Second SF judge had evidence videographer who was raided was journalist
The warrant’s affidavit reveals that San Francisco Superior Court Judge Gail Dekreon gave police the green light to storm into Bryan Carmody’s home on May 10, even though California’s shield law protects journalists from being forced to reveal sources. Dekreon is now the second judge who had information identifying Carmody as a journalist and still authorized police to search him in their investigation into a leaked report on the death of Public Defender Jeff Adachi, according to court records.
