Subject: Fw: OAG exempts from disclosure TX OAG Crim Prosecutions Div (CPD) attys' legal advice re: me to CPD staff
From current public-information requestor and former full-time daily-newspaper reporter John Kevin McMillan of Austin, Texas. Home phone: (512) 342-2295. Cell phone: (512) 993-7305.
May 3, 2020
Dear Highly-Esteemed Government Officials, Cultural Leaders, and Civic Leaders:
Below (immediately after next paragraph) is an exactly quoted excerpt from the May 1, 2020, Open Records ruling (further below) by the Attorney General of Texas in response to a February 17, 2020-dated e-mail public-information request (last item, below) that I wrote and sent to that state agency. That request from me was focused on myself only.
My Feb. 17-dated public-information request had specifically requested: "a copy of any and all written communications, including e-mail communications, that each refer at least once in any manner to myself, John Kevin McMillan of Austin, Texas, and that at any time since 9 a.m. January 5, 2015, were each written by, or received or sent or mailed or FAXed or forwarded by, any staff member or attorney or administrator in the Human Trafficking and Transnational/Organized Crime Section of the Office of the Attorney General of Texas state agency in Austin."
The Texas Attorney General on May 1, 2020, ruled in favor of the Austin-based "Criminal Prosecutions Division" of that state agency withholding from me cited legal documents referring to myself, John Kevin McMillan of Austin, that were each responsive to my February 17-dated public-information request:
"The OAG (Office of Attorney General of Texas) states the submitted information consists of communications between attorneys and staff of its Criminal Prosecutions Division that were made for the purpose of providing professional legal services to the OAG. Further, the OAG represents these communications were not intended to be disclosed and have not been disclosed to non-privileged parties. Upon review, we find the OAG has demonstrated the applicability of the attorney-client privilege to the information at issue. Thus, the OAG may withhold the submitted information under section 552.107(1) of the Government Code."
I would appreciate any reply note or suggestions or advice or friendly referral that any of you are willing to offer me on this.
Best Wishes,
John Kevin McMillan of Austin, Texas.

May 3, 2020
Dear Very Influential and Highly-Regarded Law Enforcement Officials for the Austin Police Department in Austin, Texas,
This Saturday, May 2, in my designated mailbox for my current apartment unit at Pebble Creek Apartments in north Austin, I received from U.S. Postal Service delivery a three-page May 1, 2020-dated official legal letter on official State of Texas stationery from the Texas Attorney General. The front of the envelope containing that letter was specifically addressed to myself, "John McMillan", at my cited current mailing address of "8805 North Plaza Dr., Apt. 2418, Austin, TX 78753".
The letter was in reference to my February 17, 2020-dated e-mail public-information request (final item, below) to the Attorney General of Texas that stated, and I quote: "This is a Texas Open Records request in which I seek to obtain from you a copy of any and all written communications, including e-mail communications, that each refer at least once in any manner to myself, John Kevin McMillan of Austin, Texas, and that at any time since 9 a.m. January 5, 2015, were each written by, or received or sent or mailed or FAXed or forwarded by, any staff member or attorney or administrator in the Human Trafficking and Transnational/Organized Crime Section of the Office of the Attorney General of Texas state agency in Austin."
The metered envelope containing the letter from the Attorney General that was in my mailbox today bore the name of Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton in the return address. The front of that envelope was stamped as metered-mail processed in the Attorney General's Office in Austin on May 1, 2020.
Although my own name was not cited anywhere in the enclosed three-page letter from the Attorney General's Office in Austin, the last line of that letter, a postscript message, referred to a carbon-copy of that letter having been mailed to the "Requestor w/o enclosures". That requestor is me---former Texas Department of Public Safety state law-enforcement agency full-time employee John Kevin McMillan of north Austin.
Below are exactly quoted portions of the cited legal letter from the Attorney General of Texas to which I have been provided with an unsigned carbon-copy by that state agency:
"Ken Paxton
"ATTORNEY GENERAL OF TEXAS
"Post Office Box 12548
"Austin, Texas 78711-2548
"(512) 463-2100
"www.texasattorneygeneral.gov

