We have to believe their evaluation no matter what, they're only releasing what they decide to release and can redact along the way.

Only certain redactions are allowed under this law, so it’s not so cut and dry. There is an enforcement mechanism, tbd if it actually gets used.
The public in this case is effectively a defense attorney waiting for discovery - we only get what the other side determined to be worth providing and catching them breaking the law is extremely difficult.
Very true - the one caveat being that certain people know of the existence of things that should be published - lots of way to trip yourself up and get caught if you’re trying to conceal things or otherwise improperly redact information.
The law specifies which redactions are legal. The enforcement mechanism, IIRC, comes through obstruction.
I certainly don't believe their evaluation.
