New Jersey Rejects Request For Dolphin Necropsy Results, Cites "Medical Privacy"
v3rgEz writes: When a dolphin died in New Jersey's South River last year, Carly Sitrin wanted to know what killed it. So she filed a public record request to the NJ Department of Agriculture in order to get the necropsy results. The DOA finally responded last week with the weird decision to deny the release of the record on grounds of medical privacy. The response reads in part: "We are in receipt of your request for information (#W101407) under the auspices of the State’sOpen Public Records Act (O.P.R.A.). Specifically, you requested any and all reports associated with the necropsy of the dolphin thatstrayed into the South River on August 5, 2015 in Middlesex County, New Jersey. This requestis denied as it would release information deemed confidential under O.P.R.A., specificallyinformation related to a medical diagnosis or evaluation. (E.O. 26, McGreevey)"Read more of this story at Slashdot.