"Assistant Public Information Coordinator
"Office of the Attorney General
"P.O. Box 12548
"Austin, Texas 78711-2548
"OR2020-12447
"Dear Ms. Harden:
"You ask whether certain information is subject to required public disclosure under the Public Information Act (the "Act"), chapter 552 of the Government Code. Your request was assigned ID# 825659 (PIR# R003590).
"The Office of the Attorney General (the "OAG") received a request for specified communications pertaining to the requestor (John Kevin McMillan of north Austin) from a specified time period. The OAG states it will release most of the responsive information to the requestor with redactions allowed by law, including Open Records Decision No. 684 (2009).((footnote) 1). (Footnote) "1(:) Open Records Decision No. 684 is a previous determination to all governmental bodies authorizing them to withhold specific categories of information, including an e-mail address of a member of the public under section 552.137 of the Government Code, without the necessity of requesting an attorney general decision."
The OAG claims the submitted information is excepted from disclosure under section 552.107 of the Government Code. We have considered the claimed exception and reviewed the submitted representative sample of information.((footnote) 2).
(Footnote) "2(:)We assume the 'representative sample' of records submitted to this office is truly representative of the requested records as a whole. See Open Records Decision Nos. 499 (1988), 497 (1988). This open records letter does not reach, and therefore does not authorize the withholding of, any other requested records to the extent that those records contain substantially different types of information than that submitted to this office.
"Section 552.107(1) of the Government Code protects information coming within the attorney-client privilege. When asserting the attorney-client privilege, a governmental body has the burden of providing the necessary facts to demonstrate the elements of the privilege in order to withhold the information at issue....
"The OAG states the submitted information consists of communications between attorneys and staff of its Criminal Prosecutions Division that were made for the purpose of providing professional legal services to the OAG. Further, the OAG represents these communications were not intended to be disclosed and have not been disclosed to non-privileged parties. Upon review, we find the OAG has demonstrated the applicability of the attorney-client privilege to the information at issue. Thus, the OAG may withhold the submitted information under section 552.107(1) of the Government Code.
"This letter ruling is limited to the particular information at issue in this request and limited to the facts as presented to us; therefore, this ruling must not be relied upon as a previous determination regarding any other information or any other circumstances....
"Sincerely,
"Matthew Taylor
"Assistant Attorney General
"Open Records Division

Dear Public Information Coordinator Downey,
This is a Texas Open Records request in which I seek to obtain from you a copy of any and all written communications, including e-mail communications, that each refer at least once in any manner to myself, John Kevin McMillan of Austin, Texas, and that at any time since 9 a.m. January 5, 2015, were each written by, or received or sent or mailed or FAXed or forwarded by, any staff member or attorney or administrator in the Human Trafficking and Transnational/Organized Crime Section of the Office of the Attorney General of Texas state agency in Austin.
INCLUDED in the scope of this public-information request are any and all written communications that were authored by myself.
My legal name is "John Kevin McMillan". I was born on April 27, 1957, at Lincoln, Nebraska.
I have most recently resided in Austin, Texas, on a continuous and uninterrupted basis ever since mid-March 1997.
I have maintained the e-mail address of "mcmillanj@att.net" as my primary e-mail address throughout the more than five-year period applicable to this public-information request.
I have also maintained the same landline home phone number of (512) 342-2295 throughout the entire multi-year period applicable to this public-information request.
January 5, 2015, is the date when State Bar of Texas member attorney and political leader Ken Paxton first officially assumed office as Attorney General of Texas after winning a statewide election for that position.
The current official website for the Attorney General of Texas state agency states as follows:
"The Human Trafficking and Transnational/Organized Crime Section is tasked with assisting local law enforcement and prosecutors in prosecuting human trafficking and related crimes, aids victims of human trafficking, and develops initiatives to improve coordination between state and local law enforcement agencies. The Human Trafficking and Transnational/Organized Crime Section provides training to law enforcement, prosecution, and non-governmental entities on human trafficking through outreach activities."
The current official website for the Attorney General of Texas also states:
"His (Ken Paxton's) first major initiative as attorney general was the formation of a special unit dedicated to combating human trafficking in Texas. During its first year of existence, the Human Trafficking and Transnational Organized Crime section helped arrest the chief executive officer of Backpage.com and coordinated to facilitate the permanent shut down of Backpage.com, the largest online sex-trafficking marketplace in the United States."

