D.C. police data glitch kept relevant information from defense attorneys

Washington Times, The (DC) - March 18, 2015

D.C. prosecutors failed to provide criminal defense attorneys all relevant information obtained by police in an unknown number of cases, sparking a "large-scale" review of past and present cases that were potentially compromised by a flaw in the Metropolitan Police Department's data management system.

On the same day he announced his resignation, U.S. Attorney for the District Ronald C. Machen Jr. and District Attorney General Karl Racine notified criminal lawyers that a glitch in the police department's data management system inadvertently withheld information that should have been contained on police reports.

"Not all data entered into MPD's record management system (I/Leads) by its officers over the last three years was necessarily populated into MPD police forms that are provided by OAG in discovery to criminal defendants and respondents," Mr. Racine wrote in a letter sent Tuesday to defense attorneys.
