The Commonwealth of Massachusetts William Francis Galvin, Secretary of the Commonwealth Public Records Division Manza Arthur Supervisor of Records November 21, 2025 SPR25/3301 Kevin M. Gould, Esq. General Counsel Worcester County Sheriff’s Office 5 Paul X. Tivnan Drive West Boylston, MA 01583 Dear Attorney Gould: I have received the petition of Brian Davis appealing the response of the Worcester County Sheriff’s Office (Office) to a request for public records. See G. L. c. 66, § l0A; see also 950 C.M.R. 32.08(1). On October 21, 2025, Mr. Davis requested, “[v]ideo Surveillance from Cameras of J Block at approximate [sic] 8:15 PM - 8:50 PM (20:15 - 20:50) on . . . October 7, 2025. . . . [i]ncluding but not limited to, any camera that Cell 276 is within view of[.]” The Office provided a response on October 31, 2025. Unsatisfied with the response, Mr. Davis petitioned this office, and this appeal, SPR25/3301, was opened as a result. Subsequently, I learned that the Office provided a further response to Mr. Davis and this office in an email on November 13, 2025. Where this appeal was opened as a result of the Office’s October 31, 2025 response, I will now consider this administrative appeal closed. Mr. Davis may appeal the substantive nature of the Office’s November 13th response within ninety (90) days. See 950 C.M.R. 32.08(1). Sincerely, Manza Arthur Supervisor of Records cc: Brian Davis 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
