The Yukon Police Department in Oklahoma uses LexisNexis’s Accurint Virtual Crime Center, confirmed through the EFF’s Atlas of Surveillance, sourced from the same Oklahoma City council document that simultaneously produced Atlas entries for the Canadian County Sheriff’s Office. Yukon is a city of about 30,000 residents in Canadian County, directly west of Oklahoma City. The fact that Yukon PD and the Canadian County Sheriff appear together in a single OKC council document strongly suggests this is a consortium arrangement — one in which the Canadian County Sheriff likely holds the master contract and Yukon PD participates as a sub-agency. This would be consistent with the lead-agency model confirmed in California, Florida, and Minnesota. Oklahoma has no sanctuary policies. A single public records request to the Canadian County Sheriff’s Office for its AVCC agreement and any interagency agreements covering Yukon PD would likely resolve both agency records simultaneously.

The Tallahassee Police Department is listed in the EFF’s Atlas of Surveillance as an Accurint Virtual Crime Center user, and the Atlas attributes that finding to the Miami Beach Police Department as its source — with a date of March 2024. That date aligns with a MuckRock FOIA response from Miami Beach PD that established Miami Beach as ‘the Lead Contract Agency in Florida for the LexisNexis Accurint Virtual Crime Center.’ The implication: Tallahassee PD may appear in Miami Beach PD’s sub-agency list — the interagency agreements it has executed on behalf of the state. If so, Tallahassee is a PSDEX contributor through the statewide Florida arrangement, not through a standalone contract of its own. Tallahassee is Florida’s capital city, with about 200,000 residents in Leon County. The Florida Department of Law Enforcement — also based in Tallahassee — is another likely Florida AVCC participant worth investigating separately. Florida prohibits sanctuary policies by state law (SB 168, 2019). A public records request to Miami Beach PD for its full list of interagency agreements would resolve Tallahassee’s status in one filing.

The Round Rock Police Department is a partner agency of the Austin Regional Intelligence Center, the Central Texas fusion center whose Accurint Virtual Crime Center access is procured and managed by the Austin Police Department under a 2023 cooperative contract with LexisNexis. A shared platform run for the consortium by a managing agency is a strong signal that partner records reach the LexisNexis Public Safety Data Exchange. The contribution addendum for the department is not yet in the public record.

The Fraser-Winter Park Police Department in Colorado is a CISC member with an enterprise license for LexisNexis’s Accurint Virtual Crime Center through the Colorado Information Sharing Consortium, confirmed through the EFF’s Atlas of Surveillance. Fraser-Winter Park is a small resort community in Grand County, in the Colorado Rockies west of Denver. It serves a year-round population of a few thousand residents that expands significantly with ski season visitors. Its presence in CISC illustrates the breadth of the consortium: CISC’s 124-agency network extends from the Denver metro to small mountain resort towns. Colorado’s VALE Act sanctuary protections apply statewide. Grand County has no local sanctuary policy. Resort communities like Fraser-Winter Park have significant seasonal Latino workforces in hospitality and construction; the CISC/PSDEX data pipeline reaching their local police department — through the same private intermediary used by Denver and Aurora — is consistent with the statewide pattern.

Eden Prairie Police Department is a confirmed contributor to LexisNexis's Public Safety Data Exchange (PSDEX). Its signed AVCC XML Addendum carries the Customer Data Contribution obligation and the irrevocable, worldwide license that lets LexisNexis copy, aggregate, and redistribute the department's records to other agencies on the platform. The department enrolled with LexisNexis in May 2022 and signed a paid Accurint Virtual Crime Center transactional (XML) data feed in September 2023, with a minimum commitment of about $10,000 a year and automatic annual renewal. The department's own data classification records, produced in 2026, show its records management system feeding LexisNexis, each crime type tagged with a 'Viewable By' setting of public, law enforcement only, or do not import. The city's website is unusually direct about the arrangement, stating that Community Crime Map is developed by LexisNexis and that crime alerts are produced by LexisNexis, not the police department. Eden Prairie is the data source. LexisNexis is the publisher. Eden Prairie is a suburb of about 65,000 in Hennepin County, southwest of Minneapolis. Minnesota is a sanctuary state, which makes the contribution a structural bypass: records the state limits from direct federal sharing can still reach federal customers who buy PSDEX access, with LexisNexis as the intermediary.

The Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department is the largest sheriff’s department in the United States, with about 9,500 sworn deputies serving roughly 10 million people across unincorporated LA County and 42 contract cities. Its jurisdiction makes it a critical agency in this investigation — but searches have not confirmed any LexisNexis AVCC, Accurint, or CCM relationship. LASD appears to use Thomson Reuters CLEAR for investigative records lookups — a competing product that does not participate in PSDEX. LASD also operates its own Consolidated Criminal History Reporting System (CCSF) and uses LACRIS (a regional biometrics system) and NCIClink for national records access. These are internal or FBI-operated systems, not LexisNexis. The absence of a confirmed LexisNexis relationship for LASD is notable given that both neighboring county sheriffs — Orange County SO and San Bernardino County SO — are confirmed AVCC consortium leads. LASD operating a different investigative platform than its neighbors is a meaningful finding, not just a gap. A public records request to confirm LASD’s current investigative database vendor would definitively close this question. California’s SB54 applies throughout LA County.

Breckenridge is one of Colorado’s most well-known ski resort towns, in Summit County in the central Rockies. Its police department is a CISC member with an enterprise license for LexisNexis’s Accurint Virtual Crime Center, confirmed through the EFF’s Atlas of Surveillance (August 2022). Breckenridge’s presence in CISC is notable for two reasons. First, it illustrates how the consortium’s enterprise license model works: smaller agencies that could not independently afford an AVCC subscription receive access through the state consortium’s bulk agreement. Second, Breckenridge has a significant seasonal Latino workforce in hospitality and mountain operations — workers who may have interactions with local police that generate records flowing into the PSDEX network. Colorado’s VALE Act sanctuary protections apply statewide. Summit County has no local sanctuary policy. The CISC data warehouse operates under a private company’s management, outside the reach of state sanctuary law.

Sandy Springs Police Department is standing up the LexisNexis Accurint Virtual Crime Center with a $1.6 million state grant, building a regional platform for multiple agencies to share crime data, jail booking data, crime mapping, and analytics (Rough Draft Atlanta, July 2023). The EFF Atlas of Surveillance separately confirms the department's AVCC use, and city figures put the ongoing AVCC cost near $127,655 per year. Sandy Springs is a Fulton County city of about 110,000 in the northern Atlanta suburbs and a notable contracted-services city. When it incorporated in 2005 it outsourced most municipal services to private companies, so the data governance around its LexisNexis relationship is worth close examination. Georgia has no sanctuary policies. What the record does not yet show is the signed AVCC XML Addendum that would confirm whether Sandy Springs feeds the national Public Safety Data Exchange, so this is a strong signal rather than a confirmed contribution. Georgia's Open Records Act (O.C.G.A. 50-18-70) requires a response within three business days, and a request for the AVCC contract and addendum would settle the question.

Laguna Woods is a city in Orange County, California that is policed directly by the Orange County Sheriff’s Department under a contract rather than having its own municipal police department. Because OCSD holds the AVCC consortium master contract through ILJAOC, Laguna Woods — as an OCSD contract city — is covered under that arrangement without executing its own separate sub-agency addendum. This matters because it shows the consortium’s reach extends beyond agencies with their own police departments. Every crime incident that OCSD deputies handle in Laguna Woods feeds into the same AVCC data pipeline as incidents handled in unincorporated Orange County or in cities with their own contributing PDs. Laguna Woods is a city of about 16,000 residents, predominantly a retirement community. Its incorporation as a separate city does not change the data flow, which runs through OCSD regardless of municipal boundaries. California’s SB54 applies.

The Portland Police Bureau is a confirmed contributor to the LexisNexis Public Safety Data Exchange (PSDEX). Its 2024 contract with LexisNexis Risk Solutions includes a signed AVCC XML Addendum, the specific document that activates data contribution to PSDEX. Section I of that addendum obligates the bureau to contribute public safety information, and Section II grants LexisNexis an irrevocable, worldwide license to aggregate that data, create derivative works from it, and redistribute it to every other PSDEX customer. The addendum was executed with the bureau's federal ORI number (OR0260200), and the optional clause sharing a de-identified subset of the data with third parties was affirmatively initialed. The subscription bundles Accurint Virtual Crime Center with Accurint for Law Enforcement, LE Plus, and LE Mobile (Plan 44), on a three year term running from April 2024 through March 2027. The annual fee is redacted in the released copy. Portland sits inside a sanctuary state. Oregon law sharply limits how local police may assist federal immigration enforcement, and the addendum itself cites the Oregon Constitution and the Oregon Tort Claims Act. Once the bureau's records enter PSDEX, they become searchable by law enforcement nationwide through LexisNexis, including federal agencies that hold subscriptions. Whether any specific victim or witness fields are transmitted has not been established at the field level, and would require the interface specification or data map to confirm.

The Arlington County Police Department in Virginia is a confirmed contributor to the LexisNexis Public Safety Data Exchange (PSDEX). Its complete contract with LexisNexis Risk Solutions (Arlington County Agreement No. 21-POL-SLA-576, signed June 23, 2022) includes a signed AVCC XML Addendum, the specific document that activates data contribution to PSDEX. Section I of that addendum obligates the department to contribute public safety information; Section II grants LexisNexis an irrevocable, worldwide license to aggregate that data, create derivative works from it, and redistribute it to every other PSDEX customer. The addendum is signed with the department's federal ORI number (VA0070100), and the optional clause sharing a de-identified subset of the data with third parties was affirmatively initialed. The subscription bundles Accurint Virtual Crime Center with Accurint for Law Enforcement, LE Plus, and LE Mobile, at $31,365 per year on a term running through June 2027. A separate Non-FCRA Government Application authorizes the department to retrieve full Social Security and driver's license numbers, with the stated permissible uses of locating suspects or criminals and identity verification. Arlington County sits directly across the Potomac from Washington, DC, one of the most federally proximate jurisdictions in this investigation, operating alongside ICE, CBP, and the FBI's Washington Field Office. Once the department's records enter PSDEX, they become searchable by other law enforcement agencies nationwide through LexisNexis, including federal agencies. The contract does not name the specific records system fields included in the automated feed, so whether victim and witness data is transmitted has not been established at the field level; an interface specification or data-mapping record would be needed to confirm that.

Miami Township Police Department in Montgomery County, Ohio contributes its public safety records to LexisNexis through the Public Safety Data Exchange. In May 2026 the department executed the Accurint Virtual Crime Center XML Addendum, the agreement that turns a software subscription into a data pipeline. Section I.2 obligates the department to submit its records to LexisNexis so that other agencies across the country can search them. Section II.1 hands LexisNexis a paid up, irrevocable, worldwide license to those records, a grant that survives even if the township cancels the service. The same six thousand dollar a year subscription gives Miami Township access to jail booking data and to full Social Security and driver's license numbers through LexisNexis. The contributions, drawn from the department's everyday incident reports, become part of a private national database that federal customers can reach, well outside the view of local oversight. On the same page of the addendum, Miami Township initialed the line declining to share even a de-identified subset of its data, the crime type, the date and time, and the general area of an incident, with the third parties that build public crime maps. The full feed goes to the law enforcement network. The version the public could have seen was withheld.

The Oklahoma County Sheriff’s Office uses LexisNexis’s Accurint Virtual Crime Center, confirmed through the EFF’s Atlas of Surveillance, sourced from an Oklahoma City council document dated December 2023. Oklahoma County is the most populous county in Oklahoma, with about 800,000 residents encompassing Oklahoma City. The Oklahoma City council document is the same source that produced Atlas entries for the Canadian County Sheriff’s Office and Yukon PD. Its appearance in an Oklahoma City council document — rather than an OKC council document directly — suggests a regional data-sharing arrangement that was presented to or approved by Oklahoma City government, potentially as a consortial arrangement spanning multiple counties. Oklahoma has no sanctuary policies. Whether Oklahoma County SO is a PSDEX data contributor has not been confirmed. A public records request targeting the full AVCC agreement and any consortium or interagency schedules would be the most efficient next step.

The Peoria Police Department in Arizona uses LexisNexis’s Community Crime Map, confirmed through the city’s official website with unusually explicit language: ‘In partnership with LexisNexis Risk Solutions, the Peoria Police Department now has an online crime map called Community Crime Map that maps and analyzes crime data and alerts Peoria citizens about crimes in their area.’ The attribution to LexisNexis Risk Solutions — the specific subsidiary that operates PSDEX — is among the clearest vendor disclosures found in this investigation. Peoria is a city of about 200,000 residents in Maricopa County, in the northwest Phoenix metro. The CCM relationship confirms that Peoria PD crime incident data flows automatically to LexisNexis Risk Solutions. Whether Peoria also has a PSDEX data contribution agreement is not confirmed. Arizona has no sanctuary policies. The Phoenix metro area has been the site of significant federal immigration enforcement activity. Other Maricopa County agencies in this database — Phoenix PD (CCM, since 2019), Chandler PD (CCM), Scottsdale PD (CCM), Tempe PD (CCM) — also use Community Crime Map, suggesting LexisNexis has wide penetration across the region.

West Sacramento is one of the 13 founding agencies of CVISS — the Central Valley Information Sharing System — which began in 2009 as a regional law enforcement data-sharing network running on IBM’s COPLINK platform. When Elk Grove PD’s City Council confirmed in July 2024 that CVISS had transitioned to LexisNexis’s Accurint Virtual Crime Center, that transition applied to all CVISS founding members, including West Sacramento. West Sacramento is a city of about 55,000 residents in Yolo County, directly across the Sacramento River from Sacramento. It is one of the smaller CVISS founding agencies, but its long-term participation in the consortium since 2009 means its law enforcement data has flowed through a shared regional system — now operated by LexisNexis — for over 15 years. California’s SB54 sanctuary law applies. West Sacramento has not enacted its own sanctuary policy but is subject to statewide restrictions. A signed CVISS/AVCC contribution agreement has not been independently confirmed at the contract level for West Sacramento specifically.

Aliso Viejo is a city of about 51,000 residents in Orange County, California, policed by the Orange County Sheriff’s Department under a law enforcement services contract. Like all OCSD contract cities, Aliso Viejo’s law enforcement data flows through OCSD’s AVCC consortium agreement with LexisNexis, administered through ILJAOC, without a separate sub-agency addendum for the city itself. The contract-city model is significant for this investigation because it substantially expands the reach of the OC consortium. Orange County has dozens of contract cities — municipalities that have chosen to contract with OCSD rather than maintain their own police departments. All of them sit within the same AVCC data pipeline as cities with their own confirmed sub-agency agreements. California’s SB54 applies throughout Orange County. Aliso Viejo is an affluent city in the Saddleback Valley with a relatively small immigrant population, but the data governance principle applies regardless of local demographics: all incidents handled by OCSD deputies in the city enter the PSDEX-connected data system.

The Durham Police Department in North Carolina has used LexisNexis’s Community Crime Map since at least mid-2018, confirmed through the city’s official crime statistics page and a 2018 departmental quarterly report. Durham’s CCM page describes it as a tool to ‘get crime stats in specific locations across the U.S. and locally,’ listing it alongside the department’s own citizen-facing reporting portal. Durham has a longer history with LexisNexis data tools than the CCM alone suggests. A Duke University Law Library blog post from 2010 documented that Durham — alongside Raleigh — was an early participant in RAIDS Online, a crime mapping platform that was later acquired by BAIR Analytics, itself a LexisNexis subsidiary. The transition from RAIDS Online to Community Crime Map likely happened sometime between 2015 and 2018, meaning Durham has had a continuous LexisNexis crime data relationship for roughly 15 years. North Carolina has no statewide sanctuary law — state law (HB 370) actually prohibits sanctuary designations, meaning there are no legal barriers to Durham police data reaching federal agencies. Whether Durham has a PSDEX contribution agreement on top of its CCM relationship is unconfirmed.

