To Whom It May Concern:

Pursuant to the Texas Public Information Act, I hereby request the following records:

1. the total number of use of force incidents, separated by type of force and year used from 2016-2020 (for example, information that specifies the number of taser incidents in 2020, baton incidents in 2020, etc.). Please include as part of this a breakdown of how many use of force incidents in each year were related to law enforcement operations and how many were related to correctional/custodial operations.

2. the total number of civilian complaints alleging any form of law enforcement misconduct that were reported and the total number sustained from 2016-2020, separated by year.

3. the total number of civilian complaints alleging law enforcement use of excessive force that were reported and the total number sustained from 2016-2020, separated by year.

4. the total number of civilian complaints alleging biased policing or racial profiling that were reported and the total number sustained from 2016-2020, separated by year.

5. the total number of civilian complaints alleging criminal conduct that were reported and the total number sustained from 2016-2020, separated by year.

6. the total number of officer involved shootings from 2016-2020, both fatal and non-fatal, separated by year.

The requested documents will be made available to the general public, and this request is not being made for commercial purposes.

In the event that there are fees, I would be grateful if you would inform me of the total charges in advance of fulfilling my request. I would prefer the request filled electronically, by e-mail attachment if available or CD-ROM if not.

Thank you in advance for your anticipated cooperation in this matter. I look forward to receiving your response to this request within 10 business days, as the statute requires.

Sincerely,

My apologies for the typo... September 21, 2022

From: Brazoria County Sheriff's Office

Sorry for the confusion, We have realized you have 2 different request for the same type of information with different time frames. The first request you should have already received responsive documents on. The second is still pending.

Thank you for the reminder of your original request sent on September 30, 2022. Our office exercises due diligence in responding to requests as promptly as possible; however, due to the high volume of requests received daily, the turnaround time is generally 10 business days, holidays excluded. There are occasions when that time frame may be exceeded and should that happen the requester will be notified.

Thank you for your understanding and patience.
Thanks,
