Cited to Support

May's allegation that District Attorney Ron Moore exercised authority over the disclosure, withholding, and redaction of information contained within the Blueline Systems audit of the Asheville Police Department evidence room. The affidavit is cited to document Moore's sworn statements regarding the handling of audit materials and his position that portions of the audit should not be publicly released while criminal investigations or prosecutions remained ongoing. May relies upon this affidavit to support his claim that access to audit findings was subject to prosecutorial control and that portions of the audit may have been withheld from public disclosure despite their potential relevance to criminal cases
