GOODLAND LOCATION ONLY • OPEN DAILY 6 A.M. TO 11 P.M. star-news 4 The Goodland Star-News / Tuesday, February 25, 2014 opinion from our viewpoint... Let the Sunshine in “Sunshine is the strongest antiseptic … its rays may penetrate areas previously closed,” wrote the late Robert H. Miller, a former chief justice of the Kansas Supreme Court, as he explained in a case why government records must be open under penalty of law. His sage admonition of 30 years ago remains true today. We need only look to current events in North Korea, for example, where a tourist can easily find him or herself whisked away by state police and accused of any manner of offense, including crimes subject to the death penalty, with the only explanation given that the defendant is a spy. No supporting information. Noth- ing. Only the threat of execution unless the defendant’s family or country may pony up what in effect is little more than ransom. We Americans scratch our head and ask how this can be. We need look no further than Eastern and Central Europe for like examples of secret proceedings that were routine in the former Soviet Bloc countries. I know firsthand of what I speak, for I have now made presentations at 17 once-opaque international courts, where cases were secret with no public access by anyone, where harsh prison sentences or even death penalties were meted out without regard to fairness or transparency in the proceedings. In those places, jack-booted officers stormed homes in the night, arresting whom they would with no showing of probable cause. Today, the U.S. State Department and several national legal organizations are helping the “new” judges in many of those republics make their systems honest and transparent – just as every state and federal court in our country is – except those in Kansas. Most are unaware, but under Kansas law, all information con- tained in affidavits setting forth probable cause to issue criminal complaints or search warrants is sealed. Just as in Third Reich Germany, someone interested in the truth behind the issuance of a criminal charge or search warrant in Kansas may not learn it from what should be an open court record, because years ago, without a public hearing, a bill was enacted closing these affidavits, or sworn statements. These are open to inspection in every other State budget a work in progress state and in the federal courts. The need to declare these documents open court records once I really appreciate those of you that con- ward chance to question any budget line items the and for all has been borne out time and time again during 15 years tacted me about my vote on the Religious universities work with.
