It linked to a web site action alert detailing breaking news about the event, etc. Hand in hand with the Anonymous work it is probably the only reason this story has any "legs".

Anyways, that's where I read many of these details. They were called "localleaks" or something like that. Did a search; lots of articles that mention "local leaks" but the actual site seems to have shut down.

So it's "alleged". Just because I read it on the internet doesn't mean it's true...

Here's one news story that references "local-leaks"
