To Whom It May Concern:
Pursuant to Wisconsin's Open Records act, I hereby request the following records:
Any body camera footage taken from the Standing Rock protest camp evictions on February 22nd, 23rd, and 24th of 2017.
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 would request your response within ten (10) business days.

Mr. Waltman,
This is a response to an Open Records Request we received from you on March 7th, 2017.
You request, "Any body camera footage taken from the Standing Rock protest camp evictions on February 22nd, 23rd and 24th of 2017."
This request is denied as those records don't exist. The Wisconsin State Patrol does not use body cameras.
If you have any questions please let me know. Also, if you could respond that you receive this response I would appreciate it as you state this is your preferred method of us responding. In the past, I have sent things to you and received follow up requests for the same information.
Thanks!

Thank you for the info, I also wanted to check up on another request I have out with the WSP, a more general request that I haven't heard back on. Thanks!

I have two requests from you that we have been waiting to see if we have the information you requested.
One of them is a list of documents and requests we may have received from North Dakota agencies.
The other is arrest reports for anyone taken into custody on February 22nd, 23rd and 24th of 2017.
The information you are requesting is still being reviewed and I don't know if that information exists.
Please let me know if this is the information you are looking for.
Thanks!
