The lesson I keep getting from your experiences is that LEADS needs an overhaul.

It turns out other states do have flags for things like "extraditable warrant" vs. just failure to appear warrants (something mentioned in previous discussions), and perhaps something could be done about the LEADS system if attention was given to it. It seems like fixing one's data sources is a great approach vs. tossing the baby out with the bathwater — unless of course that's the intention all along, as it is with many opposed to state-owned surveillance of this nature.



When you fix LEADS, let me know, and I'll be happy to revisit.


Don't improve anything until you can fix everything! No incremental improvements allowed!


I have no idea what this has to say with anything that I said. Did you see me saying "no, don't fix LEADS"?
