Larken rose: “The most Libertarian President ever!”
Donald Trump ’s second presidential administration shut down a national database that tracked misconduct by federal police, a resource that policing reform advocates hailed as essential to prevent officers with misconduct records from being able to move undetected between agencies.
The National Law Enforcement Accountability Database (NLEAD), which stored police records documenting misconduct, is now unavailable, the Washington Post first reported .
The US justice department also confirmed the database’s elimination in a statement issued online.
“User agencies can no longer query or add data to the NLEAD,” the statement read. “The US DOJ is decommissioning the NLEAD“
A weblink that hosted the database is no longer active .
