To Whom It May Concern:

Pursuant to the Virginia Freedom of Information Act, I hereby request the following records:

I am requesting the disciplinary record for Allen Wayne buzzard as well as all footage from inside of the police department and communication from Buzzards phone As it relates to the arrest of Tracey Taylor oh 1/20/2022. I also request the body Camerq footage for Mathew Thompson for this same date. Please include the footage for 15 minutes prior to arrival at Traceys
Home ir possible and communication in regards to warrant request from Roanoke city
I also am requesting all footage related to Tracey Taylor while she was
bvpd on 12/112021, 12/12/2021 and 11/27/2021 including all Footage inside of the pd and body camera.
For insurance purposes I also like all police reports for the last 14 months made for Tracey Taylor or her home address 1643 walnut ave

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 5 business days, as the statute requires.

This request is filed by Tom Nash, a citizen of Virginia, in coordination with Tracey Taylor.

Good morning Dawn,
I will provide additional information so it will hopefully reduce time spent on the request and reduce the inflated cost od the information whixh I have to admit is discouraging especially after other foia requests with the same amount of time/effort spent on them at little or no cost to me the requester.
I do not necessitate need officer Thompson’s body camera footage and officer buzzard I need his from 3:15pm to 6:30-7pm ish Communication from his from can be from 12:30pm til 3:30 pm and 4pm-7pmish. I’m looking for communication specifically about me. The video inside of the pd is from 4pm until approx 7pm. On The 11/27 video at the pd I believe you can find after 4:15 and until 7pm ish. The inside the pd video for 12/1 is from 8:30 pm until 11:30ish and is interaction with officer hill. This video takes place in magistrates office inside of bvpd..
The police reports are for claims to my insurance based on theft. I have been trying to get some of them for over a year and some of the officers have advised to me foia the reports. Do victims typically pay for these when they have a theft from their home or an assault?
Lastly I ask that you waive any associated fees and deposit requests. As a tax paying citizen of Buena Vista I feel I also hope this quote is not retaliatory action towards me for seeking needed information but Hopefully this will reduce the deposit amount based on previous requests provided by your office being significantly lover and secondly based on other extensions of local law enforcement providing foia information at no cost to me. Hopefully, the timeFrames provided above will significantly reduce research time and thus the deposit you quoted, I am requesting that you waive or significantly reduce the quoted deposit as I know the city isn’t trying to discourage my request or prevent me from filing insurance claims for the items stolen from my property.This significant increase could be perceived as retaliation and meant to discourage my requests which I am hoping is not the case and thereforeI again request that you reconsider and revise the quoted amount or preferably wave all associated fees.
Thanks
Tracey
