Case Detail

FOIA Project Annotation: Resolving a case that began more than 15 years ago and involved two remands from the D.C. Circuit, Judge Reggie Walton has ruled that the DEA and the Marshals Service properly withheld records from prisoner Elwood Cooper concerning his prosecution and conviction in the Southern District of Florida on drug charges under several subparts of Exemption 7 (law enforcement records). Because of the length of time it took to resolve the case, a primary contention was whether Exemption 7 could be used as a substitute for the now-abandoned risk of circumvention prong previously recognized under Exemption 2 (internal practices and procedures). The ubiquitous use of the risk of circumvention prong previously recognized under Exemption 2 until the Supreme Court rejected its use in Milner v. Dept of Navy, 562 U.S. 562 (2011), is particularly stark in this case because all of the kinds of information the agencies had withheld clearly fell within the parameters of Exemption 7 and looking back there appears to be little reason for the agencies to have claimed Exemption 2 as well. But because they had, they were required to reassess that use, which resulted in them abandoning reliance on Exemption 2 altogether. Walton had no trouble finding that personally-identifying information in these law enforcement records, code numbers, and confidential sources easily qualified for protection under Exemption 7. Finding the personally-identifying information was protected under Exemption 7(C) (invasion of privacy concerning law enforcement records), Walton rejected Cooper's claim that the information pertained to government misconduct. Walton pointed out that "while the plaintiff alleges that he seeks the information to investigate potential prosecutorial impropriety, his bare and undeveloped allegations do not support a reasonable belief that the alleged misconduct might have occurred. Nor has the plaintiff adequately explained how the disclosure of the information would be probative of the prosecutor's alleged misconduct. After all, the plaintiff already knows the names of the government agents whom he accuses of conspiring to entrap him." Walton also approved the DEA's withholdings under Exemption 7(D) (confidential sources). He pointed out that the agency's "representations more than adequately establish that the source of the redacted information is protected by Exemption 7(D), as it is reasonable to infer that the information provided was in connection with the DEA's drug importation and distribution investigation of plaintiff." Walton upheld the agency's segregability claims as well with the exception of a single document which he found the agency had not adequately described.
Issues: Exemption 7(D) - Confidential sources, Exemption 7(C) - Invasion of privacy concerning law enforcement records
