Dept. of Justice Seeks to Expand Information Sharing
The U.S. Department of Justice is pushing the FBI and its other operating units to speed up and expand their efforts to share a wide array of crime information with outside law enforcement agencies via a centralized database called OneDOJ. The plan to expand the use of OneDOJ by other law enforcement authorities at the federal, state and local levels has raised the hackles of some privacy and civil rights advocates, who said last week that the DOJ will need to work hard to ensure that the increased information sharing doesn�t infringe on the rights of law-abiding Americans.
