To Whom It May Concern:
Pursuant to the Montana Freedom of Information Act, I hereby request the following records:
Data on all cases of deaths in custody involving an Alaska Native/American Indian woman or girl victim within your jurisdiction(s). For the purposes of this request, "Alaska Native/American Indian" is defined as any individual who was identified as a member of an Alaska Native or American Indian community or as having Alaska Native/American Indian heritage. "Woman or girl" includes all victims identified as females, as well as transgender women. We are requesting cases dating from 1900 to the present.
This request is for basic information on cases as classified above. Such information may include but is not limited to victim name, location and date of disappearance/death, age of victim, status of case (solved or unsolved).
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,
Annita Lucchesi

Ms. Lucchesi:
As Ms. Beck relayed to you, the Montana Department of Corrections statistic unit has been overwhelmed with deadlines for the Montana Legislation session, and continues to be. The statistics unit is continuing to put other data requests on hold at this time. As soon as they are able to address your request and determine ability to respond and cost of compiling information, you will be contacted.

Amy Barton

Ms. Lucchesi:
Your request was received by our IT department and the response to their ability to respond is that the Department of Corrections does not keep data on victims. They are able to generate information regarding offender deaths in custody if you are wanting that without the victim information.

Amy Barton
