I wanted to follow up on the following Freedom of Information request, copied below, and originally submitted on June 18, 2014. Please let me know when I can expect to receive a response, or if further clarification is needed.

Thank you for your help.

Mr. Trotter,

Hi Mr. Stefanski,

Thank you for your message.

Yes, I am looking for information on the recent incident involving a television personality at the same shopping center.

Please let me know if you need any other information.

Thank you,
J.K. Trotter

Hi Lt. Stefanski,

Thank you for the copy of the records. I do have one question though:

If I understand page 2 of the OPRA response correctly, Michael Sorrentino is being charged with domestic violence? (“Domestic violence records will not be released.”)

Thank you.

J.K. Trotter

Thanks very much for the clarification.
