Ruben forgot to mention that the killer of the little Larson girl was in the USA illegally...hmmmm, merely an oversight? I doubt it. Ruben, stop protecting those damned illegals.

here's a database that works:

**Database program nets arrests of 22,000 illegal immigrants with criminal records**


http://www.dallasnews.com/sharedcontent/dws/n...

More than 22,000 illegal immigrants with criminal charges or convictions have been arrested in Texas through a 1-year-old program that links FBI and federal immigration databases, Homeland Security officials said Thursday.

About 12 percent of them, or 2,700 people, were charged or convicted of what authorities call "level one" crimes such as murder, rape, kidnapping or narcotics violations with a sentence of more than one year.

(snip)

Under the new system, fingerprints are run simultaneously through a national database to check criminal history and through a Homeland Security database to check the person's immigration status. All those arrested in jurisdictions using Secure Communities will have fingerprints checked in both databases, Homeland Security officials said.

"A key point is we do this for everyone," Morton said. "There is no distinction between citizen and noncitizen."

Morton said such blanket use would reduce racial profiling.

Every one of these databases has many many incidents of cops abusing the system by harrassing citizens (ask Sarah Palin about her Bro-in-law), cop x-girlfriends killed, information that is "freed" to private corporations for monetary gain, political shakedowns, "whoopsy" security, easy to get into the system - impossible to correct information. CRIMNET has had many of these problems in the past and has been shut down for abuses, including being controlled by a private cop organization with a political agenda.
It is difficult software to do correctly. A county sheriff like Fletcher or the disgraced Gang Bang unit could create some real state terror abusing a system like this. So stop with the puff piece and read some history.

Former police association contractor charged with snooping on 'Joe the Plumber'

Former police association contractor charged with snooping on 'Joe the Plumber' Wednesday, October 14, 2009 11:42 AM By Randy Ludlow The Columbus Dispatch

A former contractor for the Ohio Association of Chiefs of Police has been charged with rummaging through state computers to retrieve confidential information about "Joe the Plumber."

Brett A. Gerke, 52, of 2329 Woodcreek Place on the Far North Side, is charged with attempted unauthorized use of property.

Gerke entered a diversion program on Oct. 2, which typically results in the dismissal of a criminal charge. He has not entered a plea. The charge is a first-degree misdemeanor punishable by up to six months in jail.

The State Highway Patrol says that Gerke used a law-enforcement computer network on Oct. 16, 2008 to access personal information about Samuel Joseph Wurzelbacher.

The Toledo-area resident was popularized as "Joe the Plumber" by Republican John McCain in a presidential debate the night before with Democrat Barack Obama.

Gerke was project manager in the development of the Ohio Local Law Enforcement Information Sharing Network, working on the project between 2004 and 2008 as a contractor for the police chiefs' association.

Gerke used a test account and password he received to work on the project to search for information on Wurzelbacher and others, authorities say.

He was working as a contractor for the Ohio Department of Insurance at the time of the computer checks. Gerke's lawyer, Joseph Scott of Columbus, would not comment on the case.

The Dispatch revealed several questionable checks of state computer systems for confidential information about Wurzelbacher after the presidential debate.

Helen Jones-Kelley, then director of the Ohio Department of Job and Family Services, authorized several computer checks on Wurzelbacher that the state inspector general concluded had no legal purpose.

Jones-Kelley, who was suspended by Gov. Ted Strickland after The Dispatch also revealed that she used her state e-mail account to raise campaign funds for Obama, later resigned. Two of her top aides also lost their jobs.

Wurzelbacher has filed a federal lawsuit against Jones-Kelley and her two former aides seeking damages for violation of his privacy. The former state employees deny any wrongdoing.

just being a good lil’ union stooge...Glad to see pursuit of criminal activity via investigations, resignations, firings and hopefully charges filed. In days gone by in our former Republic, accessing databases on LE computers for “fishing expeditions” carried a heavy penalty when not for official purposes.

I know if you "keep your nose clean," nothing will happen to you. But this is just getting ridiculous how crazy the police state is getting. There's just no end to the amount of funding, gadgets, toys, and other gizmos they'll ask for (and claim will make us "safer.") Safer from whom? It's getting to the point I fear government MUCH more than "criminals."
