Can ANYBODY read Kafka? This is government run amok, assuming minimal evidence to be sufficient for (temporary) imprisonment. Habeas Corpus is downgraded to appearance of an arrest warrant match. Computer systems are used to match minimal information as a pretext to imprisonment in a very poor process of STUPID identification. Yet, God Forbid, we miss a match to a later terrorist attack, the people making a reasoned choice will b absolutely pilloried!

NCIC requires first, last, mi, sex and date of birth. What it returns many times doesn't match what you put in.

I applied for a concealed weapons permit in Nevada and had a similar situation. They ran the NCIC and then made me sign a form acknowledging that if I didn't meet the criteria, I would forfeit my application fee. Then the lady called over her supervisor that looked at the multiple "hits" returned on my name. The supervisor quickly saw those hits had a different middle name and date of birth. Those hits were returned despite conflicting with what was queried.

As far as lawsuits go, the responsibility for accurate entries belongs with the agency entering the data. Arrests made not matching the data are the responsibility of the arresting agency. There are numerous warnings from the system about coordinating between arresting and receiving agencies about positive identification.
