"Trust Us" Said The Politicians

The Assemblyman Steven Brooks case is getting even more absurd.
From the Las Vegas Sun: Assembly Minority Leader Pat Hickey, R-Reno, called on Democratic leaders to provide more details on the evidence used to support the Select Committee's decision to recommend troubled Assemblyman Steven Brooks, D-North Las Vegas, be expelled from the Nevada Legislature before the Assembly takes a vote on the ouster.
"I am hoping we may have a more open process," Hickey said. "I would like to see the panel come before the entire body and report on our reasons for the recommendation and to take a series of questions from the body. This is such a historic vote, we need to do more to make it clear. We owe it to the whole body."
The independent counsel, Mark Ferrario, said he could not release the investigative report because it contained confidential information including medical records, police investigation details and statements from witnesses who had been promised confidentiality....
Democrats have delayed a floor vote until Wednesday evening at the earliest because caucus members wanted more details on the committee's reasoning.
Horne said he can't distribute the investigative reports because "they are confidential."
Democrats are expected to meet in a private caucus meeting to review additional information from the investigation. Horne said he is hopeful other lawmakers will trust the judgement of the committee members, who were specifically selected because of their reputation and relationships with Brooks.

So, we have to trust a bunch of politicians without any supporting documentation, and let them kick someone out the Nevada assembly.
And since I generally don't trust politicians, I don't trust them in the Brooks fiasco.
Open up the books and papers or let him serve.  Those are really the only two options.
