The Nevada Supreme Court has reversed and remanded a free speech case involving the state’s biggest newspaper, finding a lower court erred in a decision concerning photographs and video of law enforcement the paper published.
The high state court’s decision stemmed from a 2023 article in the Las Vegas Review-Journal about the Henderson Detention Center. The Nevada Association of Public Safety Officers argued that the story, titled “Henderson jailers get millions in overtime but still make critical mistakes,” violated a provision of the Peace Officer Bill of Rights.
