Justice Department pushes to keep Ilhan Omar search warrant under seal for now
Federal prosecutors asked a judge Tuesday to reject a request from more than a dozen news organizations to immediately unseal the search warrant for Rep. Ilhan Omar’s (D-Minn.) Washington, D.C., home, saying it could jeopardize the ongoing criminal investigation.
What the coverage shows
Both outlets focus on the Justice Department’s decision to keep the warrant sealed and on the request from more than a dozen news organizations to unseal related documents. The Hill is the only one to mention prosecutors saying disclosure could jeopardize an ongoing criminal investigation. The New York Times instead emphasizes that the warrant was executed at Omar’s home this month.
