Disclosure of civil rights cold case records or particular information within a civil rights cold case record to the public may be postponed subject to the limitations of this Act if there is clear and convincing evidence of any of the following: The threat to the military defense, law enforcement, intelligence operations, or the conduct of domestic affairs of the United States posed by the public disclosure of the civil rights cold case record is of such gravity that the disclosure outweighs the public interest and would reveal information described in paragraphs
(1)through
(9)of section 3.3(b) of Executive Order 13526 (75 Fed. Reg. 707; relating to classified national security information). The public disclosure of the civil rights cold case record would reveal the name or identity of a living individual who provided confidential information to the United States and would pose a substantial risk of harm to that individual. The public disclosure of the civil rights cold case record could reasonably be expected to constitute an unwarranted invasion of personal privacy, and that invasion of privacy is so substantial that the protection of privacy outweighs the public interest. The public disclosure of the civil rights cold case record would compromise the existence of an understanding of confidentiality currently requiring protection between a Government agent and a cooperating individual or group and public disclosure would be so harmful that the understanding of confidentiality outweighs the public interest.
