PCJF Obtains More Heavily Redacted Documents on OWS from Homeland Security

Homeland Security releases third round of documents to PCJF

Last Updated: July 31, 2012 at 1:30 p.m.

The Partnership for Civil Justice Fund has obtained a third round of documents from the Department of Homeland Security in response to our Freedom of Information Act request made in November 2011. The PCJF has sought information about the role of federal law enforcement agencies, including the Department of Homeland Security, in the coordinated nationwide crackdown that led to the eviction of Occupy encampments in cities throughout the United States.

The request was made also on behalf of author and filmmaker Michael Moore and the National Lawyers Guild Mass Defense Committee. The PCJF has uploaded the documents in searchable format and is making the documents publicly available for review here. We'll also be tweeting interesting findings so follow us - and check out the documents for yourself!
