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:
Police Body worn camera footage of all motor vehicle accidents between 7-1 and 7-7-25
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.
The maximum authorized cost is $0.
I kindly request that any special service fee be waved as there is a significant public interest in this information
Yours faithfully,

Hello,
Your OPRA request has been received.
The search for, "Police Body worn camera footage of all motor vehicle
accidents between 7-1 and 7-7-25" has resulted in a total of ten motor
vehicle accidents. Due to multiple officers responding to each motor
vehicle accident for extended periods of time, your request is being
denied. The massive amount of body camera to review and make appropriate
redactions under OPRA guidelines would result in a substantial disruption
in the operations of this records department.
Thank you for your understanding in this matter.
Kindly,
Ioanie Alleman #461
