A Louisiana reporter who was sued for filing a public records request has won what appears to be a total vindication.
Andrea Gallo, a reporter for The Advocate and The Times-Picayune of New Orleans, will received the documents she was seeking under the ruling by Judge Tim Kelley.

The records Gallo sought are related to a sexual harassment investigation of one of Landry’s top aides.
