Any experience out there requesting FBI 199 & 265 case files? Seems these are quite rare.

I’m working on request involving the Virginia Jihad Network case which is noted on the fourth page of this 9/11 Report MFR indicating that it was one of these unique dual criminal/terrorism files.

Have you checked the FBI FOIA log? That’s where I’d start on something like this – see whether anyone else has requested similar case files, request the responsive documents sent for that request and then shape your request according to those documents.

No luck there but still a great tip!
