Gov. Dannel P. Malloy called Thursday for the Chief State’s Attorney’s Office to release additional information regarding the ongoing Newtown shooting investigation following an outcry from lawmakers over details leaked by the State Police, CT News Junkie reported Thursday (March 21).
Malloy’s request to prosecutors comes amid criticisms from House Minority Leader Lawrence Cafero, who called the information State Police Colonel Danny Stebbins shared with other law enforcement officers at a conference in New Orleans a “slap in the face” to the families of the Newtown victims.
Malloy said he was also “disappointed and angered” to learn the information had been released and published in a newspaper. He said he expected a report from prosecutors by March 29.
