U.S. District Judge Richard Matsch on Monday agreed to release some documents in a long-sealed case involving the Rocky Flats grand jury, but it was a hollow victory for jurors. Matsch ruled that court filings, memos and other ancillary information be released. But he kept a lid on the testimony of jurors who think the Justice Department undermined their 2 1/2-year criminal investigation and instead cut a deal for an $18.5 million fine against Rockwell International, the operator of the former nuclear weapons plant in Jefferson County.
