Thank you, Chris, for your very kind willingness to review several of the infrared hunter's camera photos obtained on my behalf in 2012 from inside my bolt-locked apartment unit. It is a top-floor, vaulted-ceiling apartment unit where I live alone, and I've been the only approved leasee and only approved tenant inside my apartment, ever since May 31, 2011, most recently.
My apartment unit features a very wide seven-foot-tall sliding glass door that leads directly into my private bedroom from a semi-public outdoor balcony that an intruder could very easily reach merely by climbing an outdoor flight of stairs at my apartment building (Building 3 at Wind River Crossing Apartments).
I have decided to send you 12 infrared photos, since I feel hopeful that from this greater variety of photos, at least one will "jump out" at you as being someone OTHER than myself. Since I never have any invited guest inside my apartment unit at any time between midnight until 8 a.m., this also means that the infrared hunter's-camera photo of someone other than myself is allegedly of an illegal intruder inside my bolt-locked apartment unit in Austin.
I need to mention to you in advance that the attached infrared photos do reveal some wholesome posters of mine in the background that were posted to my bedroom wall by myself. Those posters depict adult younger persons, most of them apparently talented athletes or entertainers and all of them wearing clothes as they posed before a camera. Among the featured younger men are actor Leonardo DiCaprio, actor or singer (I forget which) Jesse McCartney, actor Seth Cohen, actor (singer?) Zach Efron, pro football quarterback David Carr, actor Jimmy Dean of 1950s America, a male actor portraying Superman in a Hollywood movie (two posters), and then-Cleveland Browns quarterback Tim Couch. I have found those exuberant and gentlemanly posters to be inspirational, since I live alone and I enjoy the sense of cheerful and stylish camaraderie that those posters have conveyed for me. All of those posters are G-rated, I wish to emphasize. Two of the posters depict adult young ladies, each of whom is fully attired in the applicable poster scene.
Despite all this, several officials of the Austin Police Department and the City of Austin have stated in writing in 2012 that they regard those posters of mine inside my private bedroom of my bolt-locked apartment unit as being somehow scandalous and possibly lewd or obscene in nature, according to legal documents I obtained from the City of Austin through a Texas Open Records request I made this year.
That cited "position" by City of Austin officials is doubly ironic in a city where X-rated posters and R-rated posters as wall displays are very common. Also, I myself have never heard of the Austin Police Department publicly criticizing any other single adult resident of Austin for owning posters inside their private bedroom that APD regards as being scandalous or lewd or obscene.
In regard to the infrared photos, I would like to again point out that the cited dates and times are unreliable, since I had difficulty setting the date and time on my Wildview infrared hunter's camera that I purchased in February 2012 at an Academy store near my apartment complex in northwest Austin.
All of the infrared photos were taken in the time period since or including February 2012 (this year). February 2012 was when I purchased my first-ever infrared camera upon prior advice in person from the then-proprietor of one of my restaurant workplaces---a man named Jason Pastrano who is originally from San Antonio, from what he told me. I am very grateful to Jason for that life-saving advice he kindly offered me during a workshift of mine as a busboy at Outback Arboretum steakhouse. Outback Arboretum is a restaurant workplace of mine that's situated virtually "across the street" from the very large apartment complex (Wind River Crossing Apartments, owned by Westdale, a for-profit corporation headquartered in Dallas) where I live in Austin.
Chris, I look forward to receiving your opinion on whether ANY of the infrared photos I'm sending you tonight appears to you to be of someone OTHER than myself.
I should mention, by the way, that I myself am six-feet, two-and-one-half inches tall, I have broad shoulders, I am white and of English, Scottish, and German ancestries, I have no tattoos anywhere on my body, I have no facial hair on my face, and I weigh 220 pounds according to my bathroom scale. I do not have a heavily muscular build or massive physique.
With Friendly Best Wishes,

John, I will look at the photos for you and give you my honest opinion. I’ll also show it to the chief, but he doesn’t know what you look like.

