The Commonwealth of Massachusetts William Francis Galvin, Secretary of the Commonwealth Public Records Division Manza Arthur Supervisor of Records November 1, 2022 SPR22/2372 Captain Douglas S. Marcus Peabody Police Department 6 Allens Lane Peabody, MA 01960 Dear Captain Marcus: I have received the petition of Andrew Quemere appealing the response of the Peabody Police Department (Department) to a request for public records. See G. L. c. 66, § 10A; see also 950 C.M.R. 32.08(1). On October 16, 2022, Mr. Quemere requested “[a]ll reports related to the June 1989 arrest of [an identified person], who was charged with operating under the influence of liquor, operating under the influence of drugs, and operating to endanger.” On October 19, 2022, the Department provided a response along with the incident Report Number 89008924, in redacted format under Exemption (a) of the Public Records Law and the Criminal Offender Record Information Act (CORI). As a result, on October 19th, Mr. Quemere petitioned the Supervisor of Records, and this appeal was opened. Subsequently, I learned that the Department provided a supplemental response on October 24, 2022. As this appeal was opened based on the Department’s October 19th response, I will now consider this administrative appeal closed. Mr. Quemere may further appeal the substantive nature of the Department’s October 24th response within ninety (90) days. See 950 C.M.R. 32.08(1). Sincerely, Manza Arthur Supervisor of Records cc: Andrew Quemere One Ashburton Place, Room 1719, Boston, Massachusetts 02108 • (617) 727-2832• Fax: (617) 727-5914 sec.state.ma.us/pre • pre@sec.state.ma.us
