Warrant backlog allows felons to slip through cracks
Police say hundreds of thousands of felony warrants remain outstanding nationwide, with states like Massachusetts listing tens of thousands while vast numbers never enter the federal NCIC system. Experts warn limited resources and poor interagency coordination let fugitives renew licenses and access benefits, enabling repeat offenses.

Incomplete state data limits NICS gun background checks
The FBI’s National Instant Check System relies on state cooperation, with many states not sharing mental health or gang-involved data. Officials note “this is a voluntary system” and that information not in state records won’t be checked. Since NICS began, 48,000 purchases were blocked, while states ran 2.4 million tests using their own data alongside NICS.
