The source who provided the information could wind up in jail. If the printed the articles, they might be "heroic" at somebody else's expense. The PD needs to find a way to print the article without using the confidential information (i.e., find another source).
Of course, now that they've admitted that the essentially received "stolen property," their source could be in trouble anyway. Makes me wonder why they leaked the information in the first place -- maybe to get their source to come clean on his own? Who knows.
