The private firm is called Eagle Law Enforcement Systems. It describes itself on its website (www.eagle-us.com) as "an industry leader in providing comprehensive jail and records management software to the police, sheriff and corrections industries... With the addition of comprehensive mugshot imaging, document imaging, signature capture, fingerprint capture, and barcode scanner import modules, the Golden Eagle Inmate Management System has become a force to be reckoned with in the correctional software solutions market." Here's an Eagle-ware-created list of the people currently in the McCracken County Jail in Paducah, KY (which also, oddly sells T-shirts via the Net): http://www.mcccj.com/inmate/ICURRENT.HTM And here's the info on the Tehama County Detention Center in Red Bluff, CA: http://www.tehamaso.org/inmates/ICURRENT.HTM Also see: http://www.politechbot.com/cgi-bin/politech.cgi?name=jailcam -Declan ******** Date: Mon, 10 Sep 2001 20:56:12 -0700 To: declanat_private From: Rick Prelinger <footageat_private> Subject: inmate listings and info online Declan, Please forgive and ignore if you know of this or have already reported on it, but I was rather surprised and shocked to encounter this product -- a website creation module for local jails, correctional facilities and other agencies seeking to put their records online. The URL will link you to a number of current prison rosters, chock-full of criminal history info and pictures of inmates, many of whom are awaiting trial and unsentenced. http://www.eagle-us.com/customer.htm You are free to repost this if you like.
