ACLU Blasts Orange County DA Office For Refusing To Release Public Records In Informant Scandal

LOS ANGELES -- The ACLU of Southern California is demanding that the Orange County District Attorney's Office turn over public records related to a jailhouse informant scandal, or the organization intends to take them to court, according to an ACLU letter sent Thursday to the OCDA's office.

A set of letters provided to The Huffington Post, the most recent from Thursday, reveals that the civil liberties organization is "deeply" troubled by the lack of accountability and transparency from the beleaguered OCDA office.
