North Carolina Senator Danny Britt abandons effort to exempt autopsy reports from public access in amended drug bill.

North Carolina State Senator Danny Britt has abandoned efforts to exempt autopsy reports from public access. Previously, his proposed amendments would have prevented public access to autopsy reports until a probe or prosecution was completed. The amended bill, which aims to increase punishments for distributing the drug xylazine, has cleared the Senate Judiciary Committee and requires further committee approval before progressing to the Senate floor.
