lawsuit Over Controversial Marion County Police Raid"

A reporter at the Marion County Record has filed a federal lawsuit alleging her constitutional rights were violated during a controversial raid last August, seeking damages of $950,000 and attorney’s fees. The raid, which drew widespread criticism, led to the reporter suffering seizures and has been linked to extreme depression and anxiety. The police chief who ordered the raid has since resigned, and another reporter had previously filed a federal lawsuit against him, accusing him of violating her constitutional rights.
