Judge says sexual assault records against David Williams should be public

Posted: Updated:

LOUISVILLE, KY. (WDRB) -- A judge says sexual assault records against Republican gubernatorial nominee David Williams should be made public, despite the efforts to keep them sealed.

Williams was the woman's attorney in a criminal case when the allegations surfaced in 2002.  He denies the claims, and the attorney general's office found no grounds for a criminal investigation.

Williams and the woman sued to block the release of the documents, claiming invasion of privacy, but a judge ruled against them, saying most of the court records should be released.
