i've brought this up before, about this police data base.. now it has alegedly been shut down. apparently it is only in MN..so 'they' say.
ST. PAUL -- A massive state-run database of confidential police files was shut down Thursday out of concern it violated privacy laws,
officials said. Through a password-protected Internet site, the system gave police access -- sometimes right from their squad cars -- to a deep mine
of records that included the names of suspects, witnesses and those who have been arrested, convicted and sought gun permits. The network sometimes
offered a physical description and also contained juvenile files. Some saw it as the sort of tool that could help police protect citizens, but others
decried it as a Big Brother network operating outside the bounds of state regulation.
