Dear Sacramento County Sheriff staff / SRO I Ashley Moore:
Thank you for your response to my Public Records Act request for purchase and deployment records of certain equipment used by the Sacramento County Sheriff's Office. I appreciate it.
The records you disclosed were responsive to point #1 of my request. However, you did not respond to two other parts of the request. Parts #2 and #3 were as follows:
2. Purchase records, invoices, procurement documents and other documents sufficient to show any and all disbursement of public funds for the acquisition by your agency since July 1, 2018 of explosives and pyrotechnics, such as "flash bang" grenades and explosive breaching tools, and chemical weapons such as "teargas" and "pepper balls".
3. Records of deployment by your agency since January 1, 2020 of projectile launch platforms, such as 40mm projectile launchers, "bean bag" or specialty impact munition ("SIM") weapons, and "riot guns" used to disperse chemical agents; explosives and pyrotechnics, such as "flashbang" grenades and explosive breaching tools; and chemical weapons such as "teargas" and "pepper balls".
Please let me know whether you conducted a search for the records described in #2 and #3 of the request, and if so, what was the outcome. If you found responsive records and are withholding them, please let me know which exemption from the California Public Records Act you are invoking, for which part of each request.
Thanks in advance for your assistance.
best,
John Lindsay-Poland

Dear Sheriff staff,
Request #22-115 should remain open, as the agency has not responded to point #3 of our request, which was part of our original request:
3. Records of deployment by your agency since January 1, 2020 of projectile launch platforms, such as 40mm projectile launchers, "bean bag" or specialty impact munition ("SIM") weapons, and "riot guns" used to disperse chemical agents; explosives and pyrotechnics, such as "flashbang" grenades and explosive breaching tools; and chemical weapons such as "teargas" and "pepper balls".
Please let me know whether you conducted a search for the records described in #3 of the request, and if so, what was the outcome. If you found responsive records and are withholding them, please let me know which exemption from the California Public Records Act you are invoking, for which part of the request.
Thank you.

Dear Sheriff staff,
Regarding CPRA 21-415, some responsive material was released. Your April 21 message states that "CPRA 21-415 responsive material was released, there are no other records to release for that request." However, you did not indicate whether a search was conducted for records that were part of my request, namely:
3. Records of deployment by your agency since January 1, 2020 of projectile launch platforms, such as 40mm projectile launchers, "bean bag" or specialty impact munition ("SIM") weapons, and "riot guns" used to disperse chemical agents; explosives and pyrotechnics, such as "flashbang" grenades and explosive breaching tools; and chemical weapons such as "teargas" and "pepper balls".
As I requested in my March 28 communication, please indicate, as required by the CPRA, whether you conducted a search for these records and found no responsive records, or whether you found records and have determined that they are exempt under the CPRA. If you have determined that they are exempt, please indicate under what provision of the CPRA you are making that determination, as required by the CPRA.
best,
John Lindsay-Poland
