A new partnership changing the way the West Virginia State Police and Federal Bureau of Investigation share fingerprint data could double the cost of routine background checks for the West Virginia Lottery and Alcohol Beverage Control Administration.
The increase is an unintended consequence of a new system the State Police implemented to significantly increase the quality of the FBI's fingerprint records across all 50 states.

Missouri Court of Appeals Judge Nannette Baker has been tapped to join the federal court as a magistrate judge.
Baker will join the St. Louis-based federal court after the FBI completes its background check. She will fill the vacancy created when Judge Audrey Fleissig moved up to the district bench. Baker said she anticipates moving to the federal bench in March.

[Richard Rowden] learned this skill as a Burlington Police detective, a job he held for 27 years. With the click of a mouse, he pulls up a thumbprint he just scanned and explains the rudiments of identifying its unique characteristics according to its "loops," "arches" or "whorls." This one has a "delta," a Y-shaped pattern that resembles the confluence of two rivers. Another click, and the black-and-white fingerprint onscreen lights up with a series of green dots, lines and circles that pick out other unique identifiers.
The sheriff's department doesn't keep these fingerprints on file, or even run each person through the Vermont Criminal Information Center for outstanding warrants - though the technology is coming soon. But Rowden doesn't worry that wanted criminals are slipping throug...

I received my notice from the Texas Board of Nurse Examiners informing me that in order to renew my nursing license, I must submit my fingerprints for an FBI background check. Apparently, anyone working in the great State of Texas under a state-issued license is required to submit fingerprints ("The Governor's Database," April 20). So far, my research has uncovered that everyone from locksmiths, teachers, podiatrists, insurance brokers, real estate agents, etc. are being placed in a database. Each demographic is given "very credible" reasons why it is so important to leach out the "criminal" element that may have infiltrated its ranks. No FBI fingerprint, no license, no job, no income....what is really going on here? If more than a few nurses like myself decide to just retire instead of...