This public-information request from myself was prompted in part by recent very polite e-mail correspondence of mine with your state agency's Human Trafficking section.
That correspondence included a February 2, 2020-dated e-mail letter of inquiry (below, last item) that I wrote and sent to your state agency's Human Trafficking and Transnational/Organized Crime section. As of today, I have not yet received a reply letter or phone call from any staff member or official or investigator of that particular section of your very influential state agency.
Directly below is a February 16, 2020, e-mail letter from myself that I carbon-copied to your state agency's Human Trafficking section. That letter of mine was primarily addressed to two police officers of the Austin Police Department Nuisance Abatement Unit in this state-capital city for Texas:

Dear Austin Police Department (APD) Nuisance Abatement Unit Sergeant Micah Roberts and APD Nuisance Abatement Unit Detective Brian Robinson,
I have not received any reply letter so far from the Attorney General of Texas on a Feb. 2, 2020, e-mail letter (below) that I wrote and sent to that law-enforcement-minded State of Texas agency which refers to some of the criminal-law issues your own APD unit also investigates and has jurisdiction over.
Would either of you two very influential Austin Police Department officers with the APD Nuisance Abatement Unit please let me know in writing whether your APD unit has ever identified or investigated any case of alleged possible or suspected human trafficking anywhere in Austin, Texas, in which a cited apparent victim of human trafficking was subjected to allegedly illegal sexual contact with themselves in a context in which they were either held unconscious or were otherwise unconscious throughout the entire period of, or during much of, that allegedly illegal sexual contact?
Thank you in advance for your helpful reply letter to me on this.
Sincerely and Best Wishes,
John Kevin McMillan, an official rent-paying tenant living alone in an always-bolt-locked and always-fully-secured efficiency apartment unit at a very large apartment complex in north Austin.My home phone: (512) 342-2295.

Subject: 2-2-20 question for your TX OAG Human Trafficking and Organized Crime Section
February 2, 2020
Dear Officials of the Human Trafficking and Transnational/Organized Crime (HTTOC) Section of the Office of the Attorney General of Texas state agency in Austin,
I read online this morning in my personal computer system inside my current solo-occupancy efficiency rental-apartment unit in north Austin that in 2016, Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton reportedly established your "Human Trafficking and Transnational/Organized Crime Section" (HTTOC) in the Office of the Attorney General state agency in Austin. I also read online today that the office phone number for your section is: (512) 463-1646, and your e-mail address is "humantrafficking@oag.texas.gov".
I would appreciate obtaining from you factual information about whether your HTTOC section in Austin has ever identified or investigated any case of alleged possible or suspected human trafficking anywhere in Texas in which a cited apparent victim of human trafficking was subjected to alleged sexual contact with themselves in a context in which they were either held unconscious or were otherwise unconscious throughout the entire period of, or during much of, that alleged sexual contact.
If so, does your State of Texas agency in Austin have the legal authority to also then directly file criminal charges here in Austin in an alleged human-trafficking case of that type? Also, are there any circumstances in which you would choose to instead rely on a local law-enforcement agency and local prosecuting attorney to actually press charges in a crime case of that type?
Thank you in advance for your very helpful reply letter to me on this.
I hope to hear from you soon.
Sincerely and Best Wishes,
John Kevin McMillan, longstanding criminal-law complainant in Austin Police Department Sex Crimes Case 16-1340923, an alleged continuous-and-still-continuing-daily-and-year-round-and-multi-year-sex-crimes case for which the Austin Police Department Sex Crimes Unit has politely accepted thousands of photo images from me that I obtained in 2019 from two respective infrared motion-sensitive hunter's cameras I currently own that I have placed inside my bedroom of my current bolt-locked and fully-secured solo-occupancy apartment unit exclusively for surveillance purposes during my sleeping hours as I lie ALONE, asleep and unconscious and probably also snoring, on my own bed.