The Eagle Police Department in Eagle County, Colorado is a CISC member with an enterprise license for LexisNexis’s Accurint Virtual Crime Center, confirmed through Atlas of Surveillance and No Tech for ICE documentation. Eagle County is in the mountain resort corridor west of Denver, encompassing Vail and other resort communities. Eagle County has one of the largest Latino populations by percentage of any mountain county in Colorado — a significant portion of the workforce that maintains ski resort infrastructure, hospitality, and construction. Eagle County SO and the various municipal departments in the county all participate in CISC, meaning their law enforcement contacts with this community generate data flowing through the LexisNexis PSDEX network. Colorado’s VALE Act sanctuary protections apply statewide. The CISC enterprise license means Eagle PD accesses the full PSDEX network regardless of the size of its own contributing dataset.

The Rhode Island State Police Fusion Center is a confirmed subscriber to LexisNexis’s Accurint Virtual Crime Center, confirmed through state purchasing records obtained via public records request. The State of Rhode Island’s MPA 280 release activity report shows the Department of Public Safety — which houses the Fusion Center — paid $33,527 for ‘AVCC-ACCURINT TRAX SERVICE FOR VIRTUAL CRIME CENTER CHARGES FOR RISP FUSION CENTER’ across fiscal years 2022 through 2024. The RISP Fusion Center is explicitly named in the purchase order descriptions. Two products are confirmed: the Accurint Virtual Crime Center (AVCC) subscription itself, and TraX — a call detail record analysis tool bundled with AVCC that lets analysts map phone call networks and identify patterns of communication between individuals. TraX goes significantly beyond basic records lookup; it is an analytical tool for building investigation profiles from telecommunications data. Rhode Island is a small state with a notably concentrated law enforcement structure. The state police fusion center functions as the hub for intelligence sharing across the state’s agencies. Whether the fusion center is also a PSDEX data contributor — meaning Rhode Island law enforcement data flows out into the national database — has not been confirmed at the contract level, but AVCC subscribers are frequently contributors.

The Orange County Probation Department is a confirmed member of the Orange County Sheriff’s Department AVCC consortium, listed on the Schedule A attached to Santa Ana PD’s contract (N-2023-294, October 2023) and administered through ILJAOC as the billing intermediary. A probation department’s presence in a law enforcement investigative database consortium is worth examining on its own terms. Probation officers supervise people who have been convicted or are awaiting trial, including many immigrants and individuals with pending cases. Probation department access to PSDEX — including jail booking data from contributing agencies across the country — means that supervision decisions, home visits, and revocation proceedings could be informed by data pulled from the national LexisNexis network. Orange County Probation manages supervision for the county’s approximately 7,000 adult probationers. California’s SB54 sanctuary law applies, but probation supervision involves a distinct legal relationship with individuals that may create different data-sharing dynamics than patrol policing.

The Pueblo Police Department is a CISC member with an enterprise license for LexisNexis’s Accurint Virtual Crime Center, confirmed through the EFF’s Atlas of Surveillance. Pueblo is Colorado’s fifth-largest city, with about 115,000 residents in Pueblo County in southern Colorado. Pueblo is one of the most economically distressed cities in Colorado, with significant Latino and working-class populations. Unlike the Denver metro CISC members or the mountain resort towns, Pueblo represents the consortium’s reach into a smaller, post-industrial city where policing priorities and immigrant community concerns differ from wealthier jurisdictions. Colorado’s VALE Act applies statewide. Pueblo County has no local sanctuary policy. The CISC enterprise license applies equally to Pueblo PD as to any other consortium member, regardless of the local context.

The Colorado Division of Homeland Security and Emergency Management received an enterprise license for LexisNexis’s Accurint Virtual Crime Center through its membership in the Colorado Information Sharing Consortium, confirmed through the EFF’s Atlas of Surveillance (August 2022). A state homeland security division’s participation in PSDEX is worth examining beyond the law enforcement context. DHSEM manages emergency response coordination, critical infrastructure protection, and preparedness planning across Colorado. Its AVCC access means DHSEM analysts can query PSDEX data from thousands of contributing agencies nationwide — criminal records, arrest data, and booking information — as part of what is nominally an emergency management function. Colorado’s VALE Act applies. The federal Homeland Security context adds another potential pathway for data to reach federal immigration enforcement outside the normal law enforcement channel: DHSEM coordinates with FEMA and DHS, and its AVCC access could facilitate data sharing in that federal relationship.

The Boulder Police Department is a CISC member with an enterprise license for LexisNexis’s Accurint Virtual Crime Center through the Colorado Information Sharing Consortium, confirmed through Atlas of Surveillance and No Tech for ICE documentation. Boulder is one of Colorado’s designated sanctuary cities, with longstanding policies limiting cooperation with immigration enforcement. It is also a CISC member — meaning Boulder PD data flows through the same consortium that operates LexisNexis’s PSDEX data warehouse for the state. This is one of the clearest examples in this investigation of the private intermediary mechanism bypassing local sanctuary protections. Boulder’s sanctuary policies restrict what Boulder PD can do directly with ICE. They do not restrict what CISC — the consortium Boulder participates in — can do with data flowing through its LexisNexis-operated warehouse. Colorado’s VALE Act provides statewide sanctuary protections, but neither state nor local law reaches the private company operating the data warehouse.

Arvada PD's Policy 460 (effective June 2025) documents that mobile license plate reader data is retained by LexisNexis Risk Solutions under a bilateral agreement. The department keeps a local copy for 364 days; LexisNexis's own retention period and access terms are not disclosed in the policy. This is the first known law enforcement policy manual to explicitly state that patrol car ALPR data flows to LexisNexis — the company that operates Accurint for Law Enforcement and the Public Safety Data Exchange (PSDEX). No probable cause or reasonable suspicion is required before scanning. Under Section 460.7, data may be released to other law enforcement agencies at any time for legitimate law enforcement purposes. Arvada PD publishes its full policy manual at public.powerdms.com/APD10/tree.

The West Lake Hills Police Department is a charter partner agency of the Austin Regional Intelligence Center (ARIC), the Central Texas fusion center whose Accurint Virtual Crime Center access is procured and managed by the Austin Police Department. Its membership is recorded in ARIC's Amended and Restated Interlocal Agreement, signed in 2024. Whether the department holds an individual AVCC seat is not established by that agreement: the 2023 AVCC procurement named only six partner agencies and this one was not among them, so its contribution status is unconfirmed pending the executed contract and seat list.

The Costa Mesa Police Department is a confirmed member of the Orange County Sheriff’s Department AVCC consortium, listed on the Schedule A attached to Santa Ana PD’s contract (N-2023-294, October 2023). The Schedule A specifically confirms Jail Booking Search and Report access — meaning Costa Mesa PD can query booking data from PSDEX contributors nationwide, and its own booking data flows into the system. Costa Mesa is a city of about 115,000 residents in Orange County, bordering Newport Beach and Santa Ana. It is home to South Coast Plaza, one of the largest shopping centers in the United States, and has a significant Latino and Vietnamese immigrant population. California’s SB54 sanctuary law applies. Costa Mesa does not have its own sanctuary policy. The OC AVCC consortium is administered through ILJAOC, meaning a public records request to ILJAOC — rather than Costa Mesa PD directly — would be the most efficient route to obtaining the full sub-agency addendum.

The Denton Police Department in Texas has an approved five-year contract with LexisNexis Risk Solutions for the Accurint Virtual Crime Center, authorized by Denton City Council on March 25, 2025 and valued at up to $123,324. The council item described the product as ‘Accurint Virtual Crime Center system, including subscription-based computer assisted investigative research services and related products for the Police Department.’ The contract was executed through the Texas DIR Cooperative Contract (DIR-CPO-5255) — a statewide vehicle that allows Texas government agencies to purchase LexisNexis products without a standalone procurement process. This is the same mechanism through which many Texas agencies access LexisNexis products. Denton is a city of about 150,000 residents in Denton County, north of the Dallas-Fort Worth metro, home to two major universities. Texas has no sanctuary policies. The AVCC subscription confirms Denton PD has at minimum investigative access to PSDEX data contributed by agencies nationwide. Whether Denton also has a data contribution addendum — meaning its own crime data flows into PSDEX — has not been confirmed. Obtaining the Schedule A would answer this.

The California State University Fullerton Police Department is a member of the Orange County AVCC consortium, confirmed as a listed agency in the ILJAOC Joint Powers Agreement (2022 revised version) and on the Schedule A attached to Santa Ana PD’s contract. A university campus police department’s presence in a law enforcement data-sharing consortium is significant. CSUF PD serves a campus of about 40,000 students in the city of Fullerton, Orange County. Through its AVCC consortium membership, CSUF PD officers have access to PSDEX data contributed by agencies nationwide — including jail booking data, arrest records, and crime reports from thousands of participating agencies. The university community includes substantial numbers of international students and students from immigrant families. California’s SB54 sanctuary law applies. University police departments occupy a legally complex position: they are state law enforcement agencies with jurisdiction on campus, but they operate within an institutional context that includes federal Title IV compliance obligations and FERPA protections for student records. Whether CSUF PD’s AVCC access extends to contributing campus police data to PSDEX has not been confirmed.

Hawthorne Police Department operates the shared public safety network for at least one neighboring city and runs the LexisNexis Accurint Virtual Crime Center on that network, making it a likely Accurint subscriber and possible contributor. Under a 2024 agreement, Hawthorne hosts and manages the public safety systems, including Tiburon/CentralSquare computer-aided dispatch, Mark43 records management, and a data warehouse, and sublicenses them, along with the Accurint Virtual Crime Center and the LexisNexis Desk Officer Reporting System, to the City of El Segundo. As the network operator, Hawthorne sits at the point where local police data meets the LexisNexis platform. The documents on file confirm Hawthorne's role as host and its AVCC integration but do not include Hawthorne's own AVCC contribution addendum, so whether Hawthorne feeds records into the national Public Safety Data Exchange is unconfirmed. A records request to Hawthorne for its LexisNexis contracts would clarify both its own status and the data flowing through it from partner agencies.

Aurora is Colorado’s third-largest city, with about 390,000 residents spread across three counties — Arapahoe, Adams, and Douglas. Its police department representative Chris Juul served on the CISC Board of Directors, confirmed through January 2021 meeting minutes. CISC — the Colorado Information Sharing Consortium — operates the LexisNexis PSDEX data warehouse for Colorado, a role confirmed directly by CISC’s Executive Director in a public records response. Board membership places Aurora PD among the agencies governing the infrastructure through which 124 Colorado law enforcement agencies contribute data to LexisNexis. Eighty-seven of those agencies actively mirror booking and release data. Aurora has been a flashpoint in discussions about immigration enforcement and police use of technology — it is the city where federal agents made highly visible arrests in 2025. The Colorado VALE Act provides statewide sanctuary protections, but the CISC/PSDEX pipeline routes through LexisNexis as a private intermediary, placing it outside the statute’s reach.

Indiana State Police has a statewide contract with LexisNexis Risk Solutions for ARIES — the Automated Reporting Information Exchange System — which is Indiana’s crash reporting platform for all state and local law enforcement. Indiana’s own Criminal Justice Institute describes the relationship plainly: ‘As part of its contract with Indiana State Police, LexisNexis Risk Solutions provides ARIES to state and local governments free of charge and charges a small fee for crash records and research requests.’ An Indiana Public Access Counselor opinion (17-FC-202) adds a critical legal detail: the ARIES agreement makes LexisNexis the custodian of information that ISP owns. LexisNexis is not just a vendor; it is the legal data custodian for every Indiana law enforcement crash report submitted through the system. ISP is also named as a BuyCrash customer on LexisNexis marketing materials, confirming the public-facing crash report distribution side of the same platform. The open question is whether the ARIES contract includes PSDEX data contribution language — which would mean Indiana crash data feeds the national investigative database. A FOIA for the full ISP/ARIES contract is a high priority.

Dana Point is a coastal city in southern Orange County with about 34,000 residents, policed by the Orange County Sheriff’s Department under a law enforcement services contract. As an OCSD contract city, Dana Point’s law enforcement data flows through OCSD’s AVCC consortium agreement with LexisNexis — administered through ILJAOC — without a separate sub-agency addendum for the city. Dana Point is a tourist and marina destination, with a significant population of Mexican and Central American immigrants working in hospitality, fishing, and construction. All incidents handled by OCSD deputies in the city — including contacts with this community — feed into the same LexisNexis data pipeline as incidents in Santa Ana and Anaheim. California’s SB54 applies throughout Orange County. The contract-city structure means that Dana Point residents, despite having no vote on police data-sharing arrangements specific to their city, are covered by OCSD’s data decisions.

The Timnath Police Department in Colorado is a CISC member with an enterprise license for LexisNexis’s Accurint Virtual Crime Center, confirmed through the EFF’s Atlas of Surveillance. Timnath is a small and rapidly growing town in Weld County, in the northern Front Range between Fort Collins and Greeley. Timnath’s presence in CISC illustrates that the consortium serves both large metro agencies and small but fast-growing exurban communities. Weld County, where Timnath is located, has historically cooperated with immigration enforcement — the county is in the agricultural heartland of the northern Front Range and has a significant immigrant farmworker and meatpacking workforce. Colorado’s VALE Act applies statewide. As with all CISC enterprise license recipients, Timnath PD’s PSDEX contributor status versus subscriber-only status has not been confirmed at the addendum level.

The Loveland Police Department in Colorado is a CISC member with an enterprise license for LexisNexis’s Accurint Virtual Crime Center, confirmed through the EFF’s Atlas of Surveillance. Loveland is a city of about 80,000 residents in Larimer County, in the northern Front Range between Fort Collins and Denver. Loveland sits in a region with significant agricultural and manufacturing industries and a growing Latino immigrant population in food processing and construction sectors. Larimer County and its municipalities participate in CISC, meaning law enforcement contacts throughout the county generate data flowing through the LexisNexis PSDEX network. Colorado’s VALE Act applies statewide. Loveland has no local sanctuary policy. The CISC enterprise license gives Loveland PD access to the full PSDEX network and — to the extent Loveland contributes data — makes its records accessible to all PSDEX subscribers nationwide.

The Colorado Department of Corrections is a CISC member with an enterprise license for LexisNexis’s Accurint Virtual Crime Center through the Colorado Information Sharing Consortium, confirmed through the EFF’s Atlas of Surveillance and No Tech for ICE documentation. A state corrections department’s participation in a law enforcement investigative database is worth examining on its own terms. CDOC manages approximately 20,000 people in state prisons and oversees parole supervision for tens of thousands more. Corrections officials’ access to PSDEX data — including real-time jail booking data from thousands of agencies nationwide — could affect housing placement decisions, parole violation findings, and reentry planning for incarcerated people. Colorado has VALE Act sanctuary protections. The CISC/PSDEX pipeline, as a private intermediary, sits outside the reach of that statute. Whether CDOC is a PSDEX data contributor — meaning state prison data flows into the national database — or solely an investigative subscriber has not been confirmed at the contract level.

The Fountain Valley Police Department is a confirmed member of the Orange County Sheriff’s Department AVCC consortium, listed on the Schedule A attached to Santa Ana PD’s contract (N-2023-294, October 2023). Like Costa Mesa, the Schedule A confirms Jail Booking Search and Report access. Fountain Valley is a city of about 55,000 residents in Orange County, between Santa Ana and Huntington Beach. Its police department is a smaller agency by OC standards, but its consortium membership means its crime records and booking data flow into — and it can search across — the full PSDEX national database. This record is most useful as part of the broader OC consortium picture: each confirmed sub-agency on the Schedule A represents another jurisdiction whose data flows through ILJAOC and LexisNexis into PSDEX. The full Schedule A has not been obtained; a FOIA to ILJAOC for the complete list remains the highest-value single filing for Orange County.

The Federal Heights Police Department is a CISC member with an enterprise license for LexisNexis’s Accurint Virtual Crime Center, confirmed through Atlas of Surveillance and No Tech for ICE documentation. Federal Heights is a small city of about 15,000 residents in Adams County, in the northern Denver metro. Federal Heights is one of the most economically and demographically diverse communities in the Denver metro — a small, working-class city with a significant Latino population and some of the lowest median incomes in the region. Its inclusion in CISC as a consortium member means its police data flows through the same LexisNexis infrastructure as Denver and Aurora. Colorado’s VALE Act applies statewide. Adams County has sanctuary-adjacent policies but no formal sanctuary designation. The enterprise license model means Federal Heights PD received AVCC access as part of the statewide consortium agreement rather than negotiating its own contract.

