To Whom It May Concern:
Pursuant to the New York Freedom of Information Law, I hereby request the following records:
1.) Any and all police reports, complaints, and narratives regarding the arrest of Joseph J. Milosich on December 27, 1990.
According to the media: "An Erie County employee was charged with arson Thursday after more than 500 county employees and visitors had to be temporarily evacuated from the county Department of Social Services offices because of a fire. Joseph J. Milosich, 42, of the Town of Tonawanda was charged with second-degree arson. Sheriff's Department investigators said he was taken into custody in the Rath County Office Building and was taken to the Erie County Holding Center to await arraignment today. Investigators said the fire was set at 11:30 a.m. in the Social Services offices at 478 Main St. Damage was minor and there were no reports of injuries.
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.
Sincerely,
Joanne Riford
