Anabelle McAdams v. Swampscott, Town of - Police Department (SPR 20243001)

The Commonwealth of Massachusetts William Francis Galvin, Secretary of the Commonwealth Public Records Division Manza Arthur Supervisor of Records November 15, 2024 SPR24/3001 Mike Frayler Town Clerk Swampscott Police Department 531 Humphrey Street Swampscott, MA 01907 Dear Lieutenant Frayler: I have received the petition of Anabelle McAdams appealing the response of the Swampscott 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 30, 2024, Ms. McAdams requested a police report of her “OUI that happened on 10/02/2021 around 1am.” The Department responded on October 30, 2024, withholding records. Unsatisfied with the response, Ms. McAdams petitioned this office and this appeal, SPR24/3001, was opened as a result. Subsequently, I learned that the Department provided a further response on November 13, 2024. Where this appeal was opened as a result of the Department’s October 30th response, I will now consider this administrative appeal closed. Ms. McAdams may appeal the substantive nature of the Department’s November 13th response within ninety (90) days. See 950 C.M.R. 32.08(1). Sincerely, Manza Arthur Supervisor of Records cc: Anabelle McAdams 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