The Integrated Law and Justice Agency of Orange County — known as ILJAOC — is a joint powers authority that serves as the formal billing intermediary for the Orange County AVCC consortium. It is not a law enforcement agency itself, but it holds the master contract with LexisNexis on behalf of the Orange County Sheriff’s Department and all consortium sub-agencies. This structural detail has real investigative consequences. A public records request for the OC AVCC master contract should be filed with ILJAOC — not the Orange County Sheriff’s Department directly. ILJAOC’s executive director signed the governing agreement on January 31, 2023. The most recent confirmed contract term runs through June 2029, with an annual subscription fee of $462,000 for the optional renewal period. ILJAOC’s governing documents — its joint powers agreement and member agency list — would identify every Orange County criminal justice agency participating in the consortium arrangement, potentially unlocking the full list of 50+ sub-agencies in a single filing. ILJAOC is funded by and accountable to its member agencies, making its records directly accessible under California’s CPRA.

The Ramsey County Sheriff’s Office in Minnesota uses LexisNexis’s Community Crime Map and shares that data feed with seven municipalities it serves under contract: Arden Hills, Falcon Heights, Little Canada, North Oaks, Shoreview, Vadnais Heights, and White Bear Township. The sheriff’s own website states the office ‘has partnered with LexisNexis to share calls for service information via the website Community Crime Map.’ The multi-municipality reach is notable. When a county sheriff uses CCM and serves as a policing contractor for smaller cities, a single LexisNexis agreement generates data flows from multiple jurisdictions. Vadnais Heights confirms this independently — the city’s website attributes its crime map data to the Ramsey County Sheriff’s Office, which in turn feeds it through LexisNexis. Ramsey County includes St. Paul, Minnesota’s capital. Ramsey County was among the Minnesota counties that complied with fewer than 10% of ICE detainer requests. Minnesota became a sanctuary state in May 2025. Whether Ramsey County SO has a PSDEX data contribution agreement on top of its CCM relationship has not been confirmed.

The Austin Independent School District Police Department is a partner agency of the Austin Regional Intelligence Center (ARIC), the Central Texas fusion center whose Accurint Virtual Crime Center access is procured and managed by the Austin Police Department. In response to a public records request, the district stated it has no direct agreement with LexisNexis and reaches the platform only through ARIC, which maintains all access configuration and data. That confirms access but not contribution: whether the district's records are fed into the LexisNexis Public Safety Data Exchange is unconfirmed, and no contribution addendum is in the public record.

Citrus Heights is one of the 13 founding agencies of CVISS — the Central Valley Information Sharing System — which started in 2009 and transitioned from IBM COPLINK to LexisNexis’s Accurint Virtual Crime Center in 2024, as confirmed by Elk Grove PD’s July 2024 city council vote. As a founding member, Citrus Heights PD has been part of this regional data-sharing network for over 15 years. Citrus Heights is a city of about 90,000 residents in Sacramento County, in the northeastern Sacramento metro. The city incorporated relatively recently (1997) and contracts its police services through its own Citrus Heights Police Department, which is a founding CVISS member. California’s SB54 sanctuary law applies. A signed CVISS/AVCC contribution agreement has not been independently confirmed at the contract level for Citrus Heights specifically, but the founding member status and the confirmed AVCC transition make this one of the stronger suspected contributors among CVISS agencies awaiting individual confirmation.

The Georgetown Police Department is a partner agency of the Austin Regional Intelligence Center, the Central Texas fusion center whose Accurint Virtual Crime Center access is procured and managed by the Austin Police Department under a 2023 cooperative contract with LexisNexis. A shared platform run for the consortium by a managing agency is a strong signal that partner records reach the LexisNexis Public Safety Data Exchange. The contribution addendum for the department is not yet in the public record.

Colorado Springs is Colorado’s second-largest city, with about 480,000 residents in El Paso County. Its police department representative Sean Mandel served on the CISC Board of Directors, confirmed through January 2021 meeting minutes. El Paso County is separately named in the ‘Sabotaging Sanctuary’ report as a PSDEX contributor, which provides an independent line of confirmation that law enforcement data from this area flows into LexisNexis’s network. CISC operates the LexisNexis PSDEX data warehouse for Colorado, confirmed directly by CISC’s Executive Director. Board membership means Colorado Springs PD is among the agencies governing a system that handles data from 124 Colorado agencies, 87 of which actively mirror booking and release data. Colorado Springs has no local sanctuary protections, and El Paso County has historically cooperated with immigration enforcement. The Colorado VALE Act applies statewide but does not reach the private intermediary through which PSDEX data flows.

The Bridgeport Police Department uses LexisNexis’s Community Crime Map, confirmed through multiple sources including the city’s official website, which links directly to communitycrimemap.com under its crime statistics section, and a News12 report that documented the launch: ‘Bridgeport police are making crime statistics available to the public online. The department says it is using information technology provided by LexisNexis to launch its community crime maps.’ Bridgeport is Connecticut’s largest city by population, with about 148,000 residents in Fairfield County — a post-industrial city with one of the highest concentrations of immigrant residents in New England. CCM requires an automated feed of crime incident data from Bridgeport PD’s emergency dispatch system to LexisNexis, a feed that has been running since at least the time of the News12 report. Connecticut has no statewide sanctuary law, though several cities including New Haven have local sanctuary policies. Bridgeport itself does not have formal sanctuary protections. Whether Bridgeport PD has a PSDEX data contribution agreement on top of its CCM relationship is unconfirmed and would require a public records request under Connecticut’s Freedom of Information Act.

The Elgin Police Department is a charter partner agency of the Austin Regional Intelligence Center (ARIC), the Central Texas fusion center whose Accurint Virtual Crime Center access is procured and managed by the Austin Police Department. Its membership is recorded in ARIC's Amended and Restated Interlocal Agreement, signed in 2024. Whether the department holds an individual AVCC seat is not established by that agreement: the 2023 AVCC procurement named only six partner agencies and this one was not among them, so its contribution status is unconfirmed pending the executed contract and seat list.

The New York State Intelligence Center — New York’s statewide fusion center — uses LexisNexis’s Accurint investigative platform, confirmed through the EFF’s Atlas of Surveillance. NYSIC is operated by the New York State Police and serves as the intelligence hub for state and local law enforcement across New York. Fusion centers occupy a structurally unique position in the LexisNexis ecosystem. They typically aggregate intelligence from multiple contributing agencies and provide analysis back to local departments. If NYSIC has an AVCC subscription, it may be accessing PSDEX data contributed by agencies in other states — and potentially sharing New York intelligence outward — without any individual local agency having a direct LexisNexis contract. New York City negotiated its Appriss VINE contract specifically without the Risk Solutions clause, a deliberate choice to prevent jail booking data from reaching LexisNexis. Whether the same privacy consciousness that produced that negotiation also shaped how NYSIC structured its Accurint relationship is worth investigating. New York has significant local and county-level sanctuary policies. A FOIA to the New York State Police for the full NYSIC Accurint contract would clarify the scope.

The Buda Police Department is a charter partner agency of the Austin Regional Intelligence Center (ARIC), the Central Texas fusion center whose Accurint Virtual Crime Center access is procured and managed by the Austin Police Department. Its membership is recorded in ARIC's Amended and Restated Interlocal Agreement, signed in 2024. Whether the department holds an individual AVCC seat is not established by that agreement: the 2023 AVCC procurement named only six partner agencies and this one was not among them, so its contribution status is unconfirmed pending the executed contract and seat list.

The Ottawa County Sheriff's Office holds the master LexisNexis contract for a five-agency consortium in western Michigan. It pays LexisNexis directly for the Accurint Virtual Crime Center and then bills the other departments for their share. A cost-allocation agreement in a December 2025 Grand Haven council packet names the Sheriff's Office as the sole contract holder, with the Holland and Grand Haven Departments of Public Safety, Grand Valley State University Police, and the Zeeland Police Department buying in. The county pays LexisNexis a base of about $48,000 a year for the Accurint Virtual Crime Center plus crash and citation reporting, and recovers most of it from the partner agencies, split by each department's number of sworn officers. The Accurint fee rises three percent a year. The agreement confirms the Sheriff's Office runs Accurint for the region. What it does not include is the contribution addendum that would show whether Ottawa County feeds local records into the national Public Safety Data Exchange. The cost-sharing document covers access and billing, not data contribution. A records request to the Sheriff's Office for its executed Accurint contract and addendum would settle that question.

The San Bernardino County Sheriff's Office leads an Accurint Virtual Crime Center consortium covering law enforcement agencies across the Inland Empire region of Southern California. San Bernardino County is the largest county by area in the contiguous United States — roughly the size of West Virginia — with a population of about 2.2 million. The consortium was confirmed through an executed contract addendum in Redlands PD's public document portal, which explicitly names the San Bernardino County Sheriff's Office as the lead agency and lists 14 member cities: Rancho Cucamonga, Chino Hills, Hesperia, Highland, Loma Linda, Twentynine Palms, Victorville, Yucaipa, Yucca Valley, Apple Valley, Adelanto, Grand Terrace, Needles, and Redlands itself. As consortium lead, SBCSO holds the master contract with LexisNexis. Member agencies sign sub-agency addenda that include language requiring them to contribute their police data — dispatch records, crime reports, and arrest data — to LexisNexis's PSDEX database. A full list of consortium members beyond the 14 confirmed cities has not yet been obtained. The sheriff's own contracts division holds the Schedule A document listing all participating agencies — a public records request is pending.

Columbia is the capital of South Carolina and confirmed a LexisNexis Community Crime Map user since at least October 2017, when the Columbia Police Department’s blog described CCM as ‘a nifty link to a LexisNexis Community Crime Map – an interactive look at crimes committed in a geographic area.’ The tool was described as allowing views ranging from a single street up to the entire Midlands region. CCM requires an automated feed of crime incident data from Columbia PD’s records management system to LexisNexis. That feed has been running for at least eight years. Whether Columbia PD has also signed a PSDEX data contribution agreement — which would make its crime records searchable by other agencies nationwide, including federal ones — is not confirmed at the contract level. South Carolina has no sanctuary policies. A 2024 state law (HB 4373) further reinforced that agencies must cooperate with federal immigration requests, meaning Columbia PD data accessible through LexisNexis faces no legal barriers to reaching ICE.

The Philadelphia Police Department does not appear to use any LexisNexis products directly. It has its own crime mapping system, its crash reports go through a Pennsylvania state portal (not LexisNexis), and as of late 2023 it had no online civilian crime reporting system. However, there is an indirect pathway worth watching. When PPD arrests someone who is detained, that person goes to Philadelphia Prisons — the city’s jail system. Philadelphia Prisons connects to Pennsylvania’s statewide victim notification network, called PA SAVIN, which is operated by a private company called Appriss Insights (owned by Equifax). In other states — most notably Cook County, Illinois — Appriss has included a ‘Risk Solutions’ clause in its contracts that allows Appriss to share jail booking data with LexisNexis Risk Solutions. LexisNexis then packages that data into Accurint, which ICE has used to identify and track people for immigration enforcement. Whether Pennsylvania’s contract with Appriss contains the same clause is not yet known. If it does, then every person booked into a Philadelphia jail — including crime victims who were themselves arrested, or witnesses detained as material witnesses — could have their information flowing to LexisNexis and from there to ICE. Philadelphia is a sanctuary city, and this would represent a direct bypass of those protections. A public records request has been filed targeting the Pennsylvania Commission on Crime and Delinquency (PCCD), which manages the PA SAVIN contract, to determine whether this clause exists.

The Concordia University Police Department is a charter partner agency of the Austin Regional Intelligence Center (ARIC), the Central Texas fusion center whose Accurint Virtual Crime Center access is procured and managed by the Austin Police Department. Its membership is recorded in ARIC's Amended and Restated Interlocal Agreement, signed in 2024. Whether the department holds an individual AVCC seat is not established by that agreement: the 2023 AVCC procurement named only six partner agencies and this one was not among them, so its contribution status is unconfirmed pending the executed contract and seat list. As a private campus police department inside a fusion center with commercial law enforcement data access, it is of note on the student and faculty data angle.

The Tampa Police Department uses LexisNexis’s Community Crime Map, confirmed through the city’s official website: ‘The Tampa Police Department has teamed up with LexisNexis Community Crime Map to provide easy to read, geocoded data on specific crimes.’ The page attributes the data to LexisNexis explicitly. Tampa is Florida’s third-largest city, with about 400,000 residents in Hillsborough County. Two LexisNexis relationships in Hillsborough County are now documented: Tampa PD’s CCM and the Hillsborough County Sheriff’s Office’s DORS (Desk Officer Reporting System). The CCM relationship confirms automated incident data flowing from Tampa PD to LexisNexis. Whether Tampa PD has a PSDEX data contribution agreement on top of its CCM relationship has not been confirmed. Florida prohibits sanctuary policies by state law. Tampa sits in the same county as the confirmed DORS user — a pattern suggesting strong LexisNexis penetration across Hillsborough County law enforcement overall.

The Providence Police Department is documented in the EFF’s Atlas of Surveillance as conducting 625 searches using LexisNexis’s Accurint investigative platform. That number — a specific count rather than just a vendor name — suggests the data comes from a departmental report or audit that tracked search volume, which is a more granular confirmation than a simple vendor disclosure. ProvidenceProvidence is Rhode Island’s capital and largest city, with about 190,000 residents. It sits alongside the Rhode Island State Police Fusion Center and the Rhode Island Attorney General’s Office, both of which are also confirmed LexisNexis users in this database. Rhode Island’s small geography and concentrated law enforcement structure means these agencies likely operate within overlapping data environments. Accurint for Law Enforcement gives Providence PD officers the ability to search LexisNexis’s database of records on individuals. Whether Providence PD also has an AVCC data contribution agreement — meaning its crime records flow into PSDEX — has not been confirmed. Rhode Island has no statewide sanctuary law.

The Elk Grove Police Department joined the Central Valley Information Sharing System (CVISS) consortium for LexisNexis’s Accurint Virtual Crime Center, confirmed by a City Council vote on July 24, 2024. The council agenda item describes the arrangement plainly: ‘Agencies enter into this cost sharing agreement to participate in the information-sharing system known as Accurint Virtual Crime Center (AVCC) via the CVISS Consortium.’ Elk Grove pays approximately $15,281 per year for its participation. The data it contributes is broad: crime reports from its records management system, field investigations, citations, mugshots, and arrest reports. All of that flows into LexisNexis’s PSDEX database, where it is accessible to other law enforcement agencies — and to federal agencies with PSDEX subscriptions. Elk Grove’s significance in this investigation goes beyond its own data. As one of the 13 original CVISS founding agencies from 2009, it confirms that the consortium’s transition from its old software platform (IBM COPLINK) to LexisNexis AVCC was completed and voted on at the city level. That means the same transition almost certainly applies to the other 12 CVISS founding agencies — including Sacramento County Sheriff’s Office, Sacramento PD, Placer County SO, Yolo County SO, and several Sacramento-area cities — though individual confirmation is still pending for each. California’s SB54 sanctuary law applies throughout the region.

Denver is the largest city in Colorado and one of the named PSDEX contributors in the ‘Sabotaging Sanctuary’ report published in 2022 by the Colorado Immigrant Rights Coalition and Mijente. Denver also has VALE Act sanctuary protections — the state’s 2019 law restricting cooperation with immigration enforcement — as well as local policies. Denver PD’s connection to LexisNexis’s PSDEX runs through CISC — the Colorado Information Sharing Consortium, a Colorado-based organization that operates the PSDEX data warehouse for LexisNexis in the state. CISC confirmed this role directly in a public records response. Denver PD representative Ron Saunier served on the CISC Board of Directors, documented in board meeting minutes from January 2021. The board meeting also included a LexisNexis account manager and representatives from the FBI. CISC connects 124 Colorado law enforcement agencies, 87 of which actively mirror booking and release data. As a board member governing that infrastructure, Denver PD is almost certainly among the contributing agencies. The ‘Sabotaging Sanctuary’ report named Denver County specifically. The mechanism is the same one found in California and Minnesota: local sanctuary laws restrict what law enforcement can share directly with ICE, but the CISC/PSDEX route passes through a private company that those laws don’t regulate.

