A search warrant was issued Thursday in the investigation of the death of Prince, TheWrap has learned.
Minnesota’s Carver County Police Department issued the warrant, but the contents of the search warrant have been sealed.
This is because “premature disclosure of the details provided in the search warrant and its accompanying documents may compromise this law enforcement investigation by causing the search or related searches to be unsuccessful,” according to the county attorney’s office’s motion to seal the warrant.
The motion also mentioned “continued intense media scrutiny” as a reason for sealing the document and subsequent results.
The investigation into Prince’s death is reportedly focusing on the role that drugs may have played in both his death and his medical emergency the week before in Moline, Illinois.
