What the Massachusetts Public Records Law Requires
Under the Massachusetts Public Records Law the agency must answer a request within 10 business days, and it may charge staff time after the first four hours for towns and two for the state, plus copying. The request goes to the agency that holds the report, in writing, and does not have to say why the report is wanted.

A defendant who has been charged gets the report through the case: the District Attorney, 413-594-7657, handles discovery for pending cases.
