The Siskiyou County Sheriff's Office has reviewed your request and has determined that the records requested are exempt from disclosure under public records law for the following reasons: Gov Code 7923.625(a)(1)-During an active investigation, disclosure of a recording related may be delayed if disclosure would interfere with the investigation.
