Investigation into Leak of Nashville Shooter's Manifesto Ends with No Clear Answers

The investigation into the leak of pages from the Nashville mass shooter's manifesto has ended inconclusively, with police unable to determine who was responsible. Two officers who discovered the manifesto took pictures of it, but investigators were unable to identify the individual who leaked portions of it to conservative entertainer Steven Crowder. Seven officers were transferred to administrative positions following the leak, but all have since returned to their regular positions. Lawsuits have been filed to both release and block the manifesto, with an appeals court expected to rule on the matter.

The decision has been reflected in the network's coverage, with mentions of Hale's gender identity stopping. CBS News insiders have criticised the move, with one saying it was "withholding information" and "not journalism".
