Star Tribune sues to unseal U.S. Rep. Keith Ellison's divorce records
Star Tribune ^ | 09-25-2018 | Jessie Van Berkel

The Star Tribune has joined a legal effort to unseal the divorce records of U.S. Rep. Keith Ellison, the Democratic candidate for attorney general. Ellison and his ex-wife, Kim Ellison, divorced in 2012. The related records have been sealed, so the public cannot access the information. The Star Tribune’s motion to intervene and unseal the records follows a similar action by Alpha News, a right-leaning online news and opinion site. The efforts follow allegations by Ellison’s ex-girlfriend, Karen Monahan, that Ellison domestically abused her in 2016. He has denied the allegation repeatedly, and Monahan has continued to press her case in frequent tweets about Keith Ellison.

Unsealing divorce records in the same tactic the media used against Jack Ryan in 2004.

But didn’t Obama do the same to unseal his opponent’s, and it worked? The court granted it.

Nice precedent you set there, IWon.

Somebody is treating the Dems that way the Dems treat others......IT’S ABOUT TIME! (This is how Obama initially won his Senate seat in Illinois. Jack Ryan was ahead in the polls and the Dems got a ‘friendy’ judge to unseal his divorce records. His (ex)wife had accused him of wanting her to go to a sex club with him.....and the rest is history)

What is the point of going through sealing records if they can be unsealed....

Release ALL of the names of those in Congress who had sex complaints covered up with a $17,000,000 taxpayer funded slush fund. And do it before the SC vote...

I think you are going to have bi-partisan opposition to that. Finally, something the can all agree on.

Tribune should check with Zer0.

He’s got a proven track record in that department.

Just what I was thinking.
