BWC Footage Request
Dear Bergen County,
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:
To the Records Custodian,
I am requesting all body-worn camera and squad car footage, as well as the full incident report regarding the arrest of Gabrielle Alliyah Curbelo, who was charged with Resisting Arrest (Use/Threat of Force Against LEO), Aggravated Assault on a Law Enforcement Officer, Throwing Bodily Fluid at Law Enforcement Officer, and Disorderly Conduct on April 28, 2023, in Bergen County, New Jersey.
If there are any fees for searching or copying these records, please inform me prior to fulfilling the request if the cost will exceed $30. However, I would also like to request a waiver of all fees, as the disclosure of the requested information is in the public interest and will contribute significantly to the public’s understanding of law enforcement encounters and use of force incidents.
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.
Dear Bergen County,
Apologies for the duplicate request, you may close this request.
Yours faithfully,
Joseph Campbell
