Needs Investigation

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.