Grand County Sheriff's Office is a Colorado Information Sharing Consortium (CISC) member whose consortium agreement makes contribution to the national PSDEX pool an opt-in consent decision, not an automatic consequence of joining. Whether the county granted that consent is recorded in its AVCC Addendum, which has not been obtained, so national contribution is unconfirmed. The signed intergovernmental agreement is public through the county's records portal, and the board's discussion of it is posted as audio.

Lathrop is a city of about 28,000 people in San Joaquin County — and it is the smallest confirmed contributor to the Public Safety Data Exchange (PSDEX) in this database. On February 12, 2024, the Lathrop City Council voted to join the San Joaquin County Sheriff’s Office AVCC consortium. The staff report accompanying that vote described the arrangement explicitly as a ‘Public Safety Data Exchange Consortium’ and spelled out what data would be contributed: records management system data, computer-aided dispatch records, and jail management system data. Lathrop PD agreed to contribute all three. The five-year cost comes to approximately $21,710 total — around $5,000 to $5,600 per year, prorated based on sworn officer count. Year one was covered by a federal Homeland Security grant, meaning the federal government effectively paid for Lathrop’s initial entry into a system that federal agencies like ICE then pay to access. Lathrop’s significance is as a lower bound. If a city of 28,000 with a small police department is in this consortium, it strongly suggests that larger San Joaquin County cities — Stockton, Manteca, Tracy, Lodi, and others — are participating as well. The consortium’s stated scope covers ‘all cities within the County,’ though individual confirmation for each city is still pending.

The Travis County Sheriff's Office is a partner agency of the Austin Regional Intelligence Center, the Central Texas fusion center whose Accurint Virtual Crime Center access is procured and managed by the Austin Police Department under a 2023 cooperative contract with LexisNexis. A shared platform run for the consortium by a managing agency is a strong signal that partner records reach the LexisNexis Public Safety Data Exchange. The contribution addendum for the office is not yet in the public record.

The Inglewood Police Department subscribes to LexisNexis's Accurint platform. A February 24, 2026 City Council agenda item — including the LexisNexis "Schedule A — Accurint Virtual Crime Center (Subscription)" and a December 22, 2025 LexisNexis quote — sets out a five-year agreement (term March 1, 2026 to February 28, 2031) for unlimited use of the Accurint Virtual Crime Center, Accurint for Law Enforcement, and Accurint for Law Enforcement Mobile. The Year 1 subscription fee is $57,289, rising 3% annually to $64,479 in Year 5; the council authorization is not to exceed $304,156 plus a $10,000 contingency. The LexisNexis account manager is Mark Staniak. The staff report and Schedule A describe Accurint as an investigative search tool — used for background investigations, link analysis, mapping, and locating people — and the bulk of the Schedule A is per-search pricing for query features, which LexisNexis designates as non-FCRA services. The subscription fee "shall include up to 5 Database Interfaces," and the LexisNexis quote lists Community Crime Map as included at no additional charge. Based on these documents, Inglewood appears to use Accurint as a subscriber/search tool rather than as a data contributor: there is no AVCC data-contribution addendum or license clause in the record, and no evidence that the department feeds its records-management data to LexisNexis. Notably, although Community Crime Map is bundled into the package for free, Inglewood publishes its public crime map through CrimeMapping.com rather than LexisNexis Community Crime Map, so even that optional feed does not appear to be in use. A public-records request for any AVCC data-contribution addendum or Database Interface agreement would be needed to rule contribution in or out definitively.

The Commerce City Police Department is a CISC member with an enterprise license for LexisNexis’s Accurint Virtual Crime Center, confirmed through Atlas of Surveillance and No Tech for ICE documentation. Commerce City is a city of about 65,000 residents in Adams County, in the northeastern Denver metro. Commerce City is home to one of the largest Latino communities in the Denver metro, including significant Central American immigrant populations working in oil refining, agriculture, and transportation. It is adjacent to the Denver International Airport and sits at the intersection of major transportation corridors. Law enforcement contacts in Commerce City generate data flowing through the CISC/LexisNexis PSDEX system into the national database. Colorado’s VALE Act applies statewide. The CISC enterprise license means Commerce City PD is part of the same data infrastructure — with the same potential reach to ICE through LexisNexis subscriptions — as every other Colorado CISC member, regardless of local community demographics or priorities.

The Phoenix Police Department has two documented connections to LexisNexis — one confirmed, one indirect and unverified. The confirmed connection is the Community Crime Map. Phoenix's official crime statistics page states: 'Communitycrimemap.com is a program operated by LexisNexis through a government contract with the City of Phoenix.' This language has been on the site since at least 2019. Community Crime Map automatically pulls incident data from Phoenix PD's records management system and feeds it into LexisNexis infrastructure. Phoenix is one of the largest agencies in the country to use this product — it serves a city of 1.6 million people, the fifth-largest in the US. What this means for data flow: Phoenix PD crime incident records move automatically from the department's internal records system to LexisNexis on an ongoing basis. Whether Phoenix also has a signed agreement to contribute that data to the Public Safety Data Exchange (PSDEX) — the contributory database that federal agencies like ICE can search — is not yet confirmed. Community Crime Map and PSDEX are different products; a separate contract addendum would be required for PSDEX contribution. The indirect connection runs through the Maricopa County jail system. When Phoenix PD arrests someone who is detained, they go to Maricopa County Jail. In 2021, the Arizona Criminal Justice Commission contracted with Appriss to build a statewide victim notification system (VINE) connecting all 15 Arizona county jails and the state prison system. If Arizona's contract with Appriss includes the same data-sharing clause found in Cook County, Illinois — which allows Appriss to share real-time jail booking data with LexisNexis — then Phoenix arrest data would flow through a second pipeline to LexisNexis. Whether that clause exists in Arizona's contract is not yet known. Arizona has no sanctuary policies. There are no legal barriers to any of this data reaching federal immigration enforcement.

The Fresno Police Department has a confirmed LexisNexis contract, obtained through a California Public Records Act request fulfilled in early 2024. The responsive documents include a DORS subscription agreement executed in April 2020, monthly invoices from 2020 through 2024, and billing approvals from the city’s Information Services Department. Fresno also confirmed it does not use Thomson Reuters CLEAR or TransUnion TLOxp — LexisNexis is the department’s primary investigative data platform. DORS is a LexisNexis investigative access product that gives officers the ability to search LexisNexis’s database of records on individuals — address histories, phone numbers, vehicle registrations, associates, and more. It is distinct from the AVCC/PSDEX system: DORS gives the agency access to data; PSDEX requires the agency to contribute its own data. Whether Fresno has also signed an AVCC contribution agreement is the unresolved question. Retrieving the full contract documents from MuckRock would clarify this. Fresno is California’s fifth-largest city, with about 540,000 residents in the San Joaquin Valley. California’s SB54 sanctuary law applies.

The Stockton Police Department has multiple independent confirmations of a LexisNexis data relationship, though a signed PSDEX contribution agreement has not yet been publicly confirmed. The department’s official website links to the LexisNexis Community Crime Map as its public crime tool, which requires an automated feed of incident data from Stockton PD’s records management system. Separately, a 2017 investigative report documented Stockton PD using Accurint Crime Analysis since 2015 for a predictive policing program called Project Forebode — automated RMS and CAD data feeds confirmed. And the San Joaquin County Sheriff’s Office PSDEX Consortium, documented in the February 2024 Lathrop City Council staff report, was designed to cover ‘all cities within the County,’ with the majority of cities expressing initial interest at the time. Stockton is San Joaquin County’s largest city, with about 320,000 residents including large Latino and Hmong immigrant communities. California’s SB54 sanctuary law applies. If Stockton PD has joined the county consortium — as the consortium’s stated scope implies — its crime records, dispatch data, and potentially jail booking data would flow into PSDEX and be accessible to federal agencies.

Brookhaven Police Department runs the LexisNexis Community Crime Map, which means it maintains an automated feed of its crime records into the LexisNexis crime-data-sharing system. Brookhaven is a first-ring Atlanta suburb in DeKalb County, population about 55,000. Community Crime Map is the public face of the same platform family as the Accurint Virtual Crime Center, and LexisNexis sets up a direct automated feed from each participating agency's records system. A CCM feed by itself does not confirm an AVCC subscription or contribution to the national Public Safety Data Exchange, so Brookhaven is a suspected rather than confirmed AVCC participant. A records request for the agency's LexisNexis agreements would clarify whether the feed extends into AVCC and PSDEX.

The Rhode Island Office of Attorney General purchased Accurint for Law Enforcement subscriptions through the state’s master purchasing agreement, confirmed by the same state purchasing records that document the State Police Fusion Center’s AVCC subscriptions. Three purchase orders are on file, covering the period from July 2022 through June 2024, with the number of licensed users growing from one to five over that period. Accurint for Law Enforcement is the investigative access version of LexisNexis’s database — it gives licensed users the ability to search comprehensive records on individuals including address history, associates, phone numbers, and vehicle registrations. It is distinct from the AVCC contribution system, though agencies frequently hold both. The expansion from one user to five users between 2022 and 2024 suggests the AG’s office found the tool valuable enough to scale up. The Rhode Island AG’s office oversees criminal prosecutions across the state, including cases involving immigration and human trafficking. Its use of Accurint for Law Enforcement is notable in that context — this is not patrol-level data access but prosecutorial investigation work. Total spend across the covered period: approximately $9,545.

The Pflugerville Police Department is a charter partner agency of the Austin Regional Intelligence Center (ARIC), the Central Texas fusion center whose Accurint Virtual Crime Center access is procured and managed by the Austin Police Department. Its membership is recorded in ARIC's Amended and Restated Interlocal Agreement, signed in 2024. Whether the department holds an individual AVCC seat is not established by that agreement: the 2023 AVCC procurement named only six partner agencies and this one was not among them, so its contribution status is unconfirmed pending the executed contract and seat list.

The Clearwater Police Department in Florida uses LexisNexis’s Accurint Virtual Crime Center, confirmed through the EFF’s Atlas of Surveillance. Clearwater is a city of about 120,000 residents in Pinellas County, on Florida’s Gulf Coast across the bay from Tampa. Clearwater’s AVCC confirmation adds a third LexisNexis data point to the Tampa Bay area. Hillsborough County Sheriff’s Office (across the bay) uses DORS, and Tampa PD uses Community Crime Map. Clearwater PD’s AVCC use — in adjacent Pinellas County — suggests LexisNexis has strong penetration across the broader Tampa Bay region. Florida prohibits sanctuary policies. Clearwater PD’s AVCC subscription suggests it is at minimum accessing PSDEX data from other agencies. Whether Clearwater also has a data contribution agreement — meaning its crime records flow into PSDEX — has not been confirmed at the contract level.

The Brawley Police Department holds a paid subscription to the LexisNexis Accurint Virtual Crime Center but states it does not contribute or share data with Accurint or the LexisNexis Public Safety Data Exchange. The department confirmed this in response to a public records request and reaffirmed it in a public comment on June 18, 2026. The subscription itself is documented in the city's December 3, 2024 council warrant register, which lists recurring AVCC subscription payments to LexisNexis Risk Solutions. Brawley is therefore a reader and subscriber, not a contributor: a clear example of platform access that does not involve feeding records into the network.

The Moore Police Department in Oklahoma uses LexisNexis’s Accurint Virtual Crime Center, confirmed through the EFF’s Atlas of Surveillance. Moore is a city of about 65,000 residents in Cleveland County, directly south of Oklahoma City. Moore PD appears in the Atlas sourced from the same Oklahoma City council document that produced entries for the Oklahoma County Sheriff’s Office and Canadian County Sheriff’s Office. Multiple agencies from different counties appearing in a single Oklahoma City council document is a strong indicator of a regional consortium arrangement — one in which Oklahoma City or a central Oklahoma sheriff may function as the lead contract agency for surrounding municipalities and counties. Oklahoma has no sanctuary policies. If Moore PD is a sub-agency in a regional AVCC consortium, it would be contributing data rather than simply accessing it — but that distinction depends on the addendum language, which has not been confirmed.

The Grand Haven Department of Public Safety is a participating member of a five-agency western Michigan consortium that pays for the LexisNexis Accurint Virtual Crime Center through the Ottawa County Sheriff's Office. The department's own director laid out the arrangement in a December 2025 memo: Grand Haven already uses LexisNexis but does not hold the contract, which sits entirely with the Sheriff's Office. Through a cost-allocation agreement, Grand Haven keeps access to the Accurint Virtual Crime Center and LexisNexis crash and citation reporting and reimburses the county for its share, set by its 33 sworn officers at about $5,700 in the first year. The agreement covers access and billing, not data contribution. Whether Grand Haven's records reach the national Public Safety Data Exchange depends on the Sheriff's master Accurint contract and its addendum, which a records request would surface.

Ashland Police Department is a LexisNexis customer and Accurint for Law Enforcement subscriber, but there is no evidence it holds the Accurint Virtual Crime Center or contributes data to PSDEX. An AVCC contract would be expected to surface in the records reviewed if one existed, so on current evidence Ashland appears to be a reader of LexisNexis data, not an AVCC/PSDEX customer or contributor.

The Lee County Sheriff’s Office was a confirmed PSDEX contributor as of September 2020, when the Fort Myers City Council approved its own AVCC agreement and a council staff report noted that AVCC ‘currently has over 1,600 agencies providing data to LexisNexis including Cape Coral Police Department and the Lee County Sheriff’s Office.’ That reference — written to persuade Fort Myers to join — confirms Lee County SO was already inside the PSDEX network. Lee County is on Florida’s Gulf Coast, anchored by Fort Myers and Cape Coral. The county has no sanctuary policies and has cooperated actively with immigration enforcement. The sheriff’s office runs the county jail, meaning booking data — the most sensitive category of data PSDEX contributors can share — is almost certainly included in what Lee County SO contributes, though the specific data fields in its contributing agreement have not been independently confirmed.

The Austin Police Department hosts the Austin Regional Intelligence Center, the Central Texas fusion center, and procures and manages the center's Accurint Virtual Crime Center deployment under a 2023 cooperative contract with LexisNexis worth up to $1.8 million over five years. The same deployment serves five partner agencies. As the agency running the platform for the consortium, Austin PD sits at the center of a regional data-sharing arrangement that is a strong signal of contribution to the LexisNexis Public Safety Data Exchange. The executed contribution addendum is not yet in the public record.

The Fayetteville Police Department in Arkansas uses LexisNexis’s Community Crime Map, confirmed through the city’s official website: ‘Crime mapping is an interactive map...View the LexisNexis Community Crime Map.’ The page links directly to communitycrimemap.com. Fayetteville is the largest city in Northwest Arkansas, home to the University of Arkansas, with about 100,000 residents in Washington County. The CCM relationship confirms that Fayetteville PD crime incident data flows automatically to LexisNexis on an ongoing basis. Whether Fayetteville has also signed a PSDEX data contribution agreement is not confirmed. Arkansas has a strong public records law — the Arkansas FOIA Act (Ark. Code Ann. § 25-19-101) requires a response within three business days, faster than most states. Arkansas has no sanctuary policies. A FOIA to Fayetteville PD asking for the CCM contract and any AVCC addendum would be among the fastest to return in this investigation.

The Alaska Department of Public Safety (DPS) is a confirmed contributor to the LexisNexis Accurint Virtual Crime Center (AVCC). In a grant application published through the State of Alaska's Online Public Notices system, DPS stated that its records management system (RMS) data "is fed into LexisNexis Accurint Virtual Crime Center, a database available to law enforcement throughout the country." The same document shows DPS took on an unusual role: it signed a five-year agreement with LexisNexis and committed to soliciting local law enforcement agencies across Alaska to join and pay for their own AVCC subscriptions. DPS framed AVCC as a way to overcome the barrier of incompatible RMS systems used by agencies throughout the state — effectively positioning the department as a statewide hub for adoption of the LexisNexis platform. According to the application, the agreement ran through 2023 and DPS expected it to be renewed the following year. Because AVCC pools contributed police data and makes it searchable by law enforcement nationwide — including federal agencies that hold LexisNexis subscriptions — Alaska police records routed through this system become accessible well beyond the state.

