Which is more important: protecting your privacy, or preventing underage drinking? That's how the debate shaped up Tuesday at the statehouse. The Senate Transportation committee was hearing a bill that would ban the scanning of driver's licenses - which are the most common form of ID. Producer Richard Ager has our report. |

Soundup: scanner at Durham market place Track: This is the machine at the heart of the dispute. At the Durham Market Place, this scanner is used to verify the license is genuine - and not an easily obtainable fake. Bite; legislature tape 2 10:44:50 Since we've gotten the machines, we've been 100% legal. And I attribute a lot of that to the machines - because the fake IDs are so good. Bite: legislature tape 2 10:45;24 It's our responsibility to keep the underage people from drinking - and that's what our goal is. Track: But supporters of the bill say people in their 40's and 50's have complained of being carded and having their licenses scanned - and, some fear, added to a database. Bite: legislature tape 1 10:16:29 If my wife goes to the local 7/11 and buys a 6-pack of beer, I don't think the guy behind the counter should have any ability whatsoever to see where she lives or any other information. It's none of his business. Bite: legislature tape 1 10:15;00 One of the problems that I have as a privacy advocate is that - they start scanning licenses and they start keeping databases, it's pretty easy to trace where you've been - probably easy to trace who you were with. So it's - in my opinion, Big Brother. Bite: legislature tape 2 11:07:10 Convenience store owners and proprieters are interested in ensuring that they are legally selling age-restricted products. Track: But retailers who sell alchohol and tobacco say they are all trying to protect themselves against lawbreakers. Bite: legislature tape 2 10:46:57 Every illegal sale that is made is made because a minor attempted to make that purchase. Most of those attempts include misrepresentation of age. Frankly, we come here pleading for your help. I don't think anyone would question the support suggested for protecting one's privacy. That is something we all need to safeguard - but not at any cost. Bite: legislature tape 2 10:56:53 Name, birthdate, sex, height, weight, hair color, eye color, any restrictions and endorsements…. Track: The Department of Safety regards the information encoded on licenses as state property - and doesn't businesses building databases with it. Standup: legislature tape 3 15:07:46 Dept. of Safety officials say this is one issue they don't want to compromise on. That's because having the encoded information on the license's magnetic strip is crucial to the development and success of Project 54, the next-generation law enforcement information system. Soundup: legislature tape 3 14:51:55 "Pursuit… Track: The system, which is being developed by UNH, features voice-activated computer-aided commands and, when fully installed, it will be designed to scan drivers licenses. Bite: 14:19:03 There are a number of different advantages. One is to get the information quickly. We are more apt to get the information on a more regular and routine basis because of the ease and efficiency with which we can get it. And in addition, with the ability to scan, we can more efficiently complete accident reports. Track: And that, state officials say, is the point of that magnetic strip. Bite: legislature tape 3 11:04;06 It was not to be used as a data bank for marketing. It was not to be used as a databank for any other purpose. It was to be used only for enforcement of motor vehicle laws. Bite: legislature tape 1 10:36:47 One of my goals back 3 years ago when a boy fell off a roof in Durham and died - an underaged drinker - was to never sell another beer to an underage person again in my life. Track: But for now, retailers who invested in the scanners say they will continue to use them - to enforce liquor control laws - and protect themselves. The issue is expected before the full Senate in the next few weeks. For NH Outlook, I'm Richard Ager. |

The OJ Simpson trial and shows like C-S-I, and Forensic Files, have made the public more savy when it comes to gathering evidence. In a few minutes we're going to find out how evidence is processed here in New Hampshire at the state crime lab. But first, Robert Tulloch - one of the Vermont teens accused in the murders of Half and Susanne Zantop - is scheduled to appear in court Thursday morning where he's expected to change his plea. Here to talk about what this means - Buzz Scher - Law Professor at Franklin Pierce College and Mark Howard Assistant U.S. Attorney. Tulloch's current plea is not guilty by reason of insanity. |
| Intro Crime Lab Return to index of stories... |
Evidence gathered at the home of Half and Suzanne Zantop was key in making the arrests of Robert Tulloch and James Parker. That evidence was processed at the New Hampshire state police crime lab. Last year, the crime lab processed evidence in more than 7 thousand cases. From fingerprints to d-n-a evidence, the lab is responsible for analyzing all kinds of evidence in search of clues to solve crimes. |

NH--Hockey Send-off dewst UNH sends hockey team off to championships Pronouncer - Umile -- you MILL' ee -- Students, alumni and other fans gave the University of New Hampshire hockey team a rousing send-off today as the Wildcats headed to Minnesota to play in the national college hockey championships. About 15 hundred people gathered outside the Whittemore Center, where the team sells out almost every home game. Coach Dick Umile said the team is focusing on its semi-final match against Maine on Thursday in Saint Paul in the N-C-double-A championship. Senior Darren Haydar told the crowd the team feels as if it owes Maine something because of the heartbreaking loss to Maine in the 1999 championship final. Athletic Director MartySarano asked the crowd to control any celebrations to avoid outbreaks of violence like those last night in Maryland and Indiana after the college basketball championships. Afterward, the team boarded a bus for Logan Airport. AP-NY-04-02-02 1340EST |
