Following the submission of Sunshine requests about the August 04th 2020 suicide of Catherine Daisy Coleman, the Association for the Advancement of Civil Liberties (AACL) has managed to obtain the criminal charges filed by the State of Missouri in the Circuit Court of Nodaway County for “endangering the welfare of a child in the second degree.” The AACL has also managed to obtain the contractual agreements concluded between the Missouri Department of Mental Health (MODMH) and Missouri Girls Town. As you maybe aware, Catherine Daisy Coleman was the victim of a sexual assault on (or around) January 08th 2012, which had been very highly publicized particularly in the State of Missouri. In the judgment of the AACL, the criminal charges filed by the State of Missouri on (or around) January 09th 2014 failed to seriously take into consideration the damage that had been inflicted on the physical and mental well-being of Catherine Daisy Coleman. <br><br>Michael A. Ayele (a.k.a) W is responsible for the publications of the Association for the Advancement of Civil Liberties (AACL). He was an employee of the Missouri Department of Mental Health (MODMH) Fulton State Hospital (FSH) in Calendar Year 2013. Via email, his former employers have refused to deny that Catherine Daisy Coleman was a patient of Missouri Girls Town following the January 08th 2012 sexual assault she was a victim of (only confirming that Missouri Girls Town is indeed a contractual partner of the MODMH). According to the MODMH, Missouri Girls Town is a “time-limited placement resource for children requiring active coordinated and professional intervention in a highly structured environment by virtue of a demonstrated inability to function in any less restrictive setting. Children requiring residential treatment services exhibit a severe mental illness and/or persistent mental disorder as diagnosed according to the DSM-IV. These children may be unable to function consistently in an open, public school setting, may present a chronic runaway risk, and may present a history of showing rage, including physical aggression toward self and others.”<br><br>Michael A. Ayele (a.k.a) W was very much concerned upon reading about the August 04th 2020 suicide of Catherine Daisy Coleman because he was a previous employee of the MODMH (FSH). As a former employee of the MODMH (FSH), it remains unclear to Michael A. Ayele (a.k.a) W whether or not his former employers acknowledge as a matter of reality the fact that sexual assault is a factor increasing the risk of suicide. It also remains unclear to Michael A. Ayele (a.k.a) W if the Personal Health Information (PHI) of Catherine Daisy Coleman reflected this risk. According to a January 30th 2018 report published by the National Council on Disability (NCD), [1] “affirmative and effective consent” is being taught to college/university students of the United States of America (U.S.A) during the course of their Freshmen year; [2] college/university students are informed about “healthy sexual relationships” during the course of their 1st year of post-secondary academic education; [3] twenty percent (20%) of women were sexually assaulted in a college/university setting by the time they had reached their Senior Year in Calendar Year 2005; [4] thirty two (32%) of women with a disability were sexually assaulted during Calendar Year 2014 and 2015 in a college/university setting; [5] sexual assault is a “deeply personal violation,” which leaves “physical and emotional impacts that change the lives of victims;” [7] sexual assault causes “long term physical, psychological and emotional effects, including depression, post-traumatic stress, thoughts of suicides and sleep disorders.” <br><br>Michael Ayele (a.k.a) W has used his advocacy skills to have his former employers as well as their contractual partners acknowledge the reality that sexual violence is a factor increasing the risk of suicide for the purpose of preventing in the future similar suicides such as the one committed by Catherine Daisy Coleman on (or around) August 04th 2020. Unfortunately, however, it remains unclear for Michael Ayele (a.k.a) W what the obligations of the MODMH pursuant to the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and the Health Insurance Portability &amp; Accountability Act (HIPAA) actually are. The MODMH were extremely vague to Sunshine requests submitted on the subject of [1] whether they have in the past disclosed the PHI of an individual in circumstances, where discrimination was at play (for the purpose of remedying the discrimination); [2] whether they were in the past required to disclose the PHI of an individual either to the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) and/or the courts (for the purpose of remedying the discrimination). As a matter of principle, Michael A. Ayele (a.k.a) W unequivocally condemns violence committed against women irrespective of their racial backgrounds, their sexual orientations, their national origins and their religious affiliations.

L. Jack Vasquez, Jr. District Director [email protected] Applicable Sections of the Freedom of Information Act, 5 U.S.C. § 552(b): Exemption(s) Used: (b)(7)(C), Exemption (b)(7)(C) to the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. § 552(b)(7)(C) (2016), as amended by the FOIA Improvement Act of 2016, Pub. L. No. 114-185, 130 Stat. 538, authorizes the Commission to withhold: records or information compiled for law enforcement purposes, but only to the extent that the production of such law enforcement records or information . . . (C) could reasonably be expected to constitute an unwarranted invasion of personal privacy . . . . The seventh exemption applies to civil and criminal investigations conducted by regulatory agencies. Abraham & Rose, P.L.C. v. United States, 138 F.3d 1075, 1083 (6th Cir. 1998). Release of statements and identities of witnesses and subjects of an investigation creates the potential for witness intimidation that could deter their cooperation. National Labor Relations Board v. Robbins Tire and Rubber Co., 437 U.S. 214, 239 (1978); Manna v. United States Dep’t. of Justice, 51 F.3d 1158,1164 (3d Cir. 1995). Disclosure of identities of employee-witnesses could cause "problems at their jobs and with their livelihoods." L&C Marine Transport, Ltd. v. United States, 740 F.2d 919, 923 (11th Cir. 1984). The Supreme Court has explained that only "[o]fficial information that sheds light on an agency's performance of its statutory duties" merits disclosure under FOIA, and noted that "disclosure of information about private citizens that is accumulated in various governmental files" would "reveal little or nothing about an agency's own conduct." United States Dep't of Justice v. Reporters Comm. for Freedom of the Press, 489 U.S. 749, 773 (1989). For the purposes of determining what constitutes an unwarranted invasion of personal privacy under exemption (b)(7)(C), the term “personal privacy” only encompasses individuals, and does not extend to the privacy interests of corporations. FCC v. AT&T Inc., 131 S.Ct. 1177, 1178 (2011).