The Sacramento Police Department uses LexisNexis’s Community Crime Map, confirmed through the city’s official website, which links directly to the CCM platform. Sacramento PD is also one of the 13 founding agencies of CVISS — the Central Valley Information Sharing System — which transitioned from its original IBM COPLINK platform to LexisNexis’s Accurint Virtual Crime Center in 2024, as confirmed by the Elk Grove City Council’s July 2024 vote to join. As a CVISS founding member, Sacramento PD is likely a PSDEX contributor through the CVISS consortium, with Sacramento County Sheriff’s Office as the probable lead agency. Sacramento PD covers California’s capital city — about 530,000 residents — and is a declared sanctuary city. SB54 applies statewide. A signed CVISS/AVCC contribution agreement has not yet been independently confirmed at the contract level; a public records request is pending. The Community Crime Map relationship has been active for several years and confirms that Sacramento PD crime incident data flows to LexisNexis on an ongoing basis, independent of the PSDEX question.

The Berkeley Police Department uses LexisNexis software, confirmed through the EFF’s Atlas of Surveillance, which documents LexisNexis ‘software searches’ at Berkeley PD. The specific product is not named in the Atlas entry — it could be Accurint for Law Enforcement, the AVCC investigative platform, or another LexisNexis tool. Berkeley is one of the oldest sanctuary cities in the United States, with sanctuary policies dating to the 1970s, and has some of the strongest local protections against cooperation with immigration enforcement of any city in the country. The presence of a LexisNexis software relationship in Berkeley PD — even with product details unconfirmed — is therefore notable. California’s SB54 applies statewide. Alameda County Sheriff’s Office, which serves as the county jail and is separately confirmed as a PSDEX member, operates within the same county. Whether Berkeley PD’s LexisNexis use constitutes a data contribution to PSDEX — potentially feeding the same network that Alameda County SO participates in — is the key open question. A California CPRA request for any LexisNexis contract would clarify both the product and the contribution status.

The Chicago Police Department does not appear to use any LexisNexis products directly. CPD manages its own crash report portal, uses its own open data platform for crime statistics, and ended its ShotSpotter contract in 2023. No Community Crime Map, AVCC, PSDEX, or Accurint contract has been found for CPD specifically. The significant data story involving Chicago runs through a different agency: the Cook County Sheriff’s Office, which runs the Cook County Jail. When CPD arrests someone who is detained, that person enters the Cook County jail system. The jail’s Appriss VINE contract — confirmed to contain a ‘Risk Solutions’ clause allowing Appriss to share real-time booking data with LexisNexis — means that CPD arrest data reaches LexisNexis through the detention step, not through CPD itself. The result is that Chicago’s sanctuary protections — the Illinois TRUST Act and the city’s own Welcoming City Ordinance — apply to what CPD can do directly. They don’t apply to what Appriss can do with data it receives from the jail under a service contract. The indirect pipeline is confirmed. A public records request targeting CPD directly for any LexisNexis contracts would be worth filing to close out the direct question.

The San Marcos Police Department is a charter partner agency of the Austin Regional Intelligence Center (ARIC), the Central Texas fusion center whose Accurint Virtual Crime Center access is procured and managed by the Austin Police Department. Its membership is recorded in ARIC's Amended and Restated Interlocal Agreement, signed in 2024. Whether the department holds an individual AVCC seat is not established by that agreement: the 2023 AVCC procurement named only six partner agencies and this one was not among them, so its contribution status is unconfirmed pending the executed contract and seat list.

The Greensboro Police Department in North Carolina uses two separate LexisNexis products, which is worth understanding because they do different things. The first is the Community Crime Map, launched in July 2022. This is a publicly accessible website where residents can view recent crime activity in their neighborhood. Behind the scenes, it works by automatically syncing data from Greensboro PD’s internal records management system to LexisNexis on an ongoing basis. That sync means Greensboro crime incident data is continuously flowing into LexisNexis infrastructure. The second is Accurint for Law Enforcement, confirmed through the EFF’s Atlas of Surveillance database. This is a separate investigative tool that gives Greensboro PD officers access to LexisNexis’s database of public and commercial records on individuals — address history, relatives, associates, vehicle registrations, and more. It is a research tool for investigators, not a public-facing product. Whether Greensboro also has a signed data contribution agreement with PSDEX — which would mean Greensboro crime records could be searched by other agencies nationwide, including federal ones — has not been confirmed. The Community Crime Map relationship is a strong signal that a PSDEX contribution agreement may exist, but the two are separate contracts and one does not automatically mean the other. A public records request is pending to determine if a PSDEX addendum exists. North Carolina has no statewide sanctuary law.

Douglas County is a fast-growing suburban county south of Denver, politically conservative and without sanctuary protections — which means data from its sheriff’s office flows to federal agencies without the legal complications present in neighboring Denver or Boulder. Douglas County Sheriff’s Office representative Brad Heyden served on the CISC Board of Directors, confirmed through January 2021 meeting minutes. CISC — the Colorado Information Sharing Consortium — operates the PSDEX data warehouse for LexisNexis in Colorado, confirmed directly by CISC’s Executive Director in a public records response. Board membership means Douglas County SO is governing the system through which 124 Colorado agencies contribute law enforcement data to LexisNexis. Douglas County includes Lone Tree, Parker, Castle Rock, and Highlands Ranch — largely affluent communities in the southern Denver metro. The Douglas County Jail feeds into Colorado’s VINE system, which is managed through Appriss. Whether that contract contains a Risk Solutions clause allowing jail booking data to flow to LexisNexis separately is an open question under investigation.

The Illinois State Police is a confirmed subscriber to LexisNexis Accurint for Law Enforcement, documented through the EFF’s Atlas of Surveillance. As the statewide agency, ISP plays a gateway role in Illinois’ criminal justice data infrastructure — it manages statewide CJIS connectivity and handles crash reporting for state highways and Cook County freeways. Accurint for Law Enforcement is an investigative access product: it gives ISP officers the ability to search LexisNexis’s database of individual records. Whether ISP has also signed an AVCC data contribution agreement — meaning Illinois State Police data flows into PSDEX and is searchable by federal agencies — is not confirmed. That question is particularly significant given ISP’s statewide reach and its role in a state where the Cook County VINE pipeline is already a confirmed sanctuary bypass. ISP manages crash reporting through its own state portal and does not use LexisNexis BuyCrash — unlike Texas, where TxDOT routes all crash reports through LexisNexis statewide.

The Redlands Police Department is a confirmed contributor to LexisNexis’s Public Safety Data Exchange through the San Bernardino County Sheriff’s Office consortium. The confirmation comes from an executed contract addendum in the City of Redlands’ own public document portal, which shows Redlands PD signed the AVCC XML Addendum as a consortium sub-agency, with the San Bernardino County Sheriff’s Office named as consortium lead. Redlands is a city of about 70,000 people in the Inland Empire, roughly 60 miles east of Los Angeles. Its participation is significant for two reasons. First, it was the document that cracked the San Bernardino County consortium open — the Redlands WebLink addendum was the primary source confirming SBCSO as a lead agency and listing 13 other consortium member cities. Second, it confirms that the addendum language Maplewood PD signed in Minnesota — the irrevocable license, the data contribution requirement, the PSDEX third-party beneficiary clause — is the same standardized contract LexisNexis uses nationwide. The document found in Redlands’ portal is from November 2023. California’s SB54 sanctuary law applies.

The Austin Fire Department is a charter partner agency of the Austin Regional Intelligence Center (ARIC), the Central Texas fusion center whose Accurint Virtual Crime Center access is procured and managed by the Austin Police Department. Its membership is recorded in ARIC's Amended and Restated Interlocal Agreement, signed in 2024. Whether the department holds an individual AVCC seat is not established by that agreement: the 2023 AVCC procurement named only six partner agencies and this one was not among them, so its contribution status is unconfirmed pending the executed contract and seat list. A fire department's presence as a fusion center partner is itself unusual and worth noting.

The Houston Police Department has two confirmed connections to LexisNexis, neither confirmed yet as a direct PSDEX data contribution. The first is the Community Crime Map. Houston’s official crime statistics page is explicitly titled ‘Community Crime Map hosted by LexisNexis.com,’ confirming an active contract that automatically syncs HPD’s incident data to LexisNexis. The second is BuyCrash: HPD’s public information page directs the public to buycrash.lexisnexisrisk.com for traffic collision reports, via TxDOT. Texas uses LexisNexis BuyCrash as its statewide crash report distribution platform, meaning every HPD crash report submitted to TxDOT flows through LexisNexis infrastructure. Neither product automatically equals PSDEX contribution. Community Crime Map agencies are frequently PSDEX contributors — but a separate AVCC XML Addendum is required and has not been found for HPD. The BuyCrash relationship means LexisNexis holds HPD crash data but does not confirm PSDEX contribution without a separate contract. A public records request targeting the AVCC addendum is the next step. Texas has no sanctuary policies — state law explicitly prohibits them.

Broomfield is a unique jurisdiction — it is both a city and a county, the only combined city-county in Colorado, with about 74,000 residents between Denver and Boulder. Its police department representative Gary Creager served on the CISC Board of Directors, confirmed through January 2021 meeting minutes. CISC — the Colorado Information Sharing Consortium — operates the LexisNexis PSDEX data warehouse for Colorado, confirmed directly by CISC’s Executive Director. Board membership means Broomfield PD is among the agencies governing infrastructure that handles law enforcement data from 124 Colorado agencies. Broomfield has no sanctuary protections. Broomfield’s position between Denver (VALE Act sanctuary city) and Boulder (sanctuary city) makes it a useful point of comparison: the same CISC/PSDEX pipeline reaches agencies with and without sanctuary policies alike, and the private intermediary structure means sanctuary laws in neighboring jurisdictions don’t affect the data flow.

The San Francisco Police Department used LexisNexis Accurint from at least several years before 2023 until June 30, 2023, when it terminated the relationship and switched to Thomson Reuters CLEAR. The transition was documented in SFPD Department Bulletin 23-100: ‘Effective July 1, 2023, the Department is transitioning from LexisNexis Accurint to Thomson Reuters Clear for Law Enforcement.’ SFPD’s use of Accurint appears to have been as an investigative search tool — officers were required to enter a case number when conducting searches, suggesting it was used for active investigations rather than passive background data contribution. Whether SFPD also had a PSDEX data contribution agreement during that period is not confirmed. The termination matters for two reasons. First, it shows agencies can and do exit LexisNexis relationships. Second, Thomson Reuters CLEAR — the replacement — does not participate in PSDEX, so San Francisco’s switch was meaningful from a data-contribution standpoint. San Francisco has had sanctuary policies since 1989. Whether any SFPD data contributed during the Accurint years remains in LexisNexis’s database under the irrevocable license terms standard in AVCC contracts is an open question worth pursuing.

Tennessee has a statewide contract — SWC 396 — with LexisNexis Risk Solutions that covers Accurint for Law Enforcement, the Accurint Virtual Crime Center, and Accurint TraX. The contract was confirmed through the Tennessee Department of General Services CPO procurement portal, which published a pricing schedule tied to a competitive bid (Invitation to Bid Event No. 32110-13380). Standard statewide cooperative contracts like SWC 396 allow any Tennessee state agency or local government to purchase LexisNexis products through a pre-negotiated agreement, rather than going through a separate procurement process. This means that city and county law enforcement agencies across Tennessee can access — and potentially contribute data to — LexisNexis’s PSDEX without ever passing a separate council resolution or executing a standalone contract. The total universe of Tennessee agencies using these products through SWC 396 is not publicly visible. A public records request to the Tennessee Department of General Services for all purchase orders issued under SWC 396 would, in a single response, map which Tennessee agencies are AVCC subscribers. Tennessee has no sanctuary law. Missouri operates a similar statewide LexisNexis acquisition mechanism under RSMo 34.044 and is worth a parallel investigation.

The Roseville Police Department in Minnesota uses LexisNexis’s Community Crime Map through a blanket partnership between LexisNexis and LETG — Law Enforcement Technology Group — a company that supplied records management software to over 200 Minnesota law enforcement agencies. Roseville’s website describes it plainly: ‘Community Crime Map is provided to the Roseville Police Department at no additional cost to the city, through a partnership between LETG and LexisNexis.’ The LETG partnership reveals a structural pattern: LexisNexis expanded its reach by embedding Community Crime Map into the dominant regional RMS vendor’s software, making the data feed a bundled feature rather than a separate contract decision. Agencies whose records software came from LETG may have been feeding crime data to LexisNexis for years without a dedicated council vote or a standalone contract. LETG was acquired by Zuercher Technologies in 2015, but the LexisNexis arrangement persisted for legacy clients. Whether Roseville — or other former LETG agencies — also have PSDEX contribution agreements requires a separate inquiry. Minnesota became a sanctuary state in May 2025.

San Luis Obispo Police Department shows Accurint Virtual Crime Center as a line item on its purchase orders for 2023 and 2024, confirming the department subscribes to the LexisNexis AVCC platform. San Luis Obispo is a city of about 47,000 on California's central coast. This is access-tier evidence: the POs confirm an AVCC subscription but not the signed AVCC XML Addendum that would establish whether the department contributes data to the national Public Safety Data Exchange, so its contributor status is suspected rather than confirmed. California's SB54 sanctuary law applies. A records request for the executed AVCC agreement and addendum would settle it.

San Joaquin County Sheriff’s Office leads what its own documents call a ‘Public Safety Data Exchange Consortium’ — making it one of the few agencies that openly uses the PSDEX name in its contracting documents. The arrangement covers the entire county: the consortium is designed to include ‘all cities within the County and the San Joaquin County District Attorney.’ That means data from agencies serving Stockton, Manteca, Tracy, Lodi, Ripon, and Escalon — as well as the DA’s office — is intended to flow into the system. The Sheriff’s Office has used the Accurint Virtual Crime Center since 2021, and formalized the county-wide consortium through a five-year agreement running from February 2024 through January 2029. The data types contributed are broad: computer-aided dispatch records, records management system data, and jail booking data. The county pays approximately $40,000 to $50,000 per year for the lead agency subscription, with individual city agencies paying smaller pro-rated amounts based on sworn officer count. Year one was covered by a federal Homeland Security grant. This was confirmed through a Lathrop City Council staff report from February 2024, which described the agreement in detail when the city voted to join the consortium. Lathrop — a city of about 28,000 people — is the only confirmed sub-agency so far, though the consortium’s stated scope covers the entire county. California’s SB54 sanctuary law applies throughout San Joaquin County.

The Zeeland Police Department is the smallest participating member of a five-agency western Michigan consortium that pays for the LexisNexis Accurint Virtual Crime Center through the Ottawa County Sheriff's Office. Under a December 2025 cost-allocation agreement, Zeeland gets access to the Accurint Virtual Crime Center, Accurint for Law Enforcement, and LexisNexis crash and citation reporting through the Sheriff's master contract and reimburses the county for its share, set by its 10 sworn officers at about $1,700 in the first year. The agreement covers access and billing, not data contribution. Whether Zeeland's records reach the national Public Safety Data Exchange depends on the Sheriff's master Accurint contract and addendum, which a records request would surface.

To view Accurint-related agenda items for Contra Costa County, visit the county's public records portal at https://contra-costa.legistar.com/ and search the 2025 meeting minutes for "Accurint".

