Description
In Newman v. King County, 133 Wn.2d 565, 947 P.2d 712 (1997), we held the "investigative records" exception to the public disclosure act categorically exempted from disclosure all police investigative records in an unsolved, "open" investigation. The question in the present appeal is whether the same categorical exemption we adopted in Newman applies in a case where the suspect has been arrested and the case referred to the prosecutor for a charging decision. Interpreting Newman, the Court of Appeals held all records in a police investigative file are categorically exempt from disclosure pending completion of enforcement proceedings. The Court of Appeals also held a requested booking photograph was separately protected from disclosure under RCW 70.48.100(2), the City and County Jails Act. We reverse in part and affirm in part.
