Looking for this app.
 

I was watching this crime show The First 48 and there was a detective that had a mogul and he had this app on it where he could look up people by name or license plate number. Does anybody know what it could have been and how to get it? price dosent matter.

A lot of police and sheriff's departments use a unified records management system that allows them access to confidential databases, internal, and external, including NCIC and state DMV records. These are accessed via a VPN client for authentication of the user. So..the short answer is, sorry, unless you are part of an authorized agency and have the credentials to access this it is not possible. On the flip side, there are private data mining companies like Lexis Nexis, etc... that will sell subscriptions to those that have a demonstrated need.

You can try PublicData.com - it isn't an app, but you can access it from Opera or PIE:

www.locateplus.com has simillar software, I know that they have it for blackberry...and again no, YOU can not get it.

You might note that BOTH Accurint and LocatePlus as restricted in certain states like California, New Jersey, Washington, Arizona (those I know off the top of my head) in DMV searches.....

In Arizona, (with the probable exception for law enforcement) you must go in person to the MVD (Motor Vehicle Department) to run plates....And YOU by the way, probably can not do that either! Some of here here might be able to though.

How shall we know who is or is not a cop onsite? I know there are PIs onsite, but I don't know personally of any cops.

Re: Looking for this app.
 

Haha!! I know the computer in J's truck does all that, they don't have any handheld things....And if they did I don't think any cops on this site are going to help you into finding a way to do it :p

Re: Looking for this app.
 

or it doesn't exist and made for a tv show?(thought I can see it being real but most cops rather at a donate then learn technology at least in my own) Heck I want the program batman uses in dark knight to hear everyone on their cell phone or the many programs they use on their sprint phones in smallville lol though I know the US army has a sweet win mobile program they can use to assist their forces in the battlefield give them info enemy abilities and capabilities and such good look getting that.. luckily I have it to bad not on my civy phone grrr (gotta love smart phones with built in kill switches)

Re: Looking for this app.
 

I don't want any cops to give me ANY info, I just want them to leave my tinted windows alone! Why can't they understand i NEED IT for my job!?!!?

Re: Looking for this app.