Eddy County, New Mexico filed an August 2025 sole-source justification to buy the LexisNexis Accurint Virtual Crime Center, naming LexisNexis as the sole provider of AVCC. The $6,500 three-month procurement describes agency-wide analytics, public-records and law-enforcement database search, and geo-mapping, which is the standard AVCC investigative feature set. The filing comes from the Eddy County Board of Commissioners. Because AVCC is a law-enforcement investigative tool, the operational user is almost certainly the Eddy County Sheriff's Office, though the form does not name a department. Eddy County, in southeastern New Mexico around Carlsbad, has about 62,000 residents. This is a confirmed AVCC subscription at the access tier. What the record does not show is the signed AVCC XML Addendum that would establish whether Eddy County feeds the national Public Safety Data Exchange, so its contributor status is suspected rather than confirmed. A records request for the executed LexisNexis agreement and addendum would settle it.

Santa Ana is one of California’s most immigrant-dense cities — roughly 310,000 residents, approximately 90% Latino, with an active Welcoming City policy that limits police cooperation with ICE. Despite those protections, the Santa Ana Police Department is a documented contributor to the Public Safety Data Exchange (PSDEX), a national law enforcement data-sharing network operated by LexisNexis. The confirmation comes from the Santa Ana City Clerk’s public document portal. A signed agreement — contract N-2023-294 — shows Santa Ana PD joined the Orange County Sheriff’s Department AVCC consortium as a sub-agency. The contract language is explicit: ‘Customer hereby agrees to contribute public safety information.’ The data contributed includes records from the department’s computer-aided dispatch system, records management system, and jail bookings. Santa Ana also held a separate contract directly with LexisNexis for Accurint for Law Enforcement Plus — an investigative research tool that gives officers access to LexisNexis’s full database of public and commercial records on individuals. Contract N-2023-294 had an expiration date of July 1, 2024. Whether Santa Ana renewed it is not yet confirmed — a public records request is pending. If renewed, the data pipeline remains active. If not, the city’s contributed data may still be in LexisNexis’s database under the irrevocable license terms of the original agreement.

The Austin Community College Police Department is a charter partner agency of the Austin Regional Intelligence Center (ARIC), the Central Texas fusion center whose Accurint Virtual Crime Center access is procured and managed by the Austin Police Department. Its membership is recorded in ARIC's Amended and Restated Interlocal Agreement, signed in 2024. Whether the department holds an individual AVCC seat is not established by that agreement: the 2023 AVCC procurement named only six partner agencies and this one was not among them, so its contribution status is unconfirmed pending the executed contract and seat list. As a campus police department inside a fusion center with commercial law enforcement data access, it is of note on the student and faculty data angle.

Miami Beach Police Department does not just participate in LexisNexis's Accurint Virtual Crime Center — it runs it for the entire state of Florida. MBPD is the Lead Contract Agency (LCA), a designation assigned by the Florida Department of Law Enforcement. Every other Florida law enforcement agency that joins the network does so by signing an interagency agreement with Miami Beach PD, not directly with LexisNexis. This is confirmed by contract, not inference. The AVCC Florida Addendum states: 'The Miami Beach Police Department has been designated as the LCA by the Florida Department of Law Enforcement for the LexisNexis Accurint Virtual Crime Center (AVCC) and will assume responsibility for ensuring compliance with the FBI Criminal Justice Information Services Security Policy for each Florida Customer Agency using AVCC.' As of the document date, 46 Florida agencies participate in the network, including every major urban police department and sheriff's office in the state. The full list was obtained via public records and includes Boca Raton, Fort Lauderdale, Fort Myers, Hialeah, Miami Gardens, Miramar, Orlando, Palm Beach County Sheriff, Tallahassee, and the Orange County Public Schools District Police, among others. The Florida addendum contains a key structural difference from the national PSDEX model: access to data contributed by Florida agencies is limited to other Florida agencies — not the full national PSDEX pool. LexisNexis, however, retains a 'paid up, irrevocable, worldwide, non-exclusive license' to use, adapt, compile, and create derivative works from all contributed data. A de-identified subset also flows to the LexisNexis Community Crime Map, which is publicly accessible. A second FOIA filed May 21, 2026 asks MBPD to identify which systems (CAD, RMS, jail booking) contribute to the network; whether 911 caller, victim, and witness data is included in the automated feed; and whether MBPD can audit other agencies' access to its contributed data.

The Tukwila Police Department, a small agency serving about 20,000 residents south of Seattle, is a confirmed PSDEX contributor. A signed contract in the agency’s public records confirms participation in the Accurint Virtual Crime Center and includes access to Jail Booking Search — meaning Tukwila’s booking data flows to LexisNexis alongside its crime records. Tukwila’s significance is its size. Like Lathrop, California — a city of about 28,000 also confirmed as a PSDEX contributor — Tukwila demonstrates that the PSDEX network reaches small community agencies, not just large urban departments. The LexisNexis account manager on the Tukwila contract is Elizabeth Marshall, covering the Pacific Northwest region. Her client list is a potential route to identifying other Washington State PSDEX participants. Washington State has the Keep Washington Working Act, which limits cooperation with federal immigration enforcement. Tukwila’s PSDEX contribution — including jail booking data — routes around those protections through the LexisNexis intermediary.

Arapahoe County Sheriff’s Office serves the south Denver metro — Aurora, Englewood, Centennial, Littleton, and unincorporated Arapahoe County — a population of about 650,000. Its representative Jared Rowlison served on the CISC Board of Directors, and the meeting minutes note he seconded the motion to approve N-DEx access codes — a detail that places him as an active participant in the governance of Colorado’s law enforcement data infrastructure. CISC — the Colorado Information Sharing Consortium — operates the LexisNexis PSDEX data warehouse for the state, confirmed directly by CISC’s Executive Director. Arapahoe County SO runs the Arapahoe County Detention Facility, which connects to Colorado’s Appriss VINE system. Whether that VINE contract contains a Risk Solutions clause — allowing booking data to flow to LexisNexis separately from the PSDEX pipeline — is an open question under investigation. Arapahoe County has no sanctuary protections. Aurora, the largest city in the county, was the site of high-profile federal immigration enforcement actions in 2025.

The Harris County Sheriff’s Office is the largest sheriff’s office in Texas and the third largest in the country, with about 5,100 employees serving a county of roughly 4.1 million people that includes the city of Houston. Its jail — the Harris County Jail — is one of the largest in the United States. No direct LexisNexis products have been confirmed for HCSO. Crash reports flow through TxDOT’s LexisNexis BuyCrash platform statewide, applying to HCSO as it does all Texas agencies, but BuyCrash is a report distribution tool rather than a PSDEX contribution mechanism. The significant open question involves the Texas VINE system. Texas VINE is managed statewide by the Texas Office of the Attorney General in partnership with Appriss, confirmed through Harris County DA office documents. The Harris County Jail feeds real-time booking data into this system. In Cook County, Illinois, a similar Appriss VINE contract was found to contain a ‘Risk Solutions’ clause allowing Appriss to share booking data with LexisNexis. If the Texas OAG contract contains the same clause, Harris County Jail booking data — covering every HCSO arrest resulting in custody — would flow to LexisNexis. A public records request to the Texas OAG for that contract is pending.

The Maplewood Police Department is one of the most thoroughly documented PSDEX contributors in this database — because the signed contract is a matter of public record and was obtained through a prior records request. The contract, signed January 3, 2025 by Maplewood’s City Manager, includes the full AVCC XML Addendum: a five-page agreement in which Maplewood agrees to contribute its police data to LexisNexis and grants the company a ‘paid up, irrevocable, worldwide, non-exclusive license’ to distribute that data to PSDEX customers. The data contributed covers crime reports, field investigations, citations, mugshots, and arrest records from Maplewood’s records management system. The annual cost is $6,000. One detail in the contract is worth highlighting: Maplewood’s City Manager initialed an optional provision opting out of sharing a de-identified, stripped-down subset of its data for public crime mapping. That opt-out is real — but it applies only to the public-facing crime map feed. The core PSDEX contribution, which goes to law enforcement subscribers including federal agencies, was not opted out of. Maplewood remains a full contributor to the PSDEX investigative database. Maplewood sits in Ramsey County, Minnesota. Minnesota was officially designated a sanctuary state by the Department of Homeland Security in May 2025. Ramsey County complied with fewer than 10% of ICE detainer requests — among the most protective counties in the state. Despite those protections, Maplewood’s contract grants LexisNexis an irrevocable license to share its police data with PSDEX subscribers. ICE holds its own federal subscription to LexisNexis products. The data flows around the sanctuary protections through a private intermediary.

The Hutto ISD Police Department is a charter partner agency of the Austin Regional Intelligence Center (ARIC), the Central Texas fusion center whose Accurint Virtual Crime Center access is procured and managed by the Austin Police Department. Its membership is recorded in ARIC's Amended and Restated Interlocal Agreement, signed in 2024. Whether the department holds an individual AVCC seat is not established by that agreement: the 2023 AVCC procurement named only six partner agencies and this one was not among them, so its contribution status is unconfirmed pending the executed contract and seat list. As a school district police department inside a fusion center with commercial law enforcement data access, it is a priority for the student-data angle.

The Bee Cave Police Department is a charter partner agency of the Austin Regional Intelligence Center (ARIC), the Central Texas fusion center whose Accurint Virtual Crime Center access is procured and managed by the Austin Police Department. Its membership is recorded in ARIC's Amended and Restated Interlocal Agreement, signed in 2024. Whether the department holds an individual AVCC seat is not established by that agreement: the 2023 AVCC procurement named only six partner agencies and this one was not among them, so its contribution status is unconfirmed pending the executed contract and seat list.

The New Haven Police Department uses a LexisNexis product for civilian police report requests, confirmed through the city’s official website, which directs the public to ‘LexisNexis® Request A Report’ for police report copies — noting explicitly that the system ‘is not owned/operated by the City of New Haven.’ This appears to be LexisNexis Coplogic — the civilian report purchasing and distribution product. New Haven has a longstanding sanctuary policy, predating many other Connecticut cities. It is Connecticut’s second-largest city and home to Yale University, with a significant immigrant population including undocumented residents. The fact that New Haven directs civilian report requests through a LexisNexis platform means that report data — including the names and addresses of civilians filing reports, and details of the incidents being reported — flows through LexisNexis infrastructure. This is a Coplogic-type product, not AVCC or PSDEX. Whether New Haven PD has any additional LexisNexis relationship — including a PSDEX contribution agreement — has not been confirmed. Connecticut’s FOI Act (CGS § 1-200) requires a four-business-day response.

The Boston Regional Intelligence Center — the fusion center serving Greater Boston and eastern Massachusetts — uses LexisNexis Accurint, confirmed through the EFF’s Atlas of Surveillance. The BRIC is a joint operation of the Boston Police Department, Massachusetts State Police, and federal partners including the FBI, and serves as the regional intelligence hub for law enforcement across eastern Massachusetts. Fusion centers like BRIC aggregate data from many contributing agencies and run analytical queries against investigative databases. An Accurint subscription at the fusion center level means that BRIC analysts can run records searches on individuals drawn from LexisNexis’s full database, including data contributed by PSDEX members across the country. The data flowing from local agencies in other states into PSDEX effectively becomes accessible to BRIC through this subscription. Massachusetts has sanctuary protections at both the state and city levels. Boston’s Trust Act limits police cooperation with ICE. Whether BRIC’s Accurint access includes a data contribution agreement — meaning Massachusetts law enforcement data flows back into PSDEX — has not been confirmed. A public records request to the Massachusetts Public Safety Division for the full Accurint contract would clarify the scope.

The Brown County Sheriff's Office (Wisconsin) holds an annual subscription to the LexisNexis Accurint Virtual Crime Center (AVCC). The county's March 2024 Paid Bills Report records a payment to LexisNexis Risk Data Management for "SHF-AVCC ANNUAL SERVICES" covering the service period February 1, 2024 through January 31, 2025, at an annual cost of $17,285.29 (invoice 1681157-20240229, paid by check #285843).

The St. Edward's University Police Department is a charter partner agency of the Austin Regional Intelligence Center (ARIC), the Central Texas fusion center whose Accurint Virtual Crime Center access is procured and managed by the Austin Police Department. Its membership is recorded in ARIC's Amended and Restated Interlocal Agreement, signed in 2024. Whether the department holds an individual AVCC seat is not established by that agreement: the 2023 AVCC procurement named only six partner agencies and this one was not among them, so its contribution status is unconfirmed pending the executed contract and seat list. As a private campus police department inside a fusion center with commercial law enforcement data access, it is of note on the student and faculty data angle.

The Fort Bend County Sheriff’s Office in Texas has a documented Accurint for Law Enforcement relationship going back to at least 2010, when a Schedule A contract was executed. That early contract confirms a long-standing LexisNexis relationship, though the specific product — Accurint for Law Enforcement — is an investigative access tool rather than the AVCC data contribution system. Fort Bend County is one of the fastest-growing counties in the United States, southwest of Houston, with about 900,000 residents and significant Latino and South Asian immigrant communities. The county seat is Richmond. The critical open question is whether Fort Bend County SO has since upgraded to an AVCC subscription with a data contribution addendum — a common progression as agencies expand their LexisNexis relationships. A public records request for any AVCC XML Addendum or PSDEX contribution agreement executed after 2015 would answer this. Texas has no sanctuary policies. TxDOT routes all Texas crash reports through LexisNexis BuyCrash, applying to Fort Bend County as it does all Texas agencies.

The Hays County Sheriff's Office is a charter partner agency of the Austin Regional Intelligence Center (ARIC), the Central Texas fusion center whose Accurint Virtual Crime Center access is procured and managed by the Austin Police Department. Its membership is recorded in ARIC's Amended and Restated Interlocal Agreement, signed in 2024. Whether the office holds an individual AVCC seat is not established by that agreement: the 2023 AVCC procurement named only six partner agencies and this one was not among them, so its contribution status is unconfirmed pending the executed contract and seat list.

Salem, Oregon’s police department began using LexisNexis’s Desk Officer Reporting System (DORS) in late 2024, replacing an in-house system it had built itself. The city paid LexisNexis $21,300 for the technology. DORS allows Salem residents to file police reports online at any time, from any device. Reports are routed through LexisNexis infrastructure before being reviewed by Salem PD staff. The previous in-house system had significant limitations; the new LexisNexis system allows photo and evidence uploads and reduces calls to the city’s dispatch center. Salem is the state capital of Oregon, which has one of the oldest sanctuary laws in the country (ORS 181A.820, in effect since 1987). Whether Salem PD’s DORS relationship with LexisNexis extends to investigative database access (Accurint) or data contribution (AVCC/PSDEX) is not yet known.

The Firestone Police Department in Colorado uses LexisNexis’s Accurint Virtual Crime Center, confirmed through its own annual report and the EFF’s Atlas of Surveillance. Firestone is a small but fast-growing town in Weld County in northern Colorado. Firestone’s confirmation from an annual report — rather than just from the Atlas or advocacy sources — is notable. Agencies that voluntarily disclose AVCC use in their own public documents are providing a different class of confirmation than secondary sources. The annual report mention, however brief, constitutes self-disclosure. Weld County has historically been among the least sanctuary-protective jurisdictions in Colorado, with the county itself resisting VALE Act implementation. Firestone has no sanctuary protections. Colorado’s statewide VALE Act applies, but the private intermediary structure of CISC/PSDEX means the statute’s reach is limited. Whether Firestone is a PSDEX data contributor or solely an AVCC subscriber has not been confirmed at the addendum level.

Brighton is a city of about 40,000 people in Adams County, north of Denver. Its police department representative Frank Acosta served on the CISC Board of Directors — he made the formal motion to accept the consent agenda at the January 2021 CISC board meeting, placing Brighton PD at the governance table for the LexisNexis PSDEX data warehouse in Colorado. CISC — the Colorado Information Sharing Consortium — confirmed in a public records response that it operates the PSDEX data warehouse on LexisNexis’s behalf. The 124 agencies connected to CISC, 87 of which actively mirror booking and release data, include agencies across the Denver metro area. Brighton PD, as a board member, is almost certainly among the contributing agencies. Adams County includes a significant immigrant population, particularly in Commerce City and surrounding communities. Colorado has VALE Act sanctuary protections, but the private-company intermediary structure of PSDEX puts this data flow outside the statute’s reach.

