To Whom It May Concern:
Pursuant to the Washington Public Records Act, I hereby request the following records:
- all Information From Online Communities and Unclassified Sources (InFOCUS) notices/documents from May 25, 2020 to January 21st, 2021
Information From Online Communities and Unclassified Sources (InFOCUS) appears to be a notice distributed by the Washington State Fusion Center daily over email to law enforcement partners, as seen in a public records request from Seattle PD. Please know I am requesting the attachments to those emails (the InFOCUS PDFs themselves), not just the emails.
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,
Michael Quinn

Thank you for the documents. The zip file provided includes 116 PDFs when there were 241 days/163 business days in between May 25th, 2020 and January 21st, 2021. Given inFOCUS is a daily newsletter, are the missing documents being withheld or does WSFC claim to not have copies?
From: Washington State Fusion Center
--- Please respond above this line ---
Mr. Quinn,
The Washington State Fusion Center did not withhold any responsive records regarding your request. Only one person publishes the InFocus and there are gaps due to holidays, vacation for the person who prepares the InFocus, sick days, technical issues, and other events where the document was not published for that day.
Respectfully,
Rhonda Tucker, FRA
