Dear Deana McCann,
I received an email to "explain part of your OPRA request. You will only get an answer to your request if you follow up with the clarification."
I had replied to your last message with regard to Body Cam footage was ready for pick up at your office, but I asked if the disc could be mailed to Brach Eichler LLC with address attached. Kindly state if that is possible and to state the full amount of disc and postage. Then we can issue the invoice to accounting so they may cut a check.

Yours sincerely,
