Would HUPD be subject to FOIA. I know the school wouldn't be, but a police department w/ sworn officers, power of arrest, etc. is "public", yes?

Usual process, at least with federal agencies:

- send in the foia, some of them have online interfaces to do it

- they reject the foia because, why not?

- challenge it (no one does) and usually they give in

would be interesting to have them produce all their emails and such related to the black tape investigation. wouldn't surprise me if they've somehow been "ooops" deleted

depends on the subject area, but incriminating wouldn't be something that justifies it. it's more like say you're requesting something from the SEC and a company has shared some things that are internal, that'll be redacted because otherwise it would discourage companies from being forthcoming.

but who makes that determination of what will be redacted? i understand there's probably some rules of what "justifies" it, im asking in practice couldnt and dont they just redact everything that makes them look bad? if they redact a whole page, you wouldnt even know if whatever was there WOULD be justified for being redacted.

i guess what im saying is there some sort of third party/independent agency or judge that reviews these before release? or at least one you could appeal to?

lol

https://www.hupd.harvard.edu/about

"Officers have the authority to enforce state and local laws and University policies.

Security officers do not have the power the arrest."

i dont really understand how these two statements work together lol. if they dont have power to arrest, what is their "enforcement" mechanism exactly.

i'm thinking they're probably private, except if they're associated with a public university.

and no, it was a super chill job that at the time paid like 4x minimum wage. we had 3 officers on patrol at any given time, and 2 were assigned to a government research area so literally was just cruising around in a jeep; if nightshift we'd listen to art bell and shit.

i mostly did it for the $ & was somewhat interested in a fed LE position, but like US Marshal service until I learned that a bunch of those dudes have boring details like courthouses and prisoner transport
