Court rules that records must be public

In Alaska, a judge has ruled that Crazy Joey Miller is required to release his personnel records to the voting public.
In an unusual weekend hearing, retired Superior Court Judge Winston Burbank ruled that the public's right to know about candidates outweighed Miller's right to privacy.

"I hold that although Mr. Miller has a legitimate expectation of privacy in those documents, Mr. Miller's right to privacy is indeed outweighed by the public's significant interest in the background of a public figure who is running for the U.S. Senate," the judge said. He noted that U.S. senator is among the highest elected offices in the nation.
Crazy Joey is currently deciding whether or not to send his private security force to arrest the judge.
