Description
Pursuant to the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA), I hereby request disclosure of the following: All documents, including but not limited to
cables, notes, memos, memoranda of conversation, letters, interviews, investigations, analyses, briefings and correspondence produced or
received by the State Department relating in whole or in part to the death of Argentine prosecutor Alberto Nisman, which was widely reported
by international media. [Gilbert, Jonathan and Simon Romero. Puzzling Death of a Prosecutor Grips Argentina. The New York Times. January
19, 2015. Available at: http://www.nytimes.com/2015/01/20/world/americas/alberto-nisman-found-dead-argentina-amia.html]. Please
omit from your search and review all copies of press and media reports as well as all State Department press statements and press releases. If
you regard any of these records as potentially exempt from the FOIAs disclosure requirements, I request that you nonetheless exercise your
discretion to disclose them. As the FOIA requires, please release all reasonably segregable nonexempt portions of responsive records. To
permit me to reach an intelligent and informed decision whether or not to file an administrative appeal of any denied material, please
describe any withheld records (or portions thereof) and explain the basis for your exemption claims. To expedite the release of the requested
records, please disclose them on an interim basis as they become available to you without waiting until all records have been processed.
Electronic communications are preferred whenever possible. If you have any questions regarding the identity of the records, their location,
the scope of the request or any other matters, please call me at 231-342-2114 or email me at mlasusa2000@yahoo.com.

University in U.S. foreign policy and national security and I have published various articles about my research in this subject area. I also cohost and co-produce the news podcast "Periphery," which is available for subscription through a number of services. For further details on my
