Dear Ms. DePalma:

Thank you for these documents, which were not, in fact, passed along by Media Relations.

Could you clarify whether I can expect any further documents? As you will see from my original request, I addressed my inquiry to Boston Police Department generally, and not only to the Hackney Department. Additionally, I would expect that in the five years since 2007 there might additional documents (including email and other correspondence) from Hackney itself.

Thank you for your assistance with this matter.

Best regards,
Shawn Musgrave
