Search Warrant Documents-KH/STL City Circuit Attorney's Office

To Whom It May Concern:

Pursuant to the Missouri Sunshine Law, I hereby request the following records:

All search warrants, applications for search warrants, affidavits for search warrants, authorizations for search warrants, denials/cancellations of search warrants, and search warrant returns and receipts documents pertaining to Kevin Hawkins between the date of January 1, 2018 to the date of processing this request. Please provide the following points of record for each:

• Full Name of requester
• Reason(s) for search warrant (typically either hand-written, or checkboxes)
• Badge ID (or similar) of requester
• Police District/Unit of requester
• Name of approving supervisor/commander
• Name of Judge
• Receiving/Issuing Court Jurisdiction
• Requested location of search warrant
• Location of search warrant execution
• Type of search warrant
• Statements used to justify search warrant
• Time and date when search warrant was submitted for approval
• Time and date when search warrant was authorized
• Time and date when search warrant was executed
• Whether an arrest occurred
• If arrest, arrest ID (i.e. some cities/states use, "Incident Report")
• Whether anything was found
• Whether anything was seized
• License plate of vehicle (if relevant)
• Legal code of violation
• Description of violation
• Date of violation
• Whether other local, state or federal law enforcement organization(s) involved (i.e. MSHP, FBI, DHS, NSA)
• Name(s) of other local, state or federal law enforcement organization(s) involved
• ID information (i.e. name of task force, agent id, etc.) of representatives associated with each local, state or federal law enforcement organization(s) involved
• Whether search warrant was cancelled

I request that in conducting searches for releasable records, that you please disclose records even if they are currently available publicly through your agency portal, other sources outside of your agency, such as the Missouri Accountability Portal or the Missouri Courts website.

As the records sought detail the operations and activities of our government, I also request that fees be waived as I believe this request is in the public’s interest. I am seeking the records to analyze, inform and freely release to members of the public as part of the public information service at MuckRock.com. The requested records are not for commercial use.

I am willing to pay all reasonable duplication expenses incurred in the processing this Sunshine Law request. However, as I am a member of the public and requesting documents specifically for the purpose of increasing the public’s knowledge of governmental functioning, I will administratively appeal any denial of my request for a fee waiver.

If fees cannot be waived, I would be grateful if you would inform me of the total charges in advance of fulfilling my request. I would prefer the request be filled electronically by e-mail or by CD-ROM in necessary.

Thank you in advance for your anticipated cooperation in this matter. I look forward to receiving your response to this request within 3 business days, as the statute requires.

Sincerely,

Kevin Hawkins
