Here it is:
Judge’s order requiring information release in Geer case
Judge orders Fairfax County to disclose information in John Geer police shooting
Just three days after a hearing on the Geer family’s request for information in their civil suit against Fairfax Police Chief Edwin C. Roessler Jr., Judge Randy I. Bellows issued a 12-page ruling that threatens to end nearly 16 months of silence by Fairfax authorities concerning the death of John Geer. The judge did so, in large part, by noting that the case is now being handled by federal authorities, who did not object to any of the Geer family’s requests and who expressly stated publicly that they had not instructed Fairfax to refrain from disclosing information about the case. The judge’s order redacts the home addresses, phone numbers and identifying data of the law enforcement and civilian witnesses.

Mike Lieberman, lawyer for the Geer family, said he was “gratified that the judge has finally ended the family’s long nightmare of not knowing what happened to their son.”
