Dear Sean Dunagan:
This is a third interim response to your FOIA request dated September 21, 2018, for all correspondence addressed to or received by Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein, between May 8, 2017 and May 22, 2017. This response is made on behalf of the Office of the Deputy Attorney General (ODAG).
On September 30, 2019 and November 25, 2019, we provided you with interim responses to your request. We have now completed processing of an additional 382 pages containing records responsive to your request. I have determined that all of these 382 pages are appropriate for release with excisions made pursuant to Exemptions 5 and 6 of the FOIA, 5 U.S.C. § 552(b)(5) and (b)(6), and copies are enclosed. Exemption 5 pertains to certain inter- and intra-agency communications protected by the attorney work-product, deliberative process, and presidential communications privileges. Exemption 6 pertains to information the release of which would constitute a clearly unwarranted invasion of personal privacy.
For your information, Congress excluded three discrete categories of law enforcement and national security records from the requirements of the FOIA. See 5 U.S.C. § 552(c) (2018). This response is limited to those records that are subject to the requirements of the FOIA. This is a standard notification that is given to all our requesters and should not be taken as an indication that excluded records do, or do not, exist.

If you have any questions regarding this response, please contact Jeremy Simon, Assistant United States Attorney for the District of Columbia, at 202-252-2528.
Sincerely,
Jonathan Breyan Senior Supervisory Attorney for Vanessa R. Brinkmann Senior Counsel

I know wtth all that's golng on this fs probably not that major but I want to make sure you guys have a heads up on this. We got word yesterday that Senator Durbin will be visiting CPDs new district-based Intel rooms and sending a letter to AG Sessions asking for support for Chicago. (Our new predtctive policing strategy which is controlled by these rooms is responsible so far for all the shooting reductions in our most violent districts.
We told the Senator's staff that DOJ (Kristen's team) actually paid for the initial rolfout of this strategy and district intel rooms and confirmed that AG Sessions and DAG Rosenstein had met the Superintendent and CPD has a good relationship with DOJ and our federal partners. We also told them that DOJ was sending an ATF team by next month along with a NIBIN van.
We ended up getting the revised letter (attached) and I just wanted to make sure the appropriate people in your shop knew this was coming.
Following the visit, Sen Durbin is holding a 10am CST press conference. Below i:s the media advisory we got from his staff.
Advisory text: U.S. Senator Dick Durbin will visit the Chicago Police Department's 7th District

Headquarters to meet with Commander Kenneth Johnson and take a tirsthand look at the district's Strategic Decision Support Center (SDSC), a high-tech intelligence center where crime data, surveillance and gunshot detection information is analyzed in partnership with the University of Chicago Crime Lab to better target policing resources.
Following the meeting and tour, Durbin will hold a brief news conference to discuss a letter he'll be sending to U.S. Attorney General Jeff Sessions asking for Department of Justice support for a number of gun violence prevention initiatives, including the operation of SDSCs and improved access to the National Integrated Ballistic Information Network (NIBIN) system to help identify suspects in unsolved shootings. Durbin will also discuss the bipartisan Stop Illegal Trafficking in Firearms Act, which was introduced last week and would help stem the tide of illegal guns being trafficked into Chicago.