Dear Chris,
Thank you for your prompt response on this. Since my own credibility with the City of El Campo is very important to me as a former resident and former reporter in your Texan city, I would like to respectfully request the opportunity to send you five examples of infrared hunter's camera photos obtained for me inside my bolt-locked apartment unit in 2012. (I purchased my first-ever infrared camera of any type in February 2012. This means that even though the cited dates and times are unreliable (I had difficulty with the date-setting and time-setting mechanism, I do have a receipt verifying the date in February 2012 when I purchased my first-ever infrared camera of any type.)
None of the photos I plan to send you would strike you as being "obscene" per se, and the ones I'm thinking of would primarily call your attention to the face and the body shape or body features of that individual who was "caught" by my infrared camera inside my bolt-locked apartment.
I am making this request of you as a courtesy to me. So far, the Austin Police Department has repeatedly stated to me in writing that ALL of the infrared photos taken on my behalf during my bedtime hours inside my bolt-locked apartment appeared to be of myself, and no one else. I very emphatically and respectfully and very strongly disagree with APD's contention on that, and I am convinced that if you would be willing to glance through the infrared photos I'd like to share with you, you might agree with me on this.
This is a matter very crucial to my own ability to enjoy the best possible medical health and a fully ambulatory and athletically active and creatively vital and disease-free lifespan without anyone subjecting me to any form of injury during my sleep, and without anyone interrupting my sleep on a repeated basis and disrupting my deep sleep or REM sleep, in particular, while subjecting me to repeated sleep deprivation and pain in my body and legs and hips whenever I fall asleep on my orthopedic bed inside my bolt-locked apartment. Those "rude awakenings" on my bed, with mysefl always sleeping alone on my bed, I might add, is occurring regardless of the time of day when I either nap for a few hours in the daytime or I sleep on my bed for an hour or longer at nighttime or in the early morning hours.
Thank you in advance, Chris, for very kindly authorizing me to send you five total attachments of infrared hunter's camera photos of alleged illegal intruders inside my apartment unit that were each taken on my behalf inside my bolt-locked apartment unit.
Best Wishes from a former reporter of yours at the "Leader-News,"
John Kevin McMillan,

John, I did not see your infrared pictures. Maybe I didn’t realize the e-mail had an attachment.

Dear El Campo Police Chief Stanphill,
Thank you for taking the time to write to me about this criminal-law case in which I am a law-abiding and consistently civil single adult male victim inside my bolt-locked apartment unit in Austin during periods in which I am sleeping and unconscious, and probably snoring as well.
I noticed that your reply letter (below) to me did not include a courtesy carbon-copy to the people-friendly and polite Chris Barbee, a former work supervisor of mine at the "El Campo Leader-News." Since I have sent several examples of infrared hunter's camera photos of possible alleged intruders to Chris Barbee at his new official E-mail address with the City of El Campo, I am very hopeful that Chris will be willing to share those infrared photos with you that I sent to him as attachments to an E-mail letter I sent to himself earlier this year.
Otherwise, since I value having the finest of credibility with the City of El Campo as a former resident of your city and former newspaper reporter in your city, I would welcome any invitation from you to send you three or four or more examples of infrared photos obtained from inside my apartment unit during my bedtime hours that definitely appear to be of an illegal alleged intruder inside my apartment unit.
Thank you again for your politely worded reply letter, and I hope to hear from you soon about this crime case.
Sincerely and Best Wishes,
John Kevin McMillan,
11411 Research Boulevard, Apt. 325, Austin, Texas, 78759.

John,
I am the Chief of Police in El Campo. Chris Barbee and I work together. He discussed your request for DNA evidence collection an analysis with me.
I’m sorry we will not be able to assist you with your request. We use the state lab for analysis for DNA evidence. We can only submit evidence and request analysis if we have an open criminal investigation. It appears your suspicion of criminal activity has or is occurring in Austin. ECPD has no jurisdiction in the matter.
Also some of the evidence collection you are requesting needs to be done by a doctor or properly trained person. ECPD would refer you to a medical doctor for examination and evidence collection.
I understand you have reported your suspicion to the Austin PD. I also understand you disagree with results of their investigation. With the limited knowledge I have of your suspicions, I have to agree with APD. It is highly unlikely you are being assaulted inside your locked apartment. I strongly suggest you discuss the matter with your medical doctor. I would think your medical doctor would be in a position to conduct an examination and give you professional advice. Hopefully the doctor’s advise will help you resolve the matter. If you do decide to go to a doctor for professional help, please keep an open mind to the doctor’s advice and other alternatives. To me it sounds like a doctor is in the best position to offer help.
Good luck and I hope you are able to resolve your concerns.
