Is Scott Walker taking Wis. Justice Dept back to horse & Buggy Days?

[Roger Perry]

MADISON - Gov. Scott Walker's budget plan denies funding for a high-tech file-sharing network that allows officers to transmit documents electronically and detect criminals' movements across jurisdictions.
The lack of money could cripple the Wisconsin Justice Information System. Contributions to the network have lagged, but the move could force dozens of police departments to revert to a pen-and-paper system and close down inter-agency connections the system's proponents say are crucial for resource-strapped investigators trying to connect the dots in a post-Sept. 11 world.
"To lose that WIJIS gateway because of funding is just ... it would be like, OK, here you got a horse. Today we're going to give you a brand new car. And then next week we're taking away the car and giving you a mule," said Gillett Police Chief Gary Pemrich. "If we lose it, someone could very well get hurt."
The network

The network was envisioned as a Google for cops. It enables officers to transmit citations to prosecutors and judges from squad car laptops, saving the time it would take to drive to the county seat and hand deliver the paperwork at the courthouse.

Yes....how dare he???

Ironically, several school districts that were going to have to close down because of the dastardly cuts, found they are coming out ahead.

Of course you don't see that on CNBC.


Just sayin'......

Noone is hindering law enforcement, it is just an over reaction you progressive liberals are famous for.

Here is more taken from the same article, it clearly states law enforcement will be hindered in the information it can receive.


"The system also bridges law enforcement agencies' databases, enabling police across Wisconsin to access millions of internal files from other agencies. Documents include court records, arrest records, incident reports and prosecutors' confidential files.
The links allow police to access layers of information beyond standard criminal background checks, which provide only arrest and charging records. Incident reports and prosecutor files offer police deeper, more detailed information about suspects, including details about contacts with police that didn't result in an arrest or charges.
A northern Wisconsin sheriff's department might respond to a burglary, run the suspect's name through the network and learn he's under investigation in Milwaukee for drugs or threatened someone in Green Bay. That information could help deputies deal with him on the street as well as tie him to similar unsolved crimes."

And you still did not provide any links where schools that thought they might have to close find themselves with more money after the budget cuts. Although the cuts will not be in effect for the remainder of this year we will have to wait for the cuts to take effect starting in September.

Having problems finding links to your statement?????? I made your statement larger and in bold type just in case you are having problems with the question about providing a link to your statement. Have you found one yet and don't care how far right of a publication you have to look in to back it up.

Or, you can start the name calling.

I don't have to do what you and Lil' Roger say.

It is being broadcast on radio stations here in WI on a daily basis.

Of course you know better, being there (in FL) and me being here (in WI).