May 22, 2017
The Honorable Jeff Sessions Attorney General U.S. Department of Justice Washington, DC 20530
Dear Attorney General Sessions:
I write to urge you to increase the Department of Justice’s support for gun violence prevention efforts in Chicago. Specifically, I request that the Justice Department expand the ability for Chicago-area law enforcement to make use of four resources that can significantly reduce gun violence: Strategic Decision Support Centers (SDSCs), the National Integrated Ballistic Information Network (NIBIN),federal gun trafficking investigations and prosecutions, and the Bulletproof Vest Partnership (BVP). Prompt support from the Justice Department for these initiatives can save lives in Chicago as we approach the summer months when shootings typically increase.
Please provide answers to the following questions about the Department’s efforts in each of these areas. I request that you provide these answers no later than June 2, 2017.
Strategic Decision Support Centers: Two of the Chicago police districts with the highest number of shooting incidents in 2016, Englewood and Garfield Park, saw dramatic decreases in shootings in early 2017 after the districts set up SDSCs where University of Chicago Crime Lab analysts assisted officers in analyzing surveillance and gunshot detection information to better target policing resources. I am confident that as SDSCs are established with full-time analysts in more police districts, shootings will be reduced and lives can be saved.
1. Is the Department of Justice coordinating with the Chicago Police Department (CPD) and the University of Chicago Crime Lab to help enhance the operation of SDSCs?
2. What federal resources can you immediately provide to the CPD and the Crime Lab to help support SDSCs as we head into the summer months?
National Integrated Ballistic Information Network: When the only evidence left at the scene of a shooting is ammunition casings, the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives’ NIBIN system can help law enforcement match casings to particular crime guns and develop investigative leads to catch shooters. It is critical that the Justice Department improve the utilization of NIBIN to help identify suspects in unsolved Chicago shootings.
3. Will ATF add CPD to the list of 24 agencies that are currently allowed to utilize the NIBIN National Correlation and Training Center in Huntsville, Alabama, which provides correlation review services to help quickly process and match casing evidence?
Document ID: 0.7.22218.38510-000002 20190702-0001335 Obtained by Judicial Watch, Inc. via FOIA
4. How will the Department utilize the new NIBIN mobile laboratory van to assist efforts in the Chicagoland area?
5. What other ways can the Department help increase the use of NIBIN in Chicago?
Investigating and prosecuting gun trafficking networks: It is well known that a significant percentage of crime guns recovered in Chicago were trafficked into the city from other states. I am concerned about absencethe of federal laws specifically prohibiting gun trafficking and straw purchasing, and I am a cosponsor of bipartisan legislation, the Stop Illegal Trafficking in Firearms Act, that would close these gaps in our federal laws and encourage increased federal investigation and prosecution of gun trafficking networks.
6. Will the Justice Department commit to support this legislation in order to help reduce the pipeline of illicit guns into Chicago?
7. Is the Justice Department working to federally prosecute those who sell or supply guns to others knowing or having reasonable cause to believe that the guns will be used to commit a crime of violence? Please explain your answer.
Bulletproof Vest Partnership: I intend to introduce legislation to Justiceexpand Department’s the Bulletproof Vest Partnership (BVP) to help defray the costs of vests that protect police officers in Chicago and elsewhere against shootings. At current funding levels the BVP is not able to provide significant assistance to largerlice departmentspo like Chicago’s.I intend to push for increased appropriations for the BVP and to prioritize those additional BVP resources for law enforcement agencies that have had officers shot in the line of duty in the current or previous year.
8. Will the Department commit to work with me in this effort?
Thank you for your prompt attention to these requests. I sincerely hope we can work together constructively in these areas to reduce the scourge of gun violence in Chicago and across our nation.
Sincerely,

Your remarks last night were 1ight on the mark: moving and inspirational and funny all at the same time. You are a true patriot and hero.

HEADLINE: U.S. News: In Chicago, Police Go High Tech Program uses software and other tools to try to stop crimes before they happen
BYLINE: By Shibani Mahtani
BODY:
CHICAGO In a stuffy room crammed with computer screens, a group of police officers monitored hightech tools that could hold the key to calming surging crime in this city's most violent neighborhoods.
On one screen, they watched a live feed from a surveillance camera of a drug deal happening on a nearby street corner. "We're building a case," one officer said.
With a few clicks, they can pull up mug shots of known gang members to try to identify the dealers, or run a check on the license plates from nearby cars.
Maps on the adjacent screen track shots fired in real time, bypassing 911. On another screen, colorcoded squares mark locations where a computer algorithm has predicted a homicide, shooting or robbery might happen next.
"This is our new onestop shop," said Chicago Police Deputy Chief Jonathan Lewin, who heads the department's technology solutions. "We have never tracked this information with this specific granularity."

The Chicago Police Department hopes its new Strategic Decision Support Centers modeled on efforts in Los Angeles and New York that have curbed crime in recent years can help stem the surge of violence that has brought national attention to the city.
After Chicago recorded 762 homicides and over 4,000 shootings last year, President Donald Trump threatened to "send in the Feds" if the city was unable to quell the bloodshed.
The center in Englewood, on the city's South Side, is one of six that have been set up so far this year in the city's most violent neighborhoods under a new $6.8million program.
Early results show promise. In Englewood and Harrison, on the West Side the two districts responsible for over a third of 2016's violence shootings have fallen by 30% and 39%, respectively. Citywide, the drop is 15%, even in the face of a recent surge in shootings by gangs using highpowered weapons that can penetrate police armor.
There is no data yet on whether the technology has helped the clearance rate. But police point to success stories. In one case, a sergeant monitoring a surveillance camera saw a man grabbing an object in the front waistband of his pants. Correctly guessing that it was a gun, he instructed officers in the area to stop and search the man, who was out on parole and was arrested on a gun charge.
Chicago police worked with the Los Angeles Police Department, which has been experimenting with an algorithm to forecast crime since late 2011. Their software, PredPol, pulls historic crime data to predict where something might happen next.
Chicago is using a similar predictive tool, HunchLab, among others, to build out the Strategic Decision Support Centers. Every officer in the district has to spend time at the center, says Kevin Johnson, commander of the Englewood district, so they can understand how the technology works.
Chicago has also invested heavily in ShotSpotter, which detects gunshots as they happen and feeds that information into the police department's technology platform. ShotSpotter, which is used by law enforcement in over 90 cities across the world including New York, Minneapolis and Miami, allows police to respond immediately to a shooting and know the exact location, rather than waiting for a 911 call.
The New York City Police Department, which is rolling out the technology across all five boroughs, says ShotSpotter helped police recover 57 guns and make 55 arrests in 2016.
"We're still seeing many shotsfired incidents, as they go unreported to police, but ShotSpotter alerts us to them," said Jessica Tisch, the NYPD's deputy commissioner of information technology.
Police in Minneapolis say ShotSpotter, which covers about 4 miles of the city, has helped them recover eight times more casings since the technology was rolled out in early 2008.
In Chicago, the centers are helping police get illegal guns off the streets. "We are responding better to crime and are more visible in these areas," said Englewood's Commander Johnson. "Citizens are telling us they want us there, they are telling us to help in these problem areas."

