To Whom It May Concern:

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

On April 25, 2018 the Office of Director at the Illinois State Police received a MOU between ICE Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) and the Illinois State Police. Specifically the MOU assigned District 15 Erin Anderson #5846 to be temporary assigned or task forced to HSI as a TFO (Task Force Officer).

Therefore, I request the following records between April 1, 2018 to the November 1, 2018.

- All emails between Trooper Anderson and HSI (ICE).
- All memos, faxes, and other communication between Trooper Anderson and HSI (ICE).
- Communication between Trooper Anderson and other police agencies assigned to the same taskforce.

Please do not hesitate to contact me with any questions about the scope of this request. My number is (202) 332-6736.

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,

Freddy Martinez

The Illinois State Police acknowledges receipt of your FOIA request. (See attached request). A response to your request is due November 12, 2019. However, additional time is needed to respond to your request. In accordance with Section 3(e) of the Freedom of Information Act (5 ILCS 140/3 (e)), the response due date is being unilaterally extended to November 19, 2019. The basis for this extension is as follows:

_____ The requested records are stored in whole or in part at another location.

_____ The request requires the collection of a substantial number of records.

_____ The request is stated in categorical terms which requires an extensive search for the records requested.

__X __ The requested records have not yet been located and additional time is needed to complete the search.

__X__ The requested records require examination and evaluation to determine if the documents are exempt from disclosure and/or must be redacted.

__X__ The requested records cannot be provided within the prescribed time frame without causing an undue burden or interfering with the operation of the Department.

_____ Consultation is needed with another public body in order to respond to the request.

Note - Extending the deadline to the above-referenced date does not necessarily mean a response and/or public records will be provided to you by that date. FOIA requests are reviewed in the order in which they are received. Your patience is appreciated
