Dear Morales, Krista,
Thank you for the records provided. The credentials and employment history for the public information officer were not requested. The resume of Ms. Gallagher will deleted on my end. I only asked for a name and supervising attorney of the public information officer for a narrow period of time.
Yours sincerely,
