The prospect of State police and every jurisdiction running the software being able to easily share information is not just desirable but some would argue critical. At the outset, there were no bad guys here. Burning $10Mill without enough to show for it is simply bad project management stemming from poor leadership.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-30378583655792346232015-12-17T21:07:59.032-05:002015-12-17T21:07:59.032-05:00Ballard
