To Whom It May Concern:
Pursuant to the Freedom of Information Act, I hereby request the following records:
All investigative reports from the investigation into Sprint Communications regarding its overbilling of federal law enforcement agencies for intercept charges under the Communications Assistance in Law Enforcement Act (“CALEA”).
Per the attached 2015 press release: "The investigation by OIG and the U.S. Attorney’s Office revealed that from 2007 to 2010, in violation of the FCC’s ruling, Sprint nevertheless included in its intercept charges the hidden costs of financing its CALEA upgrades."
The 2014 press release similarly indicates: "The prosecution [of Sprint] is the result of an investigation by the Department of Justice Office of Inspector General."
As I am submitting this request in my capacity as a professional reporter, I assert that I am appropriately categorized as a media requester for the purpose of fees. 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,
Shawn Musgrave
