NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — Nashville Police say they have “exhausted all available investigative avenues” in the hunt for the person who leaked pages from a school shooter’s journals to a conservative commentator. The department sent an email on Friday announcing the findings. It says investigators determined two detectives took photos of the journal after it was found in the shooter’s car. One former police detective who had images from the journal declined interview requests. Police say they can’t “compel statements or cooperation from former employees.” The writings are the subject of an ongoing legal battle over whether they should be released as public records.
