What Do They Know and When Did They Know It:Obtaining and Understanding Your F.B.I. File
Want to discover what the FBI has on file about you? You might think they have nothing. Then again, you could be wrong.
In this report, you will discover not only how to obtain your files and where to send for them, you'll also discover some of the codes and acronyms used in FBI files. Without these codes and acronyms, deciphering your FBI files could prove difficult, if not impossible. IMPORTANT: Keep this information, as you will need it when you receive your files from the FBI. In addition, there is an explanation of the Freedom of Information and Privacy Act (FOIPA), how the FBI deals with FOIPA requests, and under what circumstances the FBI can refuse to release certain information to you. If you should need to send an appeal letter, an explanation of how to proceed is provided to you for that purpose.But first, before we tackle how to request your files, there is a section on how the FBI organizes and maintains their files. There is also discussion on the types of information found in their filing system as well as the classification codes the FBI uses.You'll note that the FBI already has established a presence on the World Wide Web, and they have already posted some documents there for your reading pleasure, including information on the UFO crash in Roswell, New Mexico over 50 years ago as well as information on gangsters and the like. It makes for very interesting reading.The main FBI site promises to publish other documents in their electronic reading room in the future. We may assume that, perhaps, some day we will be able to access our own files electronically.Finally, in keeping with the current electronic nature of the Internet and gaining information off the 'Net, there is a listing of not only the FBI Field Offices which have homepages on the Web, but also a section on other FBI-related Web sites you may be interested in exploring.
FBI FILES - HOW THEY'RE ORGANIZED
In the central records system used by the FBI, records are classified by 210 numbers which designate the type of file and what it relates to.--General Index is the alphabetical index of the main files.--The Central Records Filing Systems are divided into 210 different numbers which indicate each of the FBI's investigative and administrative tasks.--Main files usually contain documents which are collected during the course of an investigation. Subfiles are sections of the main files. They can be lettered or numbered, and usually contain information newspaper clipping, physical surveillance information, wiretaps and the like.--There are four types of file classifications: administrative, applicant, investigative and personnel--Control files are those separate files which relate to a specific matter and is used as an administrative means of managing, or "controlling" a certain program or investigative matter. However, not every program or investigative matter gets a "control file." This is decided on a discretionary basis by those in charge. Apparently, the FBI is less than forthcoming about control files.--Three sets of numbers make up the FBI file number:FOR EXAMPLE:12-34567-890--The first number is the classification number and tells what type of investigation the document relates to.THE REST IS MISSING OBVIOSLY TO ORDER mailto:staff@webisers.com Heres some free stuff http://www.policeguide.com/cgi-bin/criminal-search online Files avalible from the internet once you order FBI Files from Webisers.com We have many more software programs if you want our custom
