Got a tape which I'll probably be able to listen to tomorrow (I don't own a tape player), I've got the written reports, minus ages, phone numbers, and addresses, and I've got the badge numbers, and full names and ranks of the officers involved.
They did everything that we requested, other than send a copy of the possible LEIN information, because they said they aren't in control of it. We also didn't get the requested information about the specific procedures they are instituting to address open carry, however Sheriff Bouchard and I did discuss it when we talked on the phone, and it wasn't asked for in the FOIA section of the letter, only the part above it, which looking back on it was an error of mine. Because it was my fault, and not that of anyone else, I'll try and obtain this information as soon as possible.
Next time I have access to a scanner, I'm going to scan and upload this information, and post it, but I'll black out anything that could even slightly be construed as personal information, and I won't digitize and upload the recording, because we promised them this in the FOIA, and additionally, they've more than earned it with their swift and appropriate response to what happened. But the reports themselves should be posted, so I will when I can find the chance to use someones scanner.
Sorry for the teaser, I'll upload the paperwork as soon as I can. I will also PM the unabridged version of the paper work to those who were there.
I'd like to once again thank the Sheriff's Department for their extremely good response to what happened. I believe Sheriff Bouchard was serious when he said that he was philosophically in line with us, and I am confident that from this point forward, the OCSD will be a good agency to call for help if you're OCing in Oakland County and get stopped by police.
