Special Incident Reports - Immediate Disclosure Request - SFPD

Chief Scott and Police Department,

Below are Immediate Disclosure Requests (SF Admin Code 67.25(a)). Rolling records responses are requested (SFAC 67.25(d)) if you are unable to immediately produce all records. Exact copies of every responsive record are requested (Gov Code 6253(b)) - do not or print and scan electronic records or provide black and white versions of any color record. Provide only copies of records not requiring fees and in-person inspection of all other records (GC 6253).

1. Incident report 130188386 (initial and supplementals/amendeds)
2. Incident report 130184889 (initial and supplementals/amendeds)

Your non-exhaustive obligations: All withholding of any information must be justified (SFAC 67.27). All withholdings by masking or deletion (aka redactions) must be keyed by footnote or other clear reference to justification and only the minimal exempt portion of a record may be withheld (SFAC 67.26). Respond to emailed requests (SFAC 67.21(b)). You must notify us of whether or not responsive records exist and/or were withheld for each below request (Gov Code 6253(c), 6255(b)). You must state the name and title of each person responsible for withholding any information (Gov Code 6253(d)). You must do all of this in your response, and you cannot wait until we file complaints. If you wait to comply with the Sunshine Ordinance until after we file complaints, we will not withdraw any complaints and request SOTF find you in violation, regardless of what you do after filing.

****** We have no duty to, and we will not again, remind the City of its obligations. Instead, we will file complaints for every Sunshine Ordinance or CPRA violation. We will continue to file complaints until your procedures are modified to fully comply with the Sunshine Ordinance and CPRA, without caveat or exception. ******

Please indicate "no responsive records" for each request if that is true.

NOTE: Please be certain you have properly redacted all of your responses. Once you send them to us, there is no going back. The email address sending this request is a publicly- viewable mailbox. All of your responses (including all responsive records) may be instantly and automatically available to the public online via the MuckRock.com FOIA service used to issue this request (though the requester is an anonymous user, not a representative of MuckRock). Nothing herein is legal, IT, or professional advice of any kind. The author disclaims all warranties, express or implied, including but not limited to all warranties of merchantability or fitness.

Please provide as an immediate disclosure request exact copies of all Incident reports from september 20 2009 with a REPORTED date/time of between 1:40pm and 2:00pm.

Supervisor of Records,

In August 2020, I requested from SFPD:
1. Incident report 130188386 (initial and supplementals/amendeds)
2. Incident report 130184889 (initial and supplementals/amendeds)

#1 was never provided.
#2 has what appear to be numerous redactions, none lawfully justified.

Please determine in writing both records public and order them disclosed.

SOTF:

Please file new complaint: Anonymous (this email address) vs San Francisco Police Department.
Allegations: 67.21, 67.26, 67.27

On August 7 2020 I requested two incident reports from SFPD as an immediate disclosure request.
On August 20 2020, SFPD responded to one of the requests. An initial IDR response was provided timely and is not at issue here.

67.26 - The report is redacted. No justification for any redactions is provided. I also believe it is over-redacted. THere is no reason that the public cannot know for example but not only the location of the incident. Furthermore, because these are not exact copies of the original incident report and they use white redaction it is impossible to tell what even was redacted vs what isn't in the report.

67.21/67.27 - incomplete response: No response (whether or not they had responsive records) was provided to the other request, and no justification was provided for withholding it.

Request and response attached.

Ms. Leger: please attach the following 3 files in to the complaint (they are the responsive records):
