Subject: 2-17-21 PIR re: APD Internal Affairs or Special Investigations notes re: Sgt. Benningfield or Lt. Curtis and me
From: John Kevin McMillan, public-information requestor. My solo-occupancy efficiency-apartment-unit rental-home address ever since June 21, 2019: Pebble Creek Apartments (a Belco Equities-affiliated, large gated-community complex), 8805 North Plaza Drive, Building 17, Apt. 2418, Austin, TX 78753. Home phone: (512) 342-2295. Cell phone: (512) 993-7305.
February 17, 2021
A respectful FYI to each of you on the following public-information request I submitted online tonight at 10:37 p.m. this Wednesday, February 17, 2021, to the Austin Police Department at their official City Government of Austin website:
"I am seeking a copy of any and all records of or reports about any interviews of or findings about Lt. Gena Curtis or APD Sex Crimes Unit Sergeant Sandra Benningfield that referred at least once in any manner to myself, John Kevin McMillan of Austin, and that, in each such case, were conducted at any time since September 1, 2015, by the APD Internal Affairs Unit or the APD Special Investigations Unit.
"My legal name is John Kevin McMillan. My date of birth is April 27, 1957. I was born at Lincoln, Nebraska.
"On February 17, 2020, I received a very unexpected e-mail rejection letter from Lt. Curtis, the immediate supervisor of Sgt. Benningfield, in which Lt. Curtis forbade me in writing from ever again directly contacting herself:
"'Curtis, Gena <gena.curtis@austintexas.gov>
"'To:
"'John McMillan
"'Cc:
"'King, Michael
,
"'Larroque, Lelan
"'Mon, Feb 17, 2020 at 9:40 AM
"'Good morning,
"'In the future if you need to connect with someone at the Austin Police Department please feel free to reach out to either Officer Larroque or Sgt. Mike King; both are copied on this email. Please have no further contact with me, Lt. Gena Curtis. Have a great day!
"'Lt. Gena Curtis #2170
"'Investigations 2
"'(Sex Crimes, Domestic Violence & C.R.A.S.H. Units)
"'Austin Police Department
"'P.O. Box 689001
"'Austin, Texas 78768-9001
"'(512) 974-5570"'
________
"The APD Sex Crimes Unit under the leadership of Sgt. Benningfield and Lt. Curtis has never at any time authorized any new rape-evidence forensic medical exam on me that I repeatedly requested from APD's Sex Crimes Unit on numerous occasions over a multi-year period.
"Also, the APD Sex Crimes Unit has never requested and obtained full 190-day maximum possible retroactive processing of either of the two 2011 forensic rape-evidence kits from me that APD has in its possession for APD Sex Crimes Case 11-1180447 (an April 28, 2011, forensic DNA-swabs rape-evidence medical exam on me) and APD Sex Crimes Case 11-3550615 (a December 22, 2011, forensic DNA-swabs rape-evidence medical exam on me).
"I have repeatedly informed the APD Sex Crimes Unit and other APD units over a multi-year period that I have been and continue to be victimized on a daily and year-round and multi-year basis by alleged anal-rape crimes and alleged oral-rape crimes as well as other personal-injury crimes and home-invasion-crimes and trespassing crimes and harassment crimes during my sleeping hours as I lie alone on my own bed, asleep and unconscious and probably snoring, inside my bolt-locked rental-housing unit in north Austin. I always sleep alone on my bed, and I have been completely celibate ever since and including the day I moved to north Austin in August 2001.
"I have lived alone inside a double-bolt-locked efficiency apartment unit at Pebble Creek Apartments, 8805 North Plaza Drive, ever since June 21, 2019."
