The race and ethnicity of any and all victims/suspects/citizens/residents/members of the public involved
The gender/sex of any and all officers involved
The gender/sex of any and all ictims/suspects/citizens/residents/members of the public involved
I prefer this data be sent to me in a machine-readable format, such as a Word or Excel Document, rather than a PDF.
Please note which data points requested are not collected, if there are any.
If there are any fees for searching or copying these records, please inform me. However, I would also like to request a waiver of all fees in that the disclosure of the requested information is in the public interest. This information is not being sought for commercial purposes and will be used in a piece I’m writing for The MetroWest Daily News.
The Massachusetts Public Records Act requires a response to this request within 10 days. If access to the records I am requesting will take longer than this amount of time, please contact me with information about when I might expect copies or the ability to inspect the requested records. My email address is jhinkle@wickedlocal.com and my phone number is 774-405-2896.
If you deny any or all of this request, please cite each specific exemption you feel justifies the refusal to release the information and notify me of the appeal procedures available to me under the law.
Thank you for considering my request.
Sincerely,
Jeannette Hinkle
