From: Josiah Munoz

To Whom It May Concern:

Pursuant to the Wisconsin Open Records Act, I hereby request the following records:

911 call audio for the following incidents:

[Incident 1]
Date: July 25, 2022
Address: 2611 N OAKLAND AV,MKE
Time: 1:02AM
Call ID: 222060085
More Info: https://mke-police.herokuapp.com/call/222060085

[Incident 2]
Date: August 11, 2022
Address: 2611 N OAKLAND AV,MKE
Time: 9:34PM
Call ID: 222231748
More Info: https://mke-police.herokuapp.com/call/222231748

Note to the detective: We understand that there is an active investigation into these incidents, and that it is of utmost importance not to release any information to the public that could jeopardize this investigation. The victim in this case, Patrick Tomlinson, is a public figure and there is immense public interest in finding the identity of the person who made these false police reports. Releasing the 911 audio is not likely to compromise any police procedures or discourage any witnesses from coming forward. On the contrary, with hundreds of eyes on the case, the audio will be dissected and compared with other similar swatting incidents committed against other people in other jurisdictions.

If it is necessary that the records be mailed, they can be mailed to the following address:
6001 W Parmer Ln
Ste 370 PMB 6477
Austin, TX 78727

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 10 business days.

Sincerely,

Daniel Kurlan

From: Milwaukee Police Department
