According to a report from The Jerusalem Post, officers from CPD visited an "Anti-Defamation League National Counter-Terrorism Seminar" (hereby the ADL) in Israel in 2015.
"The ADL said this year’s participants include executives from US Immigration and Customs Enforcement, the US Marshals Service, the US Naval Criminal Investigative Service and the International Association of Chiefs of Police, and officers from the police departments of Chicago, Las Vegas, Austin, Seattle, Oakland and Miami-Dade."
Pursuant to the Illinois Freedom of Information Act (5 ILCS 140/1 to 11), I hereby request the following records:
- Any and all records about invoices and payments made to cover the cost of this trip
- Documents sufficient to show which officers received this training
- Documents sufficient to show how the trip was paid for
- Documents sufficient to show if officers have gone on similar trips in 2016 and 2017.
- Documents sufficient to show communications between CPD, ADL, and if available, the Mayor Office.
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. Please be aware that this request is being made by Lucy Parsons Labs, a non-profit in the state of IL

Greetings CPD,
I called about a month ago to check the status of this request and was told that I should expect records by the end of week while it underwent redactions. This request is now overdue by over four months. When does CPD intend to respond to this FOIA request as require by Illinois law?
Best,
Freddy Martinez
