I received a reply e-mail letter today from the Texas Health and Human Services Commission Civil Rights Office here in Austin, advising me in writing that "if you wish to file a complaint against APD, you may contact the U.S. Department of Justice, Civil Rights Division at: U.S. Department of Justice(,) Civil Rights Division(,) 950 Pennsylvania Avenue, N.W.(,) Office of the Assistant Attorney General, Main(,) Washington, D.C. 20530".
Do any of you or the media company or organization you're affiliated with currently believe that I should myself file a legal complaint against the Austin Police Department through the U.S. Department of Justice Civil Rights Division?
Thank you in advance for your helpful reply note to me on this.
Sincerely and Best Wishes,
John Kevin McMillan, a self-identified continuous-and-continuing-home-invasion-crimes-related personal-injury-crimes-and-sex-crimes victim on a daily and year-round basis during my sleeping hours as I lie ALONE unconscious on my own bed inside my current solo-occupancy always-bolt-locked and always-fully-locked efficiency apartment unit in north Austin. I am also the longstanding complainant in the still-unsolved APD Case 16-1340923.

From: John Kevin McMillan, public-information requestor and longstanding criminal-law complainant with the Austin Police Department.
(APD Case 16-1340923 is the APD-designated crime case for which APD's Sex Crimes Unit from early July 2019 through early January 2020 accepted eight separate flashdrives of crime-evidence from myself that contained thousands of infrared motion-sensitive photos of alleged home-invasion-crimes perpetrators and alleged assault-by-physical-contact perpetrators and alleged sex crimes perpetrators and alleged personal-injury-crimes perpetrators, each of them allegedly victimizing me during my sleeping hours as I lay alone, asleep and unconscious and probably also snoring, on a bed I own inside my bedroom of my current bolt-locked and solo-occupancy (myself, only) efficiency rental-apartment unit, Apartment 2418 in Building 17 at Pebble Creek Apartments. I am the only official tenant and only management-team-approved occupant inside my current rental-housing unit, I am a longtime-celibate-by-choice (including ever since I moved to the northern section of Austin in August 2001), single-by-choice, non-sadomasochistic and anti-S&M, non-stalking and anti-stalking-minded, permanently-drinking-alcohol-free (ever since 1990, and never previously addicted), permanently marijuana-free (ever since 1984, and never previously addicted), lifelong-illicit-drug-free in regard to any and all illicit drugs other than marijuana, lifelong-tobacco-free, facially-cleanshaven (no beard, no mustache, no goatee), lifelong-tattoo-less and anti-tattoo-minded, consistently clean-talking (no profanity verbalized by me in my everyday conversations with others), platonicly polite, dependably civil and law-abiding (I do not have any criminal-conviction record, I might add) and honest, lawfully and politely non-Christian and implicitly-deistic, gainfully employed Anglo gentleman. I always sleep alone on my bed, and I never allow anyone to enter my always-bolt-locked and fully-secured current apartment unit at nighttime, with the sole exception of numerous respective on-duty Austin Police Department officers in connection with service-call visits they made to my current unit over a multi-month period in 2019 and 2020. Most recently, APD Officer Brenda Glasgow, Badge Number 7421, left my current rental-apartment unit at Pebble Creek Apartments at roughly 12:50 a.m. Tuesday, February 25, 2020, after briefly and politely visiting my unit for APD Case 200560043.
Pebble Creek Apartments are located in north Austin at 8805 North Plaza Drive. I currently reside in the District 4 section of Austin, with the highly-esteemed Austin City Council Member Greg Casar, whom I have never met in person, being my official representative on the Austin City Council.)
Home address: Pebble Creek Apartments, 8805 North Plaza Drive, Apt. 2418 (a second-floor, eastward-facing unit situated in Building 17, with Building 17 being situated in the far northeastern corner of this large and gated-community complex).

A respectful FYI to each of you on the following very helpful and much-appreciated reply letter (last item, below) I received today from the Attorney General of Texas in Austin that directly refers to myself in connection with cited factual evidence, including crime-evidence photos, currently on file with that state agency's Human Trafficking and Transnational/Organized Crime Section.
That reply letter is in direct response to the following February 18, 2020-dated online public-information request (directly below) that I wrote and submitted online to that State of Texas agency at their official website.
Please note (last item, below) that the e-mailed reply letter to me today from the Attorney General also cites a current written request within that agency that seeks official permission from an Open Records Division attorney of that state agency to withhold from myself and the general public certain items that are also responsive to this public-information request of mine.
The cited online public-information request from me that I submitted online on the afternoon of February 18, 2020, at the official Attorney General of Texas website stated that I sought from that state agency, and I am quoting verbatim from that request:
"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".

Dear Mr. McMillan:
This e-mail is in response to your public information request to the Office of the Attorney General (“OAG”), received by the OAG on February 18, 2020.
The OAG has reviewed its files and has located the attached documents that are responsive to your request. Although the Public Information Act allows a governmental body to charge for copying documents, the attached documents are being provided to you at no charge.
Please note the OAG has redacted personal e-mail addresses from the attached documents pursuant to section 552.137 of the Government Code and the previous determination issued by the Open Records Division. See Open Records Decision No. 684 (2009) (governmental bodies may withhold certain information without necessity of requesting decision from Open Records Division).
Finally, the OAG believes the remaining information is excepted from required public disclosure. Pursuant to section 552.301 of the Government Code, the OAG has requested a ruling from the Open Records Division. A copy of our brief to the Open Records Division is attached.
Sincerely,
Marisol Bernal-Leon
Public Information Coordinator’s Office
Office of the Attorney General
