To Whom It May Concern:

Pursuant to the The Missouri Sunshine Law, I hereby request the following records:

Email messages from any ICE employee to any Christian County Sheriff’s Department employee in 2018.

You can fulfill this request by searching the primary contacts who have interacted with ICE regarding immigration detainees at the Christian County Jail. Searching for “@ice.dhs.gov” between 1/1/18 and 12/31/18 should provide all responsive documents.

I am a member of the news media and request a waiver of all search and production fees. I am writing a news article on the relationship between Christian County and ICE.

The requested documents will be made available to the general public, and this request is not being made for commercial purposes.

In the event that there are fees, I would be grateful if you would inform me of the total charges in advance of fulfilling my request. I would prefer the request filled electronically, by e-mail attachment if available or CD-ROM if not.

RE: Sunshine Law Request

Dear Mr. Hoppock:

As the Christian County Counselor, I wanted to follow up with respect to the Sheriff Department's response to your Sunshine Law Request dated February 14, 2019. We have been in contact with our IT consultant regarding the retrieval of the email messages from any ICE employee to any Christian County Sheriff's Department employee in 2018. Our consultant states a search of our servers will take approximately one week to locate and retrieve the ICE emails. Our IT provider will charge the Sheriff's Department the sum of $200.00 to do so. After we have obtained the emails you requested, it will then be necessary to review them to determine if any contain closed records, confidential information or personal data that must be redacted before they are produced to you. We estimate this process will take approximately 5 days to complete.

Section 610.206 RSMo. provides for the payment of reasonable fees for the actual cost of research and duplication. At this point, if the Sheriff's Office, in conjunction with our IT consultant conducts a search for the records sought in your Sunshine Law Request, it is estimated the Sheriff's out of pocket costs for IT fees is $200.00 plus at least 3 hours of staff time to review the emails and copy them onto a disk. The Sheriff's Department bills out staff at the rate of $12.40 per hour. If you are willing to pay the search and copy costs which we estimate to be $237.20, please confirm in writing and we will commence the process to located, retrieve and produce digitally any open public records you have requested.

Very truly yours,

John W. Housley
Office Christian County Counselor

Good morning. I am writing to follow up on this request for emails with ICE officials from 2018. I understand Missouri law requires the agency to provide the earliest date that the requested records will be available and to explain the extent of the delay. See Gross v. Parson (attached). These records were requested in February 2019. At that time I was asked if I would be willing to pay the processing cost ($200) and I said that I would. Since then I have not received any further information. Can you please let us know when these records will be available? Thank you.
