Mr. McHale,
We are denying the under 47:1A-1 Privacy Interest. This is a mental medical issue, the rights of the victim (including theirs families)outweigh the publics right to know. If you have any more questions you can look at the case Alfano vs. Margate.

Thank You,
Heather Ewen

Dear Toms River Police Department,

Please accept this electronic request for public records made under OPRA and the common law right of access. I am not required to fill out an official form or use a particular software platform to submit my request per NJSA 47:1A-6(f), which states that an email from a requestor including all of the information required on the adopted form shall suffice in place of a completed form as a valid government record request.

I HAVE NOT been convicted of any indictable offense under the laws of New Jersey, any other state, or the United States.

I WILL NOT use the requested government records for a commercial purpose.

I AM NOT seeking records in connection with a legal proceeding.

Records requested:BWC footage from first responders at the Browns Wood Call on 9-22-25

CAD records and 911 callers' audio, possibly OCSD, are best for that data. Please include a dash cam if other requests are not fulfilled.

My preferred delivery method for response(s) to this request is by E-mail as attachments. Please confirm you have received this request. If you are not the custodian of records, please forward my request to that person and provide their email address to me for future reference.

Yours faithfully,

Michael McHale
