Dear Travis County District Attorney's Office Open Records Requests Administrator in Austin, Texas,

This is a Texas Open Records request in which I seek to obtain from you a copy of any and all e-mail communications that respective high-ranking officials Don Clemmer, Gregg Cox, Dayna Blazey, Mike Lummus, Beverly Matthews, and Dexter Gilford of your Travis County District Attorney's Office in Austin, Texas, have each written or received at any time since January 3, 2017, and that, in each and every such case, referred at least once in any manner to myself, John Kevin McMillan of northwest Austin.

EXCLUDED from the scope of this public-information request are any and all written communications that were exclusively and solely written by myself, John Kevin McMillan of northwest Austin.

I am a gainfully-employed, permanently-drinking-alcohol-free, lifelong-tobacco-free, single adult Anglo male resident of the same county government precinct---precinct 3---in which Travis County Commissioner Gerald Daugherty resides. Mr. Daugherty, a Republican, reportedly is the primary county commissioner who officially represents me on the Travis County Commissioners Court.

On September 14, 2018, I received a surprising E-mail letter from Travis County Assistant County Attorney Ann-Marie Sheely. That letter directly stated to me in writing for the first time ever that County Commissioner Daugherty's office in recent years sought and obtained legal advice from attorneys of the Travis County Attorney's Office in regard to myself.

That disclosure to me was offered in the context of an official September 14, 2018, signed legal letter submitted by Ms. Sheely to the Attorney General of Texas on behalf of Commissioner Daugherty, a copy of which was provided to me by Ms. Sheely. Her legal letter sought official permission from that state agency for County Commissioner Daugherty to withhold from me records of those legal consultations his office had had with the county attorney's office in regard to myself.

On April 27, 2015, a birthday for me, I was interviewed in person at your Travis County District Attorney's Office by two DA's Office "Critical Incident Unit" investigators, Lt. Roger Dean and Sergeant Jose Ballesteros.

On September 26, 2014, I signed for and received inside the Balcones Post Office along Jollyville Road in northwest Austin a certified-delivery official September 23, 2014-dated, signed legal letter on official Travis County District Attorney's Office letterhead that was directly addressed to me.

That letter was written and signed by Travis County Assistant District Attorney Rob Drummond. That official DA's Office letter addressed to me directly cited "your complaint of December 18, 2013, regarding the conduct of the Austin Police Department."

That same certified-delivery legal letter to me from your DA's Office in Austin also stated, among other things, that "Our inquiry revealed that APD continues to maintain the evidence gathered on December 22, 2011. In addition, they have noted that the Travis County District Attorney's Office has requested the said evidence continue to be maintained. This resolves our inquiry. As we explained to you, the decision as to how to utilize investigative resources in a sexual assault allegation falls within the purview of the Austin Police Department. Therefore, we believe our involvement in this matter is concluded and our office will take no further action.
"Sincerely,
"Rob Drummond
"Assistant District Attorney
"Travis County".

My legal name is John Kevin McMillan. I was born on April 27, 1957, at Lincoln, Nebraska.

I have resided in Austin proper on a continuous and uninterrupted basis ever since mid-March 1997.

I am a former full-time employee here in Austin of the "Texas Department of Public Safety" state law-enforcement agency. I am also a former full-time employee here in Austin for the "Texas Board of Pardons and Paroles" and the "Texas Department of Criminal Justice" state agencies, respectively.

I am also the founder and only current approved member of a new and non-Christian and implicitly-deistic "Honor Society" religion --- a religion publicized on local community-access television throughout the greater Austin area around the turn of the century. Several persons in the Austin area have told me they either dislike my religion intensely or do not regard it as comprising an actual or true religion.

That religion of mine is anti-drinking-alcohol and anti-tobacco and anti-marijuana, anti-medical-marijuana, anti-facial-hair-minded, anti-tattoos-minded, opposed to anonymous communications that are inflicted on someone against his wishes, opposed to deliberately fraudulent communications, anti-noise-pollution-minded, anti-thought-control-projects-minded, and anti-stalking, and also adamantly opposed to sexual assaults.

My religion, the "Progressive Prohibitionist Religion", has very stringent membership-eligibility guidelines.

During the time period applicable to this public information request, I myself resided as an official rent-paying tenant or official rent-paying occupant at the following apartment units:

---Village Oaks Apartments, 10926 Jollyville Road, Building 9, Apt. 902, Austin, Texas, 78759, the home address for me from late September 2015 until early September 2017.


---Village Oaks Apartments, 10926 Jollyville Road, Building 16, Apartment 1609, Austin, Texas, 78759, the home address for me ever since early September 2017, including at present.

I hope to hear from you soon in response to this public-information request from myself.


Please let me know as soon as possible if you sense that you might have to charge me more than $20 in administrative fees you expect to incur from processing this public-information request from myself.

Sincerely and Best Wishes,

John Kevin McMillan, a former resident of the Boston area of Massachusetts who is myself a certified direct descendant of the Rev. William Brewster---the great Puritan religious leader who served as Head Chaplain on the Mayflower and as an adviser to Plymouth Colony Governor William Bradford in what is now the U.S. Commonwealth or state of Massachusetts.

My current home address: Village Oaks Apts. (a NW Austin apartment complex reportedly owned by a highly-regarded for-profit corporation that's headquartered in Newton, Mass.), 10926 Jollyville Rd., Bldg. 16, Apt. 1609, Austin, Texas, 78759.
