Confirmation also establishes if the person or property is still wanted and is probably the same as the person or property being inquired about.
|
|
|
Department of Justice regulations require that officers:
|
Make an effort to verify the information and match (e.g., details such as accuracy of a license plate run, DOB, consistency of the physical description, etc.), ensure that confirmation occurred with the originating agency to verify that the person or property is still wanted, and obtain confirmation before an arrest or the confiscation of the property in response to the computer match.

The use of unreliable or unsubstantiated information by an officer when establishing probable cause could lead to unlawful searches or seizures as well as incidents of false arrest; An officer may be held negligent for not accurately confirming information obtained from CLETS before taking such law enforcement actions.
