"For decades, communities in Kansas City, Kansas — particularly minority and immigrant communities — have been subjected to an alarming pattern of abuse and other serious misconduct by the KCKPD," according to the suit, which was first obtained by NBC News. The complaint against the Kansas City Police Department and the Unified Government of Wyandotte County/Kansas City, Kansas, alleges they have "stonewalled" the plaintiffs for almost a year. Kansas City police and the Unified Government of Wyandotte County/Kansas City, Kansas, didn't immediately respond to a request for comment about the lawsuit. The state's public records law does maintain that certain documents are exempt from public review, including personnel information of public employees and criminal investigation records. Meanwhile, attention on Kansas City, Kansas, police is expected to return next month, when Golubski's trial is scheduled to begin.
