A suburban Chicago police officer used a $132 speeding ticket he issued to track down a woman and ask her for a date... [More]Creepy. And scary.
Good for her on the civil suit. But why do we see no unequivocal and harsh disciplinary action from his department? Or more? I thought personal access to record systems like that for non-official use was a crime...?
I don't have time to research this, but if anyone else does, am I on the right track suspecting this may be a reportable federal crime?

(a) Criminal Fine -- A person who knowingly violates this chapter shall be fined underthis title.
I couldn't find anything that would allow the "officer" to use the info like he did. It does look like he committed a federal crime. There is nothing about being locked away, just a fine.
