So, the vindictive DOJ says that they need a year (that’s right, 1 year) to process about 1500 E-mails (and their attachments). This was after I narrowed the scope. My previous request return 80,000 documents.
The FBI has declared that they cannot find the NIT reports (16 or so) that I requested, so I have to wait a year to convince the judge that their response is/was nonsense and order them to find the “missing” reports, so the soonest that I’ll have them is sometime in 2025!
So here is the “new” scope – 1500 or so Emails from Becker to the following categories of documents between January 1, 2012, and January 31, 2016:
- Emails to Podhradsky, Stroschein, and Meinke (Meinke is news to me, he wasn’t my expert)
- Emails to addresses with foreign suffixes
- Emails referencing NIT warrants between January 2012-August 2015 without attachments
- Emails containing references to Rules 41 or 41b between the dates 9/1/2013-3/1/2015
- Emails from Becker between January 1, 2012 through November 31, 2012, plus attachments.
- Emails from Becker to private attorneys in 2014.
And so I await the first batch of redacted documents. Meanwhile, you should check this out, the government is watching you.