Lean Too Heavily
On Data, Critics Say
Chicago's new hightech program, which uses surveillance, data and software to try to predict where crimes will occur, has met with skepticism among some academics. They note that the idea of predicting where crime will happen isn't all that different from focusing on hot spots where crimes have happened before.
"The evidence for predictive policing is not very strong yet," said David Weisburd, a leading criminologist and professor at George Mason University who developed the hotspot theory in the mid1990s.
Civilliberties advocates worry about police following algorithms to target people for arrest or questioning. "People should be concerned that they will be stopped because the computer told the police to stop them," said Matt Topic, a lawyer with Loevy & Loevy who has sued the Chicago Police Department over civilrights violations.
Critics say that Chicago police are leaning heavily on data because they are unable to get cooperation from the community in identifying and solving crimes. Earlier this year, a Justice Department probe found that the police had a history of using excessive force. The percentage of homicides solved last year was 29%, less than half the national average in large part because too few witnesses are coming forward.
Chicago police official say the tools will make officers more present on the worst blocks and therefore bolster public trust.
"Officers are not just riding along and looking for things now," said Kevin Johnson, commander of the Englewood district. "They are targeting specific areas and seeing specific results; it affects how they see themselves and their role."

Qt. 205.90 May 10, 2017 MEMORANDUM FOR ALL FEDERAL PROSECUTORS FROM: THE ATTORNEY GENERAL ., SUBJECT: Department Charging and Sentencing Policy This memorandum establishes charging and sentencing policy for the Department of Justice. Our responsibility is to fulfill our role in a way that accords with the law, advances public safety, and promotes respect for our legal system. It is of the utmost importance to enforce the law fairly and consistently. Charging and sentencing recommendations are crucial responsibilities for any federal prosecutor. The directives I am setting forth below are s imple but important. They place great confidence in our prosecutors and supervisors to apply them in a thoughtful and disciplined manner , with the goal of achieving just and consistent results in federal cases. First, it is a core principle that prosecutors should charge and pursue the most serious, readily provable offense. This policy affirms our responsibility to enforce the law , is moral and just, and produces consistency. This policy fully utilizes the tools Congress has given us. By definition, the most serious offenses are those that carry the most substantial guide lines sentence, including mandatory minimum sentences. There will be circumstances in which good judgment would lead a prosecutor to conclude that a strict application of the above charging policy is not warranted. In that case, prosecutors should carefully consider whether an except ion may be justified. Consistent with longstanding Department of Justice policy, any decision to vary from the policy must be approved by a United States Attorney or Assistant Attorney General , or a supervisor designated by the United States Attorney or Assistant Attorney General, and the reasons must be documented in the file. Second, prosecutors must disclose to the sentencing court all facts that imp act the sentencing guidelines or mandatory minimum sentences, and should in all cases seek a reasonable sentence under the factors in 18 U.S.C. § 3553. In most cases, recommending a sentence within the advisory guideline range will be appropriate. Recommendations for sentencing departures or variances require supervisory approval, and the reasoning must be documented in the file.

I have directed the Deputy Attorney General to oversee implementation of this policy and to issue any clarification and guidance he deems appropriate for its just and consistent application. Working with integrity and professionalism, attorneys who implement this policy will meet the high standards required of the Department of Justice for charging and sentencing . 1 Previous policies include: Department Policy on Charging Mandatory Minimum Sentences and Recidivist Enhancements in Certain Drug Cases (August 12, 2013); and Guidance Regarding§ 851 Enhancements in Plea Negotiations (September 24, 2014).
