Opinion: Tennessee should allow public review of redistricting maps before finalizing them


Deborah Fisher, executive director of the Tennessee Coalition for Open Government
The redrawing of congressional and state legislative districts every 10 years can make and break political careers, providing new opportunities for some and placing brick walls in front of others.
But beyond an individual politician’s future, the most significant impact of redistricting is the potential reshaping of political power in a state by packing or cracking districts for a particular advantage. We know this as “gerrymandering” and the ultimate goal of some politicians is to increase or decrease the number of Republicans or Democrats in Congress or statehouses.

Nashville police shooting: MNPD won't release full body camera footage


View Comments
The Metro Nashville Police Department released partial footage the day after the shooting but denied an open records request for the full footage from the scene, saying the investigation was still open.
In Tennessee, state law allows but does not require  law enforcement agencies to keep records confidential if they are related to an ongoing investigation.
Body camera footage from previous police shootings was released while investigations were still active. Footage from a March shootout that left a woman dead and an officer wounded was released within a week. Footage from a non-fatal police shooting of a woman threatening suicide and wielding a pick ax in March was also released within a week.  ....
