WI Supreme Court Wants To Hush Up John Doe

In advance of the hearings, the Supreme Court are considering some unusual maneuvers:
In a highly unusual move, the state Supreme Court is considering holding all or part of its oral arguments in secret in a case focused on whether Gov. Scott Walker's campaign and conservative groups illegally worked together in recall elections.
In a five-page order issued late Wednesday, the court told attorneys involved in the case to file briefs next week spelling out whether they believe the public should be prohibited from attending all or part of the arguments on April 17 and 20. The court also wants the attorneys to weigh in on whether to allow live television coverage of the arguments, as has been happening for years for all of the high court's cases.
The court indicated it was considering recording the arguments that would be released later, after portions were excised from them.
The court is contemplating such unusual steps because the three cases it is considering are tied to an investigation that is supposed to be secret. The probe has been stalled for more than a year because the judge overseeing it determined the activities in question were not illegal.
The high court is considering a request by a special prosecutor to reinstate subpoenas that have been blocked and two challenges from those caught up in the probe asking to end the investigation for good.

Later this year, the Wisconsin Supreme Court will be hearing three cases regarding the John Doe investigation into the illegal collaboration between Scott Walker, his campaign and dark money special interest groups, like the Wisconsin Club for Growth.
