HUGE FOIA NEWS / ISSUE in the Idaho 4 Case
If you didn’t tune into the live over on YouTube earlier tonight with @TypicallyUnique @BronxTailsTrueCrime @connor..h8 @TruCrimeCafewithDago and myself you need to go listen! You will hear us talking about the issue that was found related to FOIAs! 🚨
When MPD receives a FOIA request they are only searching their Spillman System, never the separate Synology server. Tim Smalldridge’s own sworn declaration confirms it: the Synology holds 2.3M+ files (58 TB) of digital evidence, and it’s a separate system from what gets searched on a FOIA request.
That’s why 40 of our 133 tracked requests (~30%) have come back “No Records. Does Not Exist.” including documented interviews like Reid Uptmor, DJ Myers, and Nick Matowich.
This is a huge problem. Public records are being held from the public and taxpayers because MPD wasn’t able to successfully label the files stored on the Synology server, which stores over 59.18 TERABYTES OF DATA.
So we sent a new request: the directory tree of the Synology itself. No name search, no room to hide behind a mislabeled folder. We need to know all of the data that is stored in this server!
