I have a question...how did WS members or other members of the public get the police repor?. I mean if you requested a copy directly...who do you contact? I know that most people just got it from MSM...but other than that is it possible for a non related, non media person to get one of those? Do you have to have special credentials or anything? Reason being, this is the first case I have EVER seen a released police report before court proceedings/sentencing. I am just wondering for my own interest as I would likely request one in several cases that I have previously followed. TIA
I don't know about NC but here in FL, I just go up to the records department and request a copy of a report. If it is close, or they are at a point that they can release it, they give it to me. I do pay for the copies. Also I have gone on line at the FBI site, and printed out the FOIA form and filled it out and they have mailed a copy of what they have. I got information for a case here that was years old and some of it, the family never knew. So, I would say try.
