LEADS and Protecting Children |
LEADS (Law Enforcement Automated Data System) - The FBI has recently
awarded Ohio permission for authorities to immediately share LEADS
computerized criminal history information with PCSAs at the time of
immediate placement (vs. waiting for BCI&I processing of fingerprint
images), in order to support safe placements. It is contingent upon
submitting fingerprint images for accurate confirmation of the
individuals, within 15 days. This information will provide essential
safety data at the time of placement, supporting safe and stable
environments (vs. causing a move later when an unacceptable criminal
history is discovered).
PCSAO has developed an overview, and a Model Protocol for Local Access of LEADS
for Child Welfare
Use the following items to make your required application to the State
Highway Patrol to access LEADS data:
