Whatever happened to NCIC, the National Crime Information Center? I thot that was already in operation, and that it was just such a computer- ized database as this article described. Not true? Then there's the LEAA (Law Enforcement Assistance Act) system in Boston for the commonwealth of Massachusetts. For completeness, I suppose, I should point out that various local police organizations (town, county) have computerized databases these days. -- Kenn (decvax!)goutal

I know that NCIC (National Crime Information Computer, I think) is not a network per se, but links to it (terminal) are possible and they do exist, even in small communities like Manchester, NH and Freeport, NY. Ask a policeperson friend about it. Have him look up another friend but don't abuse it. aps.
