John and Ken broadcasting on KFI, Los Angeles reported a short while ago that the Superior Court in Orange County, Ca. is sending personal information such as personal drivers license information, and insurance information out of the country into Mexico for processing.


They reported further that this story has just publicly surfaced yesterday. They reported the following:


If you get a ticket, or need to deal with the Orange County Courts, your drivers license information, and automobile insurance informatory is being picked up daily by a truck at the Orange County Superior Court and it's loaded up with citizens personal information and the trucks are being driven across the border to Nogales, Mexico for processing.

Apparently the board of supervisors were angry yesterday late that the issue was being reported publicly, but now it seems several officials affiliated with the County of Orange are demanding this activity stop immediately, and they are demanding to know who's idea, or who was behind sending citizens personal, sensitive documents out of the country to Mexico.

It was just now reported that fingers are being pointed at a "Superior Court official" but they did not identify this person or persons at this time.


The board of supervisors this morning were apparently outraged this morning that KFI and others were reporting this. Now it seems this has changed and spokesperson Janet Nguyen from Orange County is agreeing with the radio hosts, and others, and are acting horrified at what is occurring here, due to the security risk of personal information of thousands of citizens of this country, sitting on a desk in Nogales Mexico.


Being reported now that a company called Calcoast picks up TONS of information from ALL OC courts including citizen (DOB) dates of birth, drivers license, information vehicle license numbers, names, addresses, etc are now in Mexico.

Story seems to be breaking and is being covered extensively in Los Angeles and OC.
