 Pinal County judge dismissed a lawsuit against New Times, which had been filed over stories on this blog about a member of Pinal County Sheriff Paul Babeu’s command staff apparently trying to scrub an arrest record from a DPS database.

PCSO Lieutenant Blake King filed the lawsuit, alleging New Times writer Monica Alonzo was libelous in her reporting of the arrest of Ronald Keys at a spot dubbed “Camp Titties and Beer” inside the Country Thunder musical festival in 2011. Judge Bradley Soos did not agree with King’s allegations, and granted a motion to dismiss the case.
