MuckRock provided its log of communications to the city on July 12th. Kimberly Scanlon, the records access officer for the City of Medford, forwarded this log to Elanor Whalen, the records access officer for the MPD, in an email that was also disregarded.
In a final attempt to receive an acknowledgement of pending requests, on July 19th, MuckRock physically brought into the station all pending requests, which Officer Thomas Maloney confirmed would be delivered to the records department.