The Pflugerville ISD Police Department is a charter partner agency of the Austin Regional Intelligence Center (ARIC), the Central Texas fusion center whose Accurint Virtual Crime Center access is procured and managed by the Austin Police Department. Its membership is recorded in ARIC's Amended and Restated Interlocal Agreement, signed in 2024. Whether the department holds an individual AVCC seat is not established by that agreement: the 2023 AVCC procurement named only six partner agencies and this one was not among them, so its contribution status is unconfirmed pending the executed contract and seat list. As a school district police department inside a fusion center with commercial law enforcement data access, it is a priority for the student-data angle.

The Orange County Sheriff’s Department serves as the lead agency for a law enforcement data-sharing consortium that covers more than 50 agencies across Orange County, California. The consortium operates through LexisNexis’s Accurint Virtual Crime Center (AVCC) and the Public Safety Data Exchange (PSDEX) — a national database that compiles law enforcement records from agencies across the country. As consortium lead, OCSD holds the master contract with LexisNexis and other OC agencies join as sub-agencies under that agreement. Confirmed sub-agencies include the Santa Ana Police Department, CSU Fullerton Police, and UC Irvine Police, with more than 50 additional agencies listed in a 23-page Schedule A attached to the contract. The contract is administered through ILJAOC — the Integrated Law and Justice Agency of Orange County — which handles billing on behalf of member agencies. The contract language includes two clauses worth noting. First, an irrevocable license clause: once an agency contributes data, that license cannot be revoked. Second, a third-party beneficiary clause stating that ‘other PSDEX customers are intended to be third-party beneficiaries’ of contributed data. This means that any agency or federal entity with access to PSDEX — including ICE — can query data that OC agencies have contributed. Orange County includes some of California’s most immigrant-dense communities. Santa Ana, the county seat, is approximately 90% Latino. California’s statewide sanctuary law (SB54) limits how agencies share information with immigration enforcement — but researchers and advocates have documented that data flowing through LexisNexis reaches ICE through a private-sector intermediary that those laws don’t directly regulate.

The Cape Coral Police Department contributes local police data to LexisNexis's Public Safety Data Exchange (PSDEX) through the Accurint Virtual Crime Center. Cape Coral accesses the platform as a sub-agency under a Florida statewide contract managed by the Miami Beach Police Department, which serves as the state's Lead Contract Agency for AVCC. Cape Coral's status as a data contributor is documented in a September 2020 City of Fort Myers council agenda, which named Cape Coral PD and the Lee County Sheriff's Office as Florida agencies already providing data to LexisNexis. Florida has no sanctuary law — the state's SB 168 (2019) prohibits local sanctuary policies — so unlike agencies in sanctuary jurisdictions, Cape Coral's participation does not bypass a local legal protection. The investigative significance is instead the routine, automated flow of a Florida municipal police department's records into a private database accessible to federal agencies. A public records request for the technical specifications of that data feed was filed in May 2026.

The Frederick County Sheriff’s Office in Maryland uses LexisNexis’s Accurint Virtual Crime Center, confirmed through the EFF’s Atlas of Surveillance. Frederick County is in western Maryland, north of Washington DC, with about 280,000 residents. Maryland is politically complex on immigration. Montgomery County and Prince George’s County — both in the Washington DC suburbs — have sanctuary policies. Frederick County, farther west, has no such protections and has historically been more cooperative with immigration enforcement. The Frederick County Sheriff’s Office’s AVCC subscription places its data in LexisNexis’s investigative network, accessible to federal agencies. Whether Frederick County SO is a PSDEX data contributor or solely an investigative subscriber has not been confirmed. Maryland’s Public Information Act (MPIA) has a 30-day response period — longer than most states — but a records request for the full AVCC contract would clarify both questions.

The Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department (LVMPD, or Metro) is Nevada's largest law enforcement agency, serving Las Vegas and the unincorporated Clark County area — roughly 2.7 million people. It runs its own detention centers including the Clark County Detention Center, one of the largest jails in the western US. No LexisNexis products have been confirmed for LVMPD. Its crime map is its own ArcGIS-based Open Data Portal (opendata.lvmpd.com), not the LexisNexis Community Crime Map. It does not appear on the LexisNexis BuyCrash crash report portal — crash reports must be requested in person or by mail. No Accurint or PSDEX contributing agreement has been found. LVMPD does have a 287(g) agreement with ICE, meaning it directly cooperates with immigration enforcement without needing LexisNexis as an intermediary. Its Real-Time Crime Center uses gunshot detection, facial recognition, automated license plate readers, and social media monitoring — none of which appear to involve LexisNexis. The one unresolved thread: Nevada has a statewide VINE victim notification system managed by the Nevada Attorney General's office through Appriss. In other states, similar Appriss contracts contain a clause that allows Appriss to share real-time jail booking data with LexisNexis. If Nevada's contract has this clause, Clark County Detention Center booking data (from every LVMPD arrest resulting in custody) could flow to LexisNexis. A public records request to the Nevada AG's office is the next step.

The Clear Creek County Sheriff's Office (Georgetown, CO) is a confirmed member of the Colorado Information Sharing Consortium (CISC), joining via the standard CISC Member Agency Addendum and Joinder reviewed by LNRS Legal on February 28, 2024, with board approval September 3, 2024. Clear Creek is a small mountain county of approximately 9,700 residents west of Denver, with 22 sworn deputies. At $25 per sworn officer annually, membership costs the county $550 per fiscal year. CISC has secured grant and state funding covering fixed AVCC program costs through 2030. The CISC addendum uses a three-option license structure that is the first such variant documented in this project's records. Section (a) automatically authorizes data sharing among CISC member agencies. Section (b) — which would expand sharing to the full national PSDEX network — was NOT initialed by Clear Creek. Section (c), authorizing a de-identified data feed to LexisNexis Community Crime Map third parties, was initialed by Lt. David Straley. This is significant: the contract explicitly describes the CISC Data Warehouse as 'a PSDEX private container database provided by LN,' confirming all CISC member agencies are within LexisNexis infrastructure regardless of whether they initial §b. Colorado HB 19-1124 prohibits state and local officials from disclosing PII to ICE without a judicial warrant. Clear Creek's data contribution to the CISC Data Warehouse, which sits within LexisNexis's PSDEX infrastructure, creates a structural bypass risk. The addendum contains no audit rights: the agency has no contractual mechanism to verify whether its data remains isolated within the CISC container or is accessible to other PSDEX customers, including federal entities.

The Hillsborough County Sheriff’s Office in Florida uses LexisNexis Coplogic Solutions’ Desk Officer Reporting System (DORS) for online civilian crime reporting. Sheriff Chad Chronister described the system in an October 2024 profile in OFFICER magazine, noting the agency’s Online Reporting Unit processes over 1,400 reports and street checks per month and saves more than 2,000 officer hours monthly. DORS allows Hillsborough County residents to file non-emergency crime reports online. Those reports flow through LexisNexis infrastructure before being reviewed by agency staff and entered into the records management system. Hillsborough County (Tampa metro, about 1.5 million residents) is one of Florida’s largest counties. Whether HCSO also has a PSDEX contributing agreement or Accurint investigative subscription has not been confirmed.

Spalding County Sheriff's Office runs the LexisNexis Community Crime Map, maintaining an automated feed of its crime records into the LexisNexis crime-data-sharing system. Spalding County sits south of metro Atlanta, with the county seat at Griffin, population about 67,000. Community Crime Map is the public side of the same platform family as the Accurint Virtual Crime Center, and LexisNexis sets up a direct automated feed from each participating agency's records. A CCM feed by itself does not confirm an AVCC subscription or contribution to the national Public Safety Data Exchange, so Spalding County is a suspected rather than confirmed AVCC participant. A records request for the office's LexisNexis agreements would clarify whether the feed reaches AVCC and PSDEX.

The Downers Grove Police Department in Illinois is a confirmed AVCC user. A public records request to the department returned documents specifically referencing a PSDEX addendum — which the agency evaluated for release before withholding it. The existence of a PSDEX addendum being withheld is itself confirmation that one exists. The LexisNexis account manager on the Downers Grove relationship is Wyatt Erwin. Downers Grove is a village of about 50,000 residents in DuPage County, in the western Chicago suburbs. Illinois enacted its TRUST Act in 2017, restricting law enforcement cooperation with immigration enforcement. DuPage County has historically been less cooperative with sanctuary policies than Cook County or the City of Chicago. The PSDEX addendum withholding is particularly noteworthy. When an agency identifies a PSDEX addendum in response to a records request and then withholds it — rather than simply stating no such document exists — it confirms the document’s existence while declining to disclose its terms. That is a meaningful distinction. An appeal or subsequent request specifically citing this precedent could unlock the addendum. A second FOIA to the department produced a direct written admission: “Yes, we contribute police records data to LexisNexis AVCC.” The response also confirmed the department has no mechanism to audit how other agencies use its data and no way to restrict what it contributes. In 2024, Downers Grove signed an agreement to replace its Records Management System with Axon Records — a transition that may affect its PSDEX contribution pipeline.

The San Leandro Police Department in Alameda County, California uses LexisNexis’s Accurint investigative platform, confirmed through the EFF’s Atlas of Surveillance. San Leandro is a city of about 90,000 residents on the eastern shore of San Francisco Bay, bordering Oakland. Alameda County is one of the most significant jurisdictions in this investigation. Alameda County Sheriff’s Office is a confirmed PSDEX member — it is a strong-signal contributor to LexisNexis’s PSDEX database. San Leandro PD’s Accurint subscription, within the same county, raises the question of whether San Leandro is also part of the Alameda County AVCC arrangement or operating an independent subscriber relationship. California’s SB54 sanctuary law applies throughout Alameda County. San Leandro itself has a welcoming city resolution. Whether San Leandro PD’s Accurint subscription includes a PSDEX contribution addendum is not confirmed. A public records request under California’s CPRA would answer this within 10 business days.

The University of Texas Police Department in Austin is a partner agency of the Austin Regional Intelligence Center, the Central Texas fusion center whose Accurint Virtual Crime Center access is procured and managed by the Austin Police Department under a 2023 cooperative contract with LexisNexis. A shared platform run for the consortium by a managing agency is a strong signal that partner records reach the LexisNexis Public Safety Data Exchange. The contribution addendum for the department is not yet in the public record.

The Avondale Police Department in Arizona responded to a MuckRock public records request with documents confirming a LexisNexis contract: a base agreement (Contract 13525C, described as ‘Accurint dba LexisNexis APPLICATION AND AGREEMENT’), annual amendments running from 2018 through 2021, renewal letters from 2023 and 2024, and a separate addendum identified as Addendum 19-077C. The base contract and annual amendments confirm a long-running investigative access relationship. But Addendum 19-077C is the document that could determine whether Avondale is a PSDEX contributor. Comparable addendum documents from other agencies — most clearly, Clear Creek County, Colorado — contain a Section II titled ‘Public Safety Data Exchange Database’ with explicit PSDEX contribution obligations. If Avondale’s 19-077C contains the same section, its status should be upgraded to Confirmed Contributor. Avondale is a city of about 80,000 people in the western Phoenix metro, in Maricopa County. The MuckRock FOIA documents have been returned; retrieving Addendum 19-077C from the case file and checking its Section II language is the immediate next step.

Athens-Clarke County Police Department partnered with LexisNexis Risk Solutions to run the Community Crime Map, maintaining an automated feed of its crime records into the LexisNexis crime-data-sharing system. Athens-Clarke is a consolidated city-county government in Georgia, outside metro Atlanta, population about 128,000. Community Crime Map shares the platform family of the Accurint Virtual Crime Center, with LexisNexis establishing a direct feed from the agency's records system. The CCM partnership alone does not confirm an AVCC subscription or contribution to the national Public Safety Data Exchange, so Athens-Clarke is a suspected rather than confirmed AVCC participant. A records request would clarify the full scope of the agency's LexisNexis agreements.

The San Antonio Police Department uses LexisNexis’s Community Crime Map, confirmed through three independent sources: an official SAPD Nextdoor post from February 2018 that explicitly linked to ‘the LexisNexis Community Crime Map’ as a city resource; a December 2024 KSAT news investigation that cited ‘a community crime map that San Antonio police use’ and attributed it to LexisNexis; and the University of Texas at San Antonio’s public safety page, which states that CCM ‘helps UTSAPD and SAPD create awareness about local crime.’ The SAPD CCM relationship has been active since at least early 2018 and remains confirmed as of December 2024 — a continuous seven-year-plus data feed of San Antonio crime incidents to LexisNexis. CCM requires an automated sync from SAPD’s records management system, meaning San Antonio crime data flows to LexisNexis on an ongoing basis. Two Texas statewide pipelines also apply: TxDOT routes all Texas crash reports through LexisNexis BuyCrash, meaning SAPD traffic collision reports flow to LexisNexis through the state DOT. And the Texas VINE system — managed by the Texas AG’s office through Appriss — covers all 254 Texas county jails, including the Bexar County Jail where SAPD arrestees are held. Whether SAPD has a PSDEX data contribution agreement on top of its CCM relationship has not been confirmed. Texas has no sanctuary policies. San Antonio is approximately 150 miles from the US-Mexico border, making federal immigration enforcement one of the more active uses of PSDEX data in the region.

The Lakeway Police Department is a charter partner agency of the Austin Regional Intelligence Center (ARIC), the Central Texas fusion center whose Accurint Virtual Crime Center access is procured and managed by the Austin Police Department. Its membership is recorded in ARIC's Amended and Restated Interlocal Agreement, signed in 2024. Whether the department holds an individual AVCC seat is not established by that agreement: the 2023 AVCC procurement named only six partner agencies and this one was not among them, so its contribution status is unconfirmed pending the executed contract and seat list.

The federal government's standard purchasing vehicle for LexisNexis (GSA Schedule GS-00F-178DA, held by LexisNexis Special Services Inc.) bundles the AVCC/PSDEX contributory addendum, the same give-to-get data-sharing contract local police sign. Any federal agency can acquire Accurint, the Virtual Crime Center, and PSDEX through this routine federal schedule. The document is a price list and terms template, so it does not by itself show that a specific federal agency contributes data; it documents the federal access and acquisition channel.

The Canadian County Sheriff’s Office in Oklahoma appears in the EFF’s Atlas of Surveillance as an Accurint Virtual Crime Center user, sourced from an Oklahoma City council document dated December 2023. That same source document simultaneously lists the Yukon Police Department — a city within Canadian County — with an identical Atlas entry. The fact that both agencies appear in a single Oklahoma City council document is significant. It suggests the Canadian County Sheriff’s Office may be the regional lead agency for a Canadian County AVCC arrangement, with Yukon PD and potentially other county municipalities — Mustang, El Reno, Piedmont — participating as sub-agencies. This would mirror the consortium model confirmed in California, Florida, and Minnesota, where a county-level agency holds the master contract and cities join under it. Canadian County sits directly west of Oklahoma City, covering about 150,000 residents. Oklahoma has no sanctuary policies. A public records request to the Sheriff’s Office for its AVCC agreement and any interagency agreements covering Yukon PD and other county agencies would be the highest-value single filing for this county.

The Williamson County Sheriff's Office is a charter partner agency of the Austin Regional Intelligence Center (ARIC), the Central Texas fusion center whose Accurint Virtual Crime Center access is procured and managed by the Austin Police Department. Its membership is recorded in ARIC's Amended and Restated Interlocal Agreement, signed in 2024. Whether the office holds an individual AVCC seat is not established by that agreement: the 2023 AVCC procurement named only six partner agencies and this one was not among them, so its contribution status is unconfirmed pending the executed contract and seat list.

The Manor Police Department is a charter partner agency of the Austin Regional Intelligence Center (ARIC), the Central Texas fusion center whose Accurint Virtual Crime Center access is procured and managed by the Austin Police Department. Its membership is recorded in ARIC's Amended and Restated Interlocal Agreement, signed in 2024. Whether the department holds an individual AVCC seat is not established by that agreement: the 2023 AVCC procurement named only six partner agencies and this one was not among them, so its contribution status is unconfirmed pending the executed contract and seat list.

