In 2013, Officer Ronald Robinson accessed the National Crime Information Center (NCIC) and Indiana Data and Communication System (IDACS) databases without authorization to obtain information about a confidential informant. Robinson admitted to this unauthorized access during an FBI investigation, claiming he did so out of ‘curiosity.’ As a result, the Indiana State Police permanently revoked his access to these databases. The City of Gary filed a complaint against Robinson, leading to his termination from the police department.
