Dear Tony Johnson,

The City received a public information request from you on May 06, 2024.
Your request mentioned:

OPRA request - Body Camera footage

Dear Jersey City,

This is a request for public records made under OPRA and the common law
right of access. I am not required to fill out an official form. Please
acknowledge receipt of this message.
Records requested:
I am reaching out to request a copy of a body footage From a Jersey City
police officer
Police Officer Name: F.Gallagher
Unit: (Street crime unit)
Police badge number 1099
Police case number 21-123094
Case S-2021 2035

Yours faithfully,
Tony Johnson

The City has reviewed your request and has determined that the records
requested are criminal investigatory records that are exempt from
disclosure. N.J.S.A. 47:1A-1.1 specifically states that "a government
record shall not include the following information which is deemed to be
confidential for the purposes of P.L.1963, c.73 (C.47:1A-1 et seq.) as
amended and supplemented: [...] criminal investigatory records." N.J.S.A.
47:1A-1.1 defines a criminal investigatory record as "a record which is
not required by law to be made, maintained or kept on file that is held by
a law enforcement agency which pertains to any criminal investigation or
related civil enforcement proceeding.”

Please also note that your request for Body Cam footage is past the
retention period of 180 days (six months). 

In view of the foregoing your request is now complete.  Thank you.

Sincerely,
Hjordys Espinal
Office of City Clerk
