To Whom It May Concern:
This is a request under the Freedom of Information Act. I hereby request the following records:
Any and all records pertaining to the investigation into an assault by and subsequent death of one John Wayne Tucker on (or around) August 25th 1989, to include 911 calls related to this incident, all documentation produced by responding officers, coroner's report, et al
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 20 business days, as the statute requires.
Sincerely,
Harun Krasna
From: FOIA, NPS
Dear Mr. or Ms. Krasna,
In accordance with 43 CFR 2.5(a), a requester must describe the records in
sufficient detail to enable an employee familiar with the subject area of
the request to locate responsive records with a reasonable amount of
effort. Your request does not meet this requirement. Because of the
nature of your request, we are unable to determine exactly what records you
are requesting. You did not specify where the death occurred, we are
therefore at this time unable to determine which of the more than 400
National Park Units might have responsive records.
Please be as specific as possible concerning the type of documents you are
requesting. If you know, please include the date, title or name, author,
recipient, and subject matter of the records you are seeking. Additionally,
please identify the geographical location and timeframe for which you are
seeking records. It is unclear whether your request covers only records in
the bureau’s headquarters or in its field offices as well.
We will be unable to proceed further with your request until we receive
additional clarification from you. In accordance with our regulations (43
CFR 2.51), if we do not hear from you within 20 workdays of the date of
this letter, we will assume you are no longer interested in this matter and
will close the file on your request
Sincerely,
C.

Ms. Wilson,
This occurred in the District of Columbia.

From: FOIA, NPS
Was it on NPS property or within the city itself? If it was on NPS
property, do you have a location, e.g. National Mall? I need that
information in order to determine which office might have responsive
records.

I wanted to follow up on the following Freedom of Information request, copied below, and originally submitted on Sept. 6, 2017. Please let me know when I can expect to receive a response, or if further clarification is needed.

Mr. Krasna
Because of the length of time that has passed since the death of John Wayne
Tucker, as of today we have not been able to locate the investigative
folder for this case. However, the USPP Criminal Investigations Branch is
still in the process of trying to locate the requester information.
Sorry for the inconvenience this may have caused, but it is going to take
us longer than the 20 work days to track this information down. If you
have any other questions please let me know.
Thanks

Janeen,
Thank you very much for continuing to try and locate these records. Your work is much appreciated. This has been hard, slow research without a precise date of death, and DC Metro Police dispose of records after ten years.

We are still searching for these records and has not been successful as of
yet. As I stated before, because of the length of time that has passed we
are unsure as to how long it will take for us locate this file, even more
so because you are not able to provide us with a case number. With that
being said, according to 43 CFR 2.5, we have have gone above and beyond our
duties to locate these records with a reasonable amount of effort, however,
we will continue to search.
If you have any other questions please let me know.
Thanks

Due to the amount of time that has passed, we are not able to locate the
file pertaining to Mr. Tucker's death however, we are still searching.
Please be advised that this information has been stored in our warehouse
and without the exact date of this incident and a case number it makes our
search even more difficult because it is being done manually.
Once this information has been located it will be sent out to you. If you
have any other questions, please let me know.
Thanks
