Kudos to the newspapers in York, the York Daily Record and York Sunday News, for informing their readers with the full disclosure transparency under the Pennsylvania Right To Know Law. They publish, in print and on their Website, open source documents.

Here, for example, is the posting from Tuesday, March 8:

“The York County Prison makes its inmate roster available online weekdays. The prison is an adult local detention facility that houses inmates that are awaiting trial or serving sentences of up to five years. Following are links to the inmate rosters.

“To view some of those listed on the York County Sheriff’s Department’s Most Wanted list, go here.

“For full crime coverage, go here.”

We applaud these transparency declarations by these newspapers and these government agencies.
