Dan Bucholz District 1 Commissioner 218-849-2143/218-346-3575, Wayne D. Johnson District 2 Commissioner (Vice Chair) 218-863-7500, Kurt Mortenson District 3 Commissioner 218-205-2415, Betty Murphy District 4 Commissioner (Chair) 218-640-1706, Leland (Lee) Rogness District 5 Commissioner 218-770-7066:
Why oh why Otter Tail County Sheriff Barry Fitzgibbons 218-998-8534 and Otter Tail County Attorney Michelle Eldien 218-998-8400 both willfully refused to respond to my Chapter 13 Data Request for 13.82 Subd. 7. Criminal investigative data that Stacy Schoon alleged that was illegally withheld from her? Are both Fitzgibbons and Eldien mad at me because I pointed out the obvious fact that they had not obtained fingerprints nor mugshots from Stacy? Are both Fitzgibbons and Eldien mad at me because the fingerprints and the mugshots might convince Stacy to withdraw her guilty plea or appeal her criminal conviction? Do you think that might be a motive for both Fitzgibbons and Eldien to willfully refuse to respond to me?

P.S. How many people with mental problems do you take advantage of in a single week?
Government entities should respond in one of three ways 1. Provide access to the data (and copies when requested) 2. Inform you the data are classified as not public (must give statute section) 3. Inform you the data do not exist • Not responding is not a proper response. Minnesota Department of Administration - Information Policy Analysis Division - Can I ask for that? Government Data Practices Minnesota Statutes, Chapter 13 page 12.
A response five weeks later is neither prompt nor reasonable. Although the Department did not provide information about its data practices policies and procedures, in instances like this one, those procedures ought to provide for a response within a matter of days, not weeks.

I have spoken with Jeff Wilde. Jeff Wilde stated that he has known Stacy Schoon for the last six or seven years and has known her through friends. Jeff stated that Stacy Schoon used to bartend in Underwood. Jeff stated a couple years ago he used to hang around her.

Jeff Wilde suspected that Stacy got his credit card information when they were in Mazatlán in March 2019. She would have been in his hotel room, and he kept his debit card in the hotel room. Page 3.
