Human Rights Def. Ctr. v. U.S. Park Police (D.D.C.) -- finding that: (1) agency properly relied on Exemption 6 to withhold names of tort claimants, and—invoking the court’s inherent powers—ordering plaintiff not to use or disseminate names of claimants that agency inadvertently disclosed; and (2) agency properly relied on Exemption 6 to withhold names of police officers involved in same tort claims, noting that disclosure would reveal “little more about Park Police’s conduct than what has already been disclosed,” e.g., settlement amounts and officers’ employment status.
