How to use this page
Documents are organized by category. Click a category tab to filter. Use “All” to browse everything. Click any document title to read it in full. Use the tip line to submit records we don’t have yet.
- Contributing Agency Agreements
- Signed contracts, Schedule A addenda, and AVCC XML Addendums in which a law enforcement agency formally agrees to contribute data to PSDEX. These contain the specific legal language — irrevocable licenses, data contribution obligations — that confirm an agency is feeding data to LexisNexis. Start here.
- Non-Contributing Agency Agreements
- Documents for agencies that have explicitly opted out or hold read-only access — including "NO DATA CONTRIBUTIONS" addenda and contracts limited to querying only. Important context for understanding who resisted the system and how.
- Public Safety Policies
- Department-level policies on data sharing, surveillance, and LexisNexis use. Useful for identifying agencies whose published policies may conflict with their documented data-sharing behavior — a key signal of sanctuary bypass.
- Audit Records
- Internal records of who accessed PSDEX data and how. Multiple public records requests indicate that agencies cannot audit this once data enters the system — which is why this tab may remain empty.
- City Council Meetings
- City and county council packets, votes, and resolutions approving or discussing LexisNexis contracts. Often the only public record of when and how a jurisdiction entered the PSDEX network.
- Law Enforcement Consortiums
- Documents from AVCC/PSDEX consortium bodies — governance minutes, member-agency joinder agreements, and inter-agency MOUs. Consortiums are regional networks where a lead agency holds the master contract and smaller agencies join through joinder agreements. These records often name member agencies not discoverable any other way.
- Inter-Agency MOUs
- Memoranda of Understanding, joinder agreements, and inter-agency contracts that define the legal structure of data sharing between agencies and consortiums. These establish what flows where and under what terms.
- Integrations with Vendors
- Technical and contractual documentation of how LexisNexis connects to other law enforcement systems — RMS, CAD, VINE, N-DEx. These integrations are the on-ramps: how data leaves local agency systems and enters the PSDEX pipeline.
- State Cooperative Documents
- Statewide cooperative purchasing contracts that let any state government entity procure LexisNexis products without a separate competitive bid. These dramatically expand the number of agencies in the system, often without a local council vote.
- Data Access
- Documents describing who has access to PSDEX data and under what terms — subscriber agreements, access logs, and records identifying which federal, military, or commercial entities are permitted to query the system.
City and county council packets, votes, and resolutions approving or discussing LexisNexis contracts. Often the only public record of when and how a jurisdiction entered the PSDEX network.
Oklahoma City Council memo authorizing sole source renewal of AVCC subscription plus Amendment No. 1. The amendment explicitly restricts OKC’s contributed data to authorized consortium members only, prohibiting sharing outside the consortium. The need for such an amendment implies the standard AVCC terms allow broader data access — OKC had to negotiate a restriction that Downers Grove PD claimed did not exist. Contract value $165,608.82 for 2026. Original agreement April 2014.
City of Inglewood City Council agenda item (Feb 24, 2026) approving a five-year LexisNexis agreement for the Police Department's use of the Accurint Virtual Crime Center. Includes the staff report, the LexisNexis "Schedule A — Accurint Virtual Crime Center (Subscription)" for the Inglewood Police Department (term 3/1/2026–2/28/2031; $57,289 Year 1, rising 3%/yr to $64,479; up to 5 Database Interfaces; Jail Booking Search & Report; non-FCRA services), and a Dec 22, 2025 LexisNexis quote listing Community Crime Map as included. The documents describe Accurint as an investigative search platform; they contain no AVCC data-contribution addendum or license clause, and no evidence that Inglewood contributes its RMS data to LexisNexis. Inglewood runs its public crime map via CrimeMapping.com, not LexisNexis Community Crime Map.

Complete five-document package for Hermosa Beach PD's entry into the LexisNexis Accurint Virtual Crime Center, obtained through a Hawthorne CPRA. Contains the executed AVCC XML Addendum (ORI CA0019290, signed by City Manager Suja Lowenthal on January 3, 2019) establishing Confirmed Contributor status, plus something no other agency file in this database contains: a substantive written legal review performed before signing. Contents: (1) HBPD memo of 12/27/2018 from Lt. Landon Phillips to City Manager Suja Lowenthal recommending the purchase, noting AVCC replaced Command Central Analytics and cost $10,800 plus a 15% administrative fee to Hawthorne PD, $12,420 total. (2) Information report by Attorney Jane Abzug of the City Attorney's office describing the product, the data categories, the license terms, the Community Crime Map, and a separate Crossroads/LexisNexis e-commerce proposal on which she framed an explicit policy choice for the council. (3) LexisNexis Risk Solutions Government Application & Agreement, signed. (4) Non-FCRA Permissible Use Certification, signed, certifying access to full SSNs and driver's license numbers for HBPD detectives, analysts, investigators and command staff. (5) The AVCC XML Addendum itself, the standard variant carrying the Section I.2 contribution obligation and Section II.1 irrevocable worldwide license. The package also documents the regional architecture: HBPD's records live in a Mark 43 system hosted on Hawthorne PD's server, and HBPD joined Hawthorne's master LexisNexis agreement rather than contracting directly.
City of Hawthorne City Council Agenda Bill, Item No. 8, for the meeting of August 22, 2017. Originating department: Police Department. City Manager Arnold Shadbehr, Chief of Police Robert Fager. The item asks the council to let Hawthorne act as contractual hub on behalf of the member cities of the South Bay Regional Public Communications Authority for a collaborative purchase of the LexisNexis Accurint Virtual Crime Center. It is the authorizing document for the six-agency consortium arrangement. Three things it establishes. First, what changed: the cities already held individual Accurint contracts for public records searching, and the new bundle added access to police records, which required a live connection to the region's shared records and dispatch systems. Second, who built that connection: Hawthorne's IT department, partnering with LexisNexis engineers, maintaining it for all cities. Third, the money: $81,955 in the first year, Hawthorne's share $16,031 from its existing ITS budget, a 15 percent discount from LexisNexis for consolidating to one contract, and an administrative fee charged by Hawthorne to the other cities. Hawthorne's prior contract was roughly $12,000 a year for six licenses; the new one gave every sworn officer a login. The bill also records that no public notice was required for the item.