The Duluth Police Department subscribes to the LexisNexis Accurint Virtual Crime Center. Two of its agreements appear in the public record, and neither is signed. The 2020 agreement, attached to city council resolution 20-0345R, contains the read-only "NO DATA CONTRIBUTIONS TO PSDEX" version of the AVCC XML Addendum. That version omits the data-contribution obligation and the irrevocable license. The 2022 renewal package, dated December 22, 2022, contains the standard version of the AVCC XML Addendum, which includes the Section I.2 obligation to contribute data and the Section II.1 irrevocable, worldwide license. That copy is also unsigned, with the originating agency identifier left blank and the third-party data election uninitialed. At the January 2026 council meeting, Police Chief Ceynowa told the council that the department does not upload its data to LexisNexis, has no interface to do so, and only draws data out. What the public record shows is two unsigned documents and a statement on the record: an older form that excludes contribution, a newer form that requires it, and a chief who says, as of January 2026, that the department does not contribute. The signed terms in force are not in the public record.

Cook County operates the largest single-site jail in the United States, housing around 5,500 people on any given day. Every person arrested by the Chicago Police Department and held in custody passes through this facility. Since 2015, the Cook County State’s Attorney’s Office has contracted with a company called Appriss to run VINE — a victim notification service that alerts registered users when someone is released from jail. That contract contains a clause, known as the ‘Risk Solutions’ clause, that allows Appriss to share real-time jail booking data with LexisNexis Risk Solutions. LexisNexis packages that data into its Accurint investigative database and sells access to federal agencies. ICE held a $22.1 million contract with LexisNexis from 2021 through early 2026 that included access to Accurint. A public records request filed by Just Futures Law found that ICE’s Chicago field office ran over 13,000 LexisNexis searches in just six months in 2021, producing more than 1,800 civil immigration enforcement reports. This matters because Cook County is a sanctuary jurisdiction — it operates under both the Illinois TRUST Act and its own ICE detainer ordinance, which are supposed to limit cooperation with immigration enforcement. The Appriss-LexisNexis pipeline bypasses those protections entirely. The data doesn’t travel from Cook County to ICE directly; it travels through two private companies first, which means the county’s sanctuary policies don’t apply. In July 2022, the Cook County Board held the first public hearing of its kind in the country to address this issue. Despite testimony from immigrant rights advocates and legal experts, the board voted to renew the Appriss contract. It was renewed again in October 2024. Appriss provided a written assurance that Cook County data would not be shared with ICE through LexisNexis — but advocates note there is no legal mechanism to enforce that assurance. For comparison, New York City negotiated its Appriss contract without the Risk Solutions clause, proving it can be removed without losing the victim notification service.

The Fort Myers Police Department joined LexisNexis’s Public Safety Data Exchange in September 2020 through an interagency agreement brokered by the Miami Beach Police Department, which serves as the lead contract agency for Florida. The Fort Myers City Council approved the arrangement on September 21, 2020. The resolution language is unambiguous: the agreement covers ‘access to LexisNexis Accurint Virtual Crime Center (AVCC) and the LexisNexis Public Safety Data Exchange Database (PSDEX).’ Fort Myers pays $19,950 per year. The contract package attached to the council vote includes the Florida-specific AVCC addendum and a Schedule A listing the terms of data contribution. Fort Myers is in Lee County on Florida’s Gulf Coast. Florida has no sanctuary policies, and Lee County has historically cooperated actively with ICE. The significance of Fort Myers’ record is primarily its documentation value: the council resolution is one of the clearest public confirmations of PSDEX participation we have found anywhere in the country, naming both AVCC and PSDEX explicitly in the approval language.

The Sacramento County Sheriff’s Office is one of the clearest cases in California of data flowing to LexisNexis on an automated, ongoing basis. The sheriff’s own website states it plainly: ‘The Sacramento County Sheriff’s Office contracts with LexisNexis to provide crime reporting, community awareness, and data transparency to the public. The Sheriff’s Office uploads completed crime reports to LexisNexis on a daily basis.’ Beyond the daily crime report upload, Sacramento County SO is believed to be the lead agency for the Central Valley Information Sharing System (CVISS) — a regional network that connects law enforcement agencies across the Sacramento Valley and Central Valley. CVISS originally ran on an IBM software platform called COPLINK, but in 2024 it transitioned to LexisNexis’s Accurint Virtual Crime Center. That transition, confirmed when Elk Grove PD’s City Council voted to approve the change in July 2024, means the participating agencies — originally 13 founding members including Sacramento PD, Placer County SO, and multiple Sacramento-area cities — are now contributing their data to LexisNexis’s PSDEX network. As the likely lead agency holding the master contract, Sacramento County SO is the hub through which CVISS member agencies’ data flows to LexisNexis. California’s SB54 sanctuary law applies, but it does not restrict data sharing with private companies. A public records request for the full AVCC contract and CVISS member list is a high priority.

Mesa County Sheriff’s Office has two independent lines of confirmation placing it at the center of LexisNexis’s PSDEX network in Colorado — making it one of the most strongly evidenced agencies in this database that has not yet produced a signed contract document. First, former Mesa County Sheriff Matt Lewis served on the CISC Board of Directors, confirmed through January 2021 board meeting minutes. CISC operates the LexisNexis PSDEX data warehouse for Colorado. Second — and more directly — Matt Lewis is named on LexisNexis’s own PSDEX Advisory Committee page on the LexisNexis Special Services website. The PSDEX Advisory Committee is the national governance body for the PSDEX system itself. A sitting county sheriff serving on that committee is as close to a self-confirmation of active participation as exists short of a signed contract. Mesa County SO serves the Grand Junction area in western Colorado, about 155,000 residents. Colorado has VALE Act sanctuary protections, but neither Mesa County nor Grand Junction has local sanctuary policies.

The Sunset Valley Police Department is a charter partner agency of the Austin Regional Intelligence Center (ARIC), the Central Texas fusion center whose Accurint Virtual Crime Center access is procured and managed by the Austin Police Department. Its membership is recorded in ARIC's Amended and Restated Interlocal Agreement, signed in 2024. Whether the department holds an individual AVCC seat is not established by that agreement: the 2023 AVCC procurement named only six partner agencies and this one was not among them, so its contribution status is unconfirmed pending the executed contract and seat list.

The San Diego Police Department uses LexisNexis eCrash for traffic collision report distribution, confirmed through the city’s own website: sandiego.gov directs the public to ‘Submit an online request through LexisNexis eCrash’ for traffic collision reports. eCrash is a LexisNexis Coplogic product, meaning San Diego PD crash data flows through LexisNexis infrastructure. eCrash is a report distribution product — it gives members of the public, insurance companies, and attorneys a way to buy copies of crash reports online. It is distinct from the AVCC/PSDEX system, which involves contributing police data to a shared investigative database. Whether San Diego PD also has an AVCC contribution agreement has not been confirmed. San Diego sits on the US-Mexico border, making it one of the highest-sensitivity jurisdictions in this investigation. The Georgetown Law ‘American Dragnet’ report (2022) documented that ICE accessed California driver records through LexisNexis despite state privacy laws. San Diego PD participates in ARJIS — its own regional data-sharing consortium — which is separate from LexisNexis AVCC. California’s SB54 sanctuary law applies.

The High Point Police Department in North Carolina uses LexisNexis’s Community Crime Map, confirmed through the city’s official website, which describes it as ‘a public crime map that allows law enforcement to share selected crime data with the public.’ The city’s description notes that CCM ‘goes beyond crime mapping by automatically alerting the public about recent crime activity,’ a feature that requires an automated, ongoing feed of incident data from High Point PD’s records management system to LexisNexis. High Point is the fifth-largest city in North Carolina, with about 114,000 residents in Guilford County. Both High Point PD and neighboring Greensboro PD — which also uses CCM and has additionally been confirmed as an Accurint for Law Enforcement subscriber via Atlas of Surveillance — use LexisNexis products within the same county. This pattern suggests either a Guilford County-level procurement relationship or a Piedmont Triad regional adoption across multiple departments simultaneously. North Carolina law prohibits sanctuary designations. There are no legal barriers to High Point PD data reaching federal agencies through LexisNexis.

Grand Valley State University Police is a participating member of a five-agency western Michigan consortium that pays for the LexisNexis Accurint Virtual Crime Center through the Ottawa County Sheriff's Office. Under a December 2025 cost-allocation agreement, the university's police department gets access to the Accurint Virtual Crime Center, Accurint for Law Enforcement, and LexisNexis crash and citation reporting through the Sheriff's master contract and reimburses the county for its share, set by its 21 sworn officers at about $3,600 in the first year. The inclusion of a campus police force places university policing inside the same commercial data pipeline as the surrounding municipal agencies. The agreement governs access and billing, not data contribution. Whether university police records flow into the national Public Safety Data Exchange depends on the Sheriff's master Accurint contract and addendum, which a records request would surface.

The Holland Department of Public Safety is a participating member of a five-agency western Michigan consortium that pays for the LexisNexis Accurint Virtual Crime Center through the Ottawa County Sheriff's Office. Under a cost-allocation agreement in a December 2025 Grand Haven council packet, Holland gets access to the Accurint Virtual Crime Center, Accurint for Law Enforcement, and LexisNexis crash and citation reporting through the Sheriff's master contract, and reimburses the county for its share. Holland's share is set by its 59 sworn officers, the second largest in the group, at about $10,200 in the first year. The agreement covers cost-sharing and access. It does not include the contribution addendum that would show whether Holland's records flow into the national Public Safety Data Exchange. That turns on the Sheriff's master Accurint contract, which a records request would surface.

El Segundo Police Department is a confirmed LexisNexis Accurint Virtual Crime Center subscriber and has signed a separate LexisNexis agreement that authorizes its police reports to flow into a shared pool other agencies can access. The department's AVCC access comes through a regional arrangement. Neighboring Hawthorne hosts the shared public safety network and sublicenses the Accurint Virtual Crime Center to El Segundo, alongside Mark43 records management and the LexisNexis Desk Officer Reporting System. A second contract, signed directly with LexisNexis Coplogic in 2023, gives LexisNexis the exclusive right to sell El Segundo's crash reports and authorizes the department to contribute its reports to a participating-agency database in exchange for access to other agencies' reports. The agreement lets LexisNexis keep those reports after the contract ends. What the documents do not show is the AVCC contribution addendum that would confirm whether El Segundo feeds the national Public Safety Data Exchange. That distinction, between using Accurint and feeding it, turns on a document that is not yet public. A records request for the AVCC addendum would settle it.

The Oklahoma City Police Department has subscribed to LexisNexis’s Accurint Virtual Crime Center since April 2014. The department contributes local police data to a centralized AVCC warehouse shared among several contiguous agencies in the Oklahoma City consortium. In April 2026, the city council renewed the subscription for $165,608.82 and simultaneously approved Amendment No. 1, which explicitly restricts access to OKC-contributed data to authorized consortium members only, prohibiting its disclosure or distribution to any entity outside the consortium. The amendment suggests the standard AVCC contract terms allow broader data sharing — OKC added a restriction that the baseline agreement does not include by default. The renewal was retroactive to January 1, 2026, meaning the contract was already in effect for nearly four months before council voted on it.

The Texas State University Police Department is a charter partner agency of the Austin Regional Intelligence Center (ARIC), the Central Texas fusion center whose Accurint Virtual Crime Center access is procured and managed by the Austin Police Department. Its membership is recorded in ARIC's Amended and Restated Interlocal Agreement, signed in 2024. Whether the department holds an individual AVCC seat is not established by that agreement: the 2023 AVCC procurement named only six partner agencies and this one was not among them, so its contribution status is unconfirmed pending the executed contract and seat list. As a campus police department inside a fusion center with commercial law enforcement data access, it is of note on the student and faculty data angle.

The Cedar Park Police Department is a charter partner agency of the Austin Regional Intelligence Center (ARIC), the Central Texas fusion center whose Accurint Virtual Crime Center access is procured and managed by the Austin Police Department. Its membership is recorded in ARIC's Amended and Restated Interlocal Agreement, signed in 2024. Whether the department holds an individual AVCC seat is not established by that agreement: the 2023 AVCC procurement named only six partner agencies and this one was not among them, so its contribution status is unconfirmed pending the executed contract and seat list.

Jefferson County Sheriff’s Office serves the western Denver suburbs — Lakewood, Arvada, Golden, Wheat Ridge, and unincorporated Jefferson County — a population of about 580,000. Its representative Dean Davis served on the CISC Board of Directors, confirmed through January 2021 meeting minutes. CISC — the Colorado Information Sharing Consortium — operates the LexisNexis PSDEX data warehouse for Colorado, handling data from 124 agencies across the state. Board membership means Jefferson County SO is one of the agencies governing that infrastructure. Colorado has VALE Act sanctuary protections statewide, but the CISC/PSDEX route passes through LexisNexis as a private intermediary, putting the data flow outside the reach of state sanctuary law. Jefferson County SO runs the Jefferson County Jail, which connects to Colorado’s Appriss VINE system. Whether Colorado’s VINE contract includes a Risk Solutions clause — which in Cook County, Illinois allows Appriss to share jail booking data with LexisNexis — is an open question.

The Texas Department of Public Safety entered into a five-year contract for the LexisNexis Accurint Virtual Crime Center on May 10, 2022, confirmed through Texas SmartBuy — the state’s procurement transparency portal. DPS is Texas’s statewide law enforcement agency, overseeing the Texas Highway Patrol, Texas Rangers, Criminal Investigations Division, and the Texas Fusion Center. A DPS AVCC contract is significant beyond the agency itself. When a state-level law enforcement agency holds an AVCC contract, it frequently functions as a gateway for smaller agencies — allowing city and county departments to access or contribute through the state contract vehicle rather than negotiating individual agreements with LexisNexis. Whether Texas DPS’s five-year AVCC contract is a standalone investigative subscription or a consortium vehicle through which other Texas agencies participate is an open question. Texas has no sanctuary policies. DPS manages the Texas Fusion Center in Austin, which aggregates intelligence from hundreds of local agencies. Whether that intelligence flows into PSDEX as part of DPS’s AVCC arrangement would be material to understanding the full scope of the contract.

The Kyle Police Department is a charter partner agency of the Austin Regional Intelligence Center (ARIC), the Central Texas fusion center whose Accurint Virtual Crime Center access is procured and managed by the Austin Police Department. Its membership is recorded in ARIC's Amended and Restated Interlocal Agreement, signed in 2024. Whether the department holds an individual AVCC seat is not established by that agreement: the 2023 AVCC procurement named only six partner agencies and this one was not among them, so its contribution status is unconfirmed pending the executed contract and seat list.

The Baltimore Police Department has been using LexisNexis’s Desk Officer Reporting System (DORS) since 2012 to allow residents to file non-emergency crime reports online, 24 hours a day. The system automatically routes those reports into BPD’s records management system. DORS is a product of LexisNexis Coplogic Solutions. When a resident files a report through the BPD portal, that report — including details about the incident, the person filing it, and any witnesses or other parties — flows through LexisNexis infrastructure before landing in BPD’s system. By 2022, BPD was receiving over 5,300 online reports annually through this system and had saved an estimated $268,600 in officer time. Whether BPD also uses LexisNexis for investigative data access (Accurint for Law Enforcement) or is a PSDEX data contributor (AVCC/PSDEX) has not yet been confirmed. A public records request is warranted.

The Oxnard Police Department uses LexisNexis Accurint, confirmed through the EFF’s Atlas of Surveillance. Oxnard is a city of about 210,000 residents in Ventura County, northwest of Los Angeles — one of California’s most agricultural counties, with a large Latino farmworker population. Oxnard is a sanctuary city, and California’s SB54 sanctuary law applies statewide. Ventura County itself has no confirmed LexisNexis consortium, unlike neighboring Los Angeles County (where LAPD has a BuyCrash relationship) or San Bernardino County (confirmed AVCC consortium lead). Oxnard’s Accurint use appears to be an independent subscription rather than part of a county consortium. Whether Oxnard PD has an AVCC data contribution agreement — which would mean its crime records flow into PSDEX and are accessible to ICE through LexisNexis’s federal contracts — has not been confirmed. Given Oxnard’s sanctuary status and its large immigrant community, that question carries particular weight.
