Nice Job Nik.
One question, If you filed an ORR for the 911 call, how come the police did not give you the info on the 2nd call?
Seems to me they are in violation of the Open Records Law by not disclosing that info to you.
Ok, two questions. We no through experience that these departments do not learn anything unless you take their money. Why is WCI only going after attorney fees? Feel free to respond in a PM if you like. I am just curious.
Seems to me that if you don't hit them where it hurts they will just continue with the same behavior until someone does.

But if WCI has submitted an Open Records Request then that 2nd call should have been included in that information whether it was made through the 911 system or not as it is related to the same incident. Therefore, the MPD is in violation of the federal law.
If there is no information, the Chief Wray is lying and this should be exploited to the media so everyone knows the truth. Seems he isn't very "Noble " is he? Guess he is afraid people like his son may be out there carrying guns.
It could be that the original request was to specific on the incident and the 2nd call was excluded. But, as you said, if the request was timely and somewhat general in it's nature, all communications should have been included with the 1st call tape or transcript.
This Chief is an Idiot. He really has no understanding of the law. What is his background?

EXCERPT said:Born in 1960, Wray grew up poor in Milwaukee, Wisconsin during an era when police were a menacing presence for poor black people. The seventh of 10 children raised by Catholic parents, he lived across the street from St. Boniface Church, ground zero for Milwaukee's turbulent civil rights movement. The brutality he witnessed made him resent law enforcement. http://www.thedailypage.com/isthmus/article.php?article=4634
As a teenager, the first wave of Chicago street gangs arrived, which prompted Wray's parents to secure him a place at a boarding school in northern Wisconsin.
Following high school Wray attended UW-Milwaukee where he intended to pursue a political science major, until he switched into criminal justice instead. He graduated from the college and received a bachelor of science in criminal justice. After college, Wray briefly worked at a liquor store until at age 23 and married, he filed an application at the Madison Police Department. He was then hired in 1984, and has been employed with the MPD ever since.
Isn't it ironic. In the biography snip that Doug posted it says "The brutality he (Wray) witnessed made him resent law-enforcement". Now he is one of the resented.
I like to refer to them as Village Idiots, though some see that term as being "mean spirited" and "angry." And I have no problem with being called angry because some group of Village Idiots get elected and write ordinances blindly because they can with no regard to decorum or process.
Call the spade a spade, a pile of crap a pile of crap, and a village idiot the village idiot.
As Ted Nugent says . . . stop me when I lie!
