I hope they took you someplace nice for lunch...You might want to file a FOI request on yourself, just to see how much they censor. ;) They might think you're the ringleader, after all the FBI doesn't buy peons lunch. ;)
For the benifit of myself and the list, how would you go about doing that?
Fill out this form letter, get it notarized and send it to the address in the letterhead. Be prepared to wait and get jerked around. I have heard that some FOI requests have taken as long as two years to get back. Sam PRIVACY ACT & FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT REQUEST (date) (requester's name and address) Federal Bureau of Investigation Records Management Division - FOIA/PA Office 9th & Pennsylvania Avenue NW Washington, DC 20535 Gentlemen: This is a request for records under the provisions of both the Privacy Act (5 USC 552b) and the Freedom of Information Act (5 USC 522). This request is being made under both Acts. I hereby request one copy of any and all records about me or referencing me maintained at the FBI. This includes (but should not be limited to) documents, reports, memoranda, letters, electronic files, database references, "do not file" files, photographs, audio tapes, videotapes, electronic or photographic surveillance, "june mail", mail covers, and other miscellaneous files, and index citations relating to me or referencing me in other files. My full name is:___________________________________ My date of birth was______________ My place of birth was:______________________________ My social security #:______________ I have lived in these places: Other names, places, events, organizations or other references under which you may find applicable records: As you know, FOIA/PA regulations provide that even if some requested material is properly exempt from mandatory disclosure, all segregable portions must be released. If the requested material is released with deletions, I ask that each deletion be marked to indicate the exemption(s) being claimed to authorize each particular withholding. In addition, I ask that your agency exercise its discretion to release any records which may be technically exempt, but where withholding serves no important public interest. I hereby agree to pay reasonable costs associated with this request up to a maximum of $25 without my additional approval. However, I strongly request a fee waiver because this is, in part, a Privacy Act request. This letter and my signature have been certified by a notary public as marked below.
