The New Hampshire Supreme Court heard arguments Tuesday in a right-to-know case that could have major implications for police transparency in the state.
The case involves one specific public-records request — the ACLU of New Hampshire’s pursuit of materials about a state trooper, Haden Wilber, who was fired in 2021. But it poses a larger question: whether the public ever has a right to view internal police personnel files that document misconduct.
It’s Sunshine Week, the annual initiative spearheaded by the News Leaders Association to educate the public on open government and the dangers of excessive secrecy. Gilles Bissonnette from the American Civil Liberties Union of New Hampshire, Right-to-Know New Hampshire’s Carla Gericke, and Concord Monitor reporter Cassidy Jensen discuss New Hampshire’s Right-to-Know Law, how it’s applied, and how it can be improved with The State We’re In host Melanie Plenda.
