BREAKING: In a victory for government transparency, a New Haven Superior Court judge has sided with us in our argument for the court to unseal the transcript of Hamden police employee Devin Eaton’s internal affairs interview about the night he shot Stephanie Washington.
We were in court this morning to argue for the public’s right to see the transcript. The court had previously sealed the transcript of Eaton’s interview. We took legal action & argued for the public’s right to access it. Today, the court ruled the transcript must be unsealed.

The Hamden police union has 10 days to decide whether to appeal the ruling. If they do not appeal, the earliest we could receive a copy of the transcript would be March 22. When and if we get that copy, we will immediately make it public on our website.

The government shouldn’t keep documents about police behavior secret. The public has a right to know what Eaton said about that night, when he was working as a Hamden police employee.
