On March 14, 2024, the ACLU of Delaware filed an opening brief with the Superior Court of Delaware on behalf of The Delaware Call, an independent news media group that covers Delaware issues. The brief calls for state agencies to comply with the Delaware Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) and release public records relating to the Division of Delaware State Police of the Delaware Department of Safety and Homeland Security (DSP).
The brief was prepared with legal research support from the Public Justice Advocacy Clinic at George Washington University Law School. While the case amplifies community calls for accountability and transparency around law enforcement, it also highlights the broader issue of inappropriate applications of FOIA among governmental bodies in the state.
