“The Department of Justice is withholding documents about the Imran Awan cybersecurity scandal by saying there is an ongoing, secret case related to matter, according to court papers.”
The FOIA is intended to stop the government from hiding inconvenient secrets from the public. “Sealed court records” is an attempt to evade the law. Either the DoJ unseals and delivers or somebody needs to sit in jail.
I agree. There is a small wish telling me that the “secret case” is related to Durham’s investigation... but I admit that’s a stretch. The article seems to say the seal is related to the wife’s plea agreement.
