I think the bigger issue (which another article I read on this last week described, but I sadly can&#x27;t find it right now) is that low punishment for when it&#x27;s caught means its more likely to happen and not be caught. There were 3 cases reported in 2015, how many went unreported? If the culture is &quot;oh it&#x27;s fine, just don&#x27;t be egregious about it&quot; I expect it&#x27;s happened a lot more than 3 times in the last year.<p>Do they not maintain proper audit logs? I work for Stack Overflow and I can&#x27;t look at a user&#x27;s PII without it being logged in multiple systems, do we have higher internal security than the police department?

The buried lede: one of the officers used the information to drive to the victim&#x27;s house and threaten him, yet received only a written reprimand.<p>If the situation had been reversed, and that man had driven to a police officer&#x27;s house to threaten him, I think that man would have been criminally charged or even shot on the spot.

What would be my penalty if I gained access and used the same information they did in exactly the same way? I would certainly be arrested, even if the data was publicly available.

The problem with State-run police is that they live under a different set of laws than the rest of us. We need to start treating all equally under the law, rather than having two classes of people: the State-connected, and the commoners.
