Keeping Tabs On the "Bad Guys"
Are you a law-abiding citizen who wants to own a gun in Massachusetts?
You're looking at a 100 percent chance of having pages of personal information carefully scrutinized and dutifully entered into the state's Criminal History Systems Board database (name, address, phone number, date and place of birth, mother's maiden name, father's name, citizenship status, employment status, height, weight, eye and hair color, etc.).
Are you a criminal who has committed a violent crime in Massachusetts and is looking to leave the state to start a new life of thuggery?
You're in luck, my friend! The odds of having all this personal information - along with information pertaining to your criminal record - entered into the state's computer systems have now dropped to less than 5 percent!

Aside from a few puffs of smoke still emanating from the anal orifices of a handful of fawning Boston Globe reporters and city councilors, Boston Mayor Tom "Blame New Hampshire" Menino was unavailable for comment.

Dangerous Criminals: Part 1, Part 2
Anchor: Dangerous criminals from Massachusetts may be off the hook... Once they leave the state! A Fox Undercover investigation revealed tens thousands of people wanted for serious crimes are not listed in the national database used by law enforcement across the country.
Now our investigative unit has learned the state has known about this problem for years!
Investigative reporter Mike Beaudet is here with the troubling truth about criminals left out of the system.
Beaudet: The system is NCIC, the National Crime Information Center. Police across the country use it when they pull someone over to see if they're dealing with a dangerous criminal who's wanted in another state.
But Massachusetts is failing miserably when it comes to entering information about our wanted criminals into the system.
Now we have proof the state has been well aware of the problem. A special state senate report released in 1999 highlighted the state's failures. But still nothing's been done to fix it!
Can you spell "P-R-I-O-R-I-T-I-E-S"?
Our investigation found that out of 104,543 outstanding warrants for felonies and serious misdemeanors in Massachusetts, only 4,849 have been entered into the FBI database. That's less than 5 percent!
Violent Massachusetts fugitives could be living in other states, getting driver's licenses, even gun permits.
