Did you do a FOI request? If you have a filed case, you can just subpoena.

My own experience is only in dealing with the LAPD. Your local department may be much more accommodating, and more easily bowled over. Even with an active case, I have filed a Freedom of Information Act request with the LAPD and gotten nowhere. Subpoena got me nowhere. Finally, a motion under Cal. Civ. Proc. Code 1987.1 requesting monetary sanctions resulted in a contrite phone call from a city attorney. Follow Mr. Selik's advice, but just know that you may need to bring a motion, that is if you have an active case. If you do not have an active case, California's Freedom of Information Act gives you a statutory cause of action against the local government agency to enforce its provisions.
