Let me clear the air a little bit him and my mom live in Baxter County AR, I am stationed in NY. He goes to his so called dealer to get a dimebag well he didn’t know the DEA was trying to take the dealer down. DEA says cooperate and we will drop everything. Long story short the dealer is still active and my bro has his face plastered on the NET. FOR A FREAKING DIMEBAG. So my other brother who is a lawyer I left a cpl messages with no answer yet. Oh it was a dimebag of pot…don’t know anything else that comes that way. I saw his pic and he was released and it just got me wondering what website can gain of a dimebag and getting charged with possession with inten to deliver?
Jail rosters are generally public information. I live in a fairly blue state with a lot of prisons (Colorado) and can look up any prisoner in the state system online.
Part of the thinking is that if it were secretive, the government could just disappear people (rightfully a concern with ICE right now) without anyone knowing.
I don’t see how it prevents anyone from getting disappeared. All they have to do is not add them to the database.
Well, any law is only as good as people following it (and enforcement for violations)
