To the Office of the Secretary, I am writing as a retail investor in Maryland to formally support Petition 4-885 and to document the SEC's egregious and targeted obstruction of my legal rights. My experience demonstrates that the SEC is not merely suffering from a backlog, but is actively engaging in a coordinated effort to suppress information regarding MMAT, TRCH, and MMTLP. A prime example of this bad-faith conduct is Case 23-02947-FOIA. After repeated promises from the SEC to release the requested records, the case was abruptly closed just one day before the scheduled release date. The SEC claimed the records "no longer existed," despite the fact that the request involved over 636,000 pages of data. It is administratively impossible for such a vast volume of records to vanish overnight without intentional intervention. This is a clear act of systemic concealment and a direct violation of my legal rights. Furthermore, the SEC's pattern of behavior confirms that I have been personally targeted: Targeted Obstruction: Following my initial inquiries, the SEC consolidated over 200 of my FOIA requests last year, 133 requests early this year, and 8 requests last month into the "Complex Track." Improper Consolidation: Most recently, the SEC improperly bundled SEC Help Case HO 01536836 (regarding E*TRADE’s false statements and Rule 15c3-3 violations) with unrelated FOIA requests to ensure a 36-month delay. Administrative Malice: My name has clearly become a "target" for administrative retaliation. By systematically merging and delaying my requests, the SEC is intentionally "running out the clock" so that data retention periods expire before accountability begins. In response to this inhumane and unlawful tyranny, I have filed formal complaints with: SEC OIG: Three separate filings, including the most recent TMG202605745W. Department of Justice (DOJ): Submission Tracking Number 20260401-0001. The SEC is hiding something significant regarding MMTLP. I urge the Commission to adopt Petition 4-885 immediately to mandate the automatic preservation of records. The current system allows the SEC to destroy evidence under the guise of administrative delay, which is an affront to all shareholders and the rule of law. Sincerely, Alexander Yon Virus-free.www.avast.com
