Dear Monmouth County Prosecutor's Office,
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:
The total number of forensic interviews conducted at the Monmouth County Child Advocacy Center (CAC) for minors in:
a. Calendar year 2023
b. Calendar year 2024 (to date)
Of those interviews, please indicate how many were initiated by:
a. A referral from a school (particularly public elementary schools) within Neptune Township
b. A referral from the New Jersey Division of Child Protection and Permanency (DCPP)
If available, please provide a breakdown showing whether parental notice or consent was obtained prior to removal and transport of the child to the CAC.
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.
