    Did the judge overturn the conspiracy charge, but not the improper use of a government database charge? Based on this summarry it sounds like he got it right, kink chatrooms are not a conspiracy to commit a crime but digging up people’s info in a police database is fucked for any reason. The real fuckup here is the second circuit deciding that cops can pull information from a police database for personal reasons.

      Dated a cop’s daughter in my younger years. When I first met him, he asked my name, as I said it, gf interrupted to stop me cuz he database checks everyone who tells him their name. The story has a happy ending though, we broke up and her dad died :officer-down:
