DOJ National Security Division’s International Terrorism and Terrorism-Related Statistics Chart

To Whom It May Concern:

Pursuant to the Freedom of Information Act, I hereby request the following records:

- The most up-to-date version of the DOJ National Security Division’s International Terrorism and Terrorism-Related Statistics Chart, as of the date your office processes this request. A prior version of the chart was previously released on 4-20-2018, with convictions through 12-31-2017; I am asking for the most recent update with convictions through 12-31-2019.

Please provide the chart in CSV, XLS, or XLSX format, pursuant to 5 U.S.C. § 552(a)(3)(B) (“In making any record available to a person under this paragraph, an agency shall provide the record in any form or format requested by the person if the record is readily reproducible by the agency in that form or format”).

I am at Stanford Law School and am working on a research project about terrorism prosecutions. 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 email attachment if available or CD-ROM if not.

Thank you in advance for your anticipated cooperation in this matter.

I look forward to receiving your response to this request within 20 business days, as the statute requires.

Sincerely,
Sarah Beller

Ms. Mallory,

Thanks so much for your help with this request! I really appreciate it. I notice the convictions have been updated through December 2018 - is the list of convictions through 2019 available now that it's well into 2020?

Thank you,
Sarah Beller

Ms. Mallory,

Apologies if I'm misunderstanding - the chart still seems to only include convictions through 2018, even though some parts have sentencing dates updated through 2019. It seems unlikely that there were zero convictions in 2019 on the list.

Thank you,
Sarah
