Body-worn and vehicle-mounted camera recordings\n\u2022 All body-worn camera recordings from every responding officer, supervisor, or specialized response unit.\n\u2022 All dashboard-camera and in-car video recordings, associated audio, and available metadata.\n\u2022 Footage documenting the response, contacts, detentions, questioning, and departure from the scene.\n\u2022 Relevant footage captured immediately before arrival or after departure.\n\u2022 All nonexempt footage, including exterior and street-level portions, even if interior footage requires separate\nreview.\n5.

Previously Disclosed Police Records\nCNN's October 8, 2026, reporting states that journalists reviewed two police reports relating to the reported\nincident. Accordingly, I specifically request:\n1.

Any additional versions, amendments, or supplemental reports that are subject to disclosure.\n4. Existing records reflecting prior release of those reports to media organizations or other requesters.\nThe reported prior availability of these records is relevant to identifying material already disclosed. Please do\nnot withhold initial incident reports solely because an investigation remains pending: O.C.G.A. \u00a7\n50-18-72(a)(4) distinguishes initial incident reports from other pending investigative materials.\nV. Exemptions, Redactions, and Partial Production\nI recognize that Georgia law provides specific exemptions for certain records and protected information.\nPlease apply any exemptions as narrowly as required by law and produce every reasonably segregable\nnonexempt portion of responsive records. For any record or portion withheld:\n1. Identify the withheld record or category of records.\n2. Identify the specific Georgia statutory provision supporting the withholding or redaction.\n3. State whether the basis is a pending investigation, privacy, protected information, or another exemption.\n4. Release all portions that are not lawfully exempt.\n5. Identify whether and when a temporary investigative exemption may cease to apply, if ascertainable.\nWhere legally appropriate, please redact protected residential addresses, personal telephone numbers, or\nother protected identifying information rather than withholding entire otherwise-disclosable records.\n\n--- Page 4 ---\nJOHNS CREEK POLICE DEPARTMENT  |  GEORGIA OPEN RECORDS ACT REQUEST\nPage 4\nVI. Preservation of Electronic Evidence\nBecause body-camera footage, dispatch communications, surveillance video, and telephone recordings may\nbe subject to retention or automatic overwriting schedules, please promptly identify responsive materials\nand take any preservation measures authorized or required by applicable law and retention policies. Please\nidentify responsive materials already deleted, overwritten, or unavailable if existing records document that\nfact. This request to preserve materials accompanies, and does not replace, the request for production.\nVII. Electronic Production and Fees\nPlease produce records electronically in their original electronic formats where reasonably available,\nincluding PDFs, original audio and video files, and native electronic records where practicable. Please provide\nrecords on a rolling basis as they become available.\nIf anticipated search, retrieval, review, or production charges will exceed $100, please provide an itemized\nestimate and obtain advance authorization before incurring charges beyond that amount.\nIf the scope creates substantial costs or delays, please prioritize initial incident reports, 911 and dispatch\nrecords, and materials relating to the October 6 incident. This priority is not a withdrawal of the remaining\ncategories.\nVIII. Statutory Response Requirement\nUnder O.C.G.A. \u00a7 50-18-71(b), the Department must comply with applicable response obligations within three\nbusiness days of receipt. If records cannot reasonably be produced during that period, please provide the\nlegally required description of unavailable responsive records and a timetable for production. Any denial or\npartial denial must identify the specific statutory authority under O.C.G.A. \u00a7 50-18-71(d).\nPlease acknowledge receipt, assign a tracking number, and direct all correspondence and electronic\nproductions to the requester using the contact details supplied below.\nThank you for your attention to this request and for your compliance with Georgia's public-records laws.\nRespectfully,\nSignature: _________________________________________________________\nPrinted name: _____________________________________________________\nEmail: _____________________________________________________________\nTelephone (optional): ______________________________________________","text":"--- Page 1 ---\nJOHNS CREEK POLICE DEPARTMENT  |  GEORGIA OPEN RECORDS ACT REQUEST\nPage 1\nGEORGIA OPEN RECORDS ACT | FORMAL RECORDS REQUEST\nJohns Creek Police Department\nOctober 2026 Swatting Incidents\nDate: October 14, 2026\nVia electronic submission\nOpen Records Officer / Custodian of Records\nJohns Creek Police Department\nCity of Johns Creek\n11360 Lakefield Drive\nJohns Creek, GA 30097\nRE: FORMAL GEORGIA OPEN RECORDS ACT REQUEST - ALL OCTOBER 2026 SWATTING INCIDENTS,\nINCLUDING THE REPORTED OCTOBER 6, 2026 INCIDENT INVOLVING LUCILE HARRIETT CRAIG (LUCY\nCRAIG)\nDear Open Records Officer:\nPursuant to the Georgia Open Records Act, O.C.G.A. \u00a7\u00a7 50-18-70 through 50-18-77, I hereby request\nelectronic copies of all existing, nonexempt public records in the possession, custody, or control of the Johns\nCreek Police Department and the City of Johns Creek concerning reported swatting incidents, false\nemergency reports, and related police responses occurring between October 1, 2026, and the date this\nrequest is received.\nThis request specifically includes the widely publicized police response to the family residence of Lucile\nHarriett Craig, also known as Lucy Craig, reportedly occurring on Tuesday, October 6, 2026, at approximately\n7:00 p.m. Eastern Time.\nI.
