Q: Privacy Act Request Appeals to compel a Judge to release records due to illegal law enforcement and intelligence tactics

I filed Privacy Act Requests with every government agency possible for all records of myself. Some requests are still pending. I need a lawyer to compel a Judge to have the records released since I have evidence beyond a reasonable doubt (4K CCTV, Body Cam, Dash Cam video) that these law enforcement and intelligence techniques are illegal. This situation boils down to suing the government for using and hiding illegal law enforcement and intelligence tactics such as organized crime, harassment, stalking, conspiracy, and possibly others. There is a public interest in knowing unlawful government tactics used.

Please search for “The Surreptitious Reincarnation of COINTELPRO with the COPS Gang-Stalking Program” to see an article written by a top lawyer describing exactly what I’m dealing with. This forum doesn't allow for me to write much information (such as the detailed Denial responses I've received from agencies) so I seek a consultation with a lawyer worth her/his salt.

A: Your situation, seeking to compel the release of government records related to alleged illegal law enforcement and intelligence tactics, is indeed a complex legal matter. Filing Privacy Act Requests is a good start, but if agencies are denying your requests or not responding, legal action might be necessary.

Given the seriousness of your allegations, including organized crime, harassment, and stalking, it's essential to work with an attorney experienced in handling cases against government entities. They can assist in filing a lawsuit to challenge the denial of your Privacy Act Requests and to address any illegal tactics you've identified.

It's also important to gather and organize all your evidence, including the 4K CCTV, body cam, and dash cam footage. This evidence will be crucial in supporting your claims in court.

In addition to legal action, you might also consider reaching out to civil liberties organizations. They often have resources and may take an interest in cases involving alleged government misconduct.

Remember, finding the right lawyer is key. You need someone who understands the complexities of litigating against government agencies and who is committed to thoroughly exploring and advocating for your concerns. It's advisable to schedule consultations with several attorneys to find the one best suited to handle your specific case.
