To Whom It May Concern:
This is a request under the Freedom of Information Act. I hereby request the following records:
The slideshow that the DEA's Office of Professional Responsibility uses to train DEA agents and their houses ahead of overseas assignments.
In the hearing before the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform, DEA Administrator Leonhart indicated that this slideshow included information about prostitution and security clearances, among other topics.
Given that this FOIA is submitted in my capacity as a journalist who has covered law enforcement extensively, I request that I be categorized as a media requester for the purpose of fees. Here is a selection of my published articles:
I have also been published in a number of national media outlets:

As the requested documents will be made available to the general public free of charge as part of the public information service at MuckRock.com and pertains to a matter of considerable public interest, I further request a full waiver of all fees in addition to being classified as a media requester.
In the event that 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 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 20 business days, as the statute requires.
Sincerely,
Shawn Musgrave
