How the government's punishing of the exposure of official wrongdoing can linger for years

Three adults were killed early Monday at an in-home day care in a suburb northwest of Minneapolis, and a nearby college was locked down as police searched for a suspect who fled on a bicycle.
Hakeem Hughes, an 18-year-old student who lives close to the day care, said that he heard screaming from the direction of the house about 6:30 a.m. but that he didn't pay much attention because children often played outside the home.
"I'm just shocked about it," Mr. Hughes said. "They are good people. They are innocent people."
