Judge David Hall of Forsyth Superior Court made the decision after he presided over a virtual hearing.
Neville died in December 2019 after having a medical emergency at the Forsyth County Jail. Five former detention officers and a nurse have been charged with involuntary manslaughter in his death.
It was the third such hearing connected to records, including a 723-page report from the State Bureau of Investigation, that the N.C. Department of Health and Human Services had planned to release to The (Raleigh) News & Observer, following a public-records request.
An attorney for DHHS notified Assistant District Attorney Elisabeth Dresel on Jan. 28 about the agencyâs intention to release the records. The next day, Dresel filed an objection and Hall temporarily sealed the records. Attorneys for a media coalition that includes the Winston-Salem Journal and the N&O were not notified that the records were going to be released or that prosecutors had filed an objection.
