Request Information
Detailed information of your request:

Hello,

I hope this message finds you well and that you have had a good week so far.

I am writing for information regarding your department’s policy and procedures surrounding requests for officers’ badge numbers. In the past, I have been told that citizens are within their rights to ask for badge number identification and that officers must comply with the request, but are not required to disclose their names or other personal information. Has this policy changed or is this still the standard?

If this policy is still standard, are there any loopholes or caveats surrounding it? For example, if I am the witness to a traffic stop, am I able to request the badge numbers of officers myself? Are badge numbers always public information or is it up to the officers’ discretion?

If anyone is available, beyond receiving written information, I would also love the opportunity to set up a meeting for a recorded interview to be included inside a report that is currently in production.

Thank you so much for your time, and for keeping Los Santos safe. I look forward to hearing from you!


Warmest regards,

  • RE: Request for Information & Meeting [Weazel News]

    Dear Ms. Devil,

    Trust this mail finds you well and thank you for reaching out to us.

    You are correct that citizens of the State of San Andreas are within their rights to ask for a badge number of an employee of the Los Santos Police Department. I can confirm that this is the standard. Additionally, we do not require our employees to give out any other identifying information such as names or other personal information.

    There are no loopholes or caveats in this system that would prevent any employee of the Los Santos Police Department to give out their badge number. If it has been requested, the badge number should be given. Badge numbers are considered public information, whereas other identifying information is not considered public information. In your example, you are free to ask the officer for their badge number, however depending on the exact details of the traffic stop it could be decided to wait until the traffic stop is concluded before providing you with this information due to potential traffic related safety precautions.

    Regarding the interview the following. I have reached out to Lieutenant Tim Havlicek and he is willing to conduct this interview for you. You can reach out and make an appointment with him on the following address: [email protected].

    Might you have any remaining questions, feel free to reach out and I will provide you with a response.

    Hoping to have informed you sufficiently.

  • Kind regards,
