Can you have your fingerprint removed from the FBI database?
No, you can't: once your fingerprints are submitted to FBI they cannot be removed, even if your case was expunged or you were exonerated. However, the FBI has strict guidelines by which they handle such fingerprints. With the exception of federal crimes, the FBI is not a repository for criminal records. Fingerprints stored on their database can only be accessed by police, and only for criminal investigative reasons, such as to match latent fingerprints with any which may be in their database. One exception to this rule is that certain agencies-- those which deal with jobs involving working with children, the elderly or disabled-- can submit fingerprints to match against the fingerprints on their database, and only if the subject was convicted of a crime which involves working with children, the elderly or disabled, such as abuse, violence, or sex crimes.
What is the fingerprint database called?
I would assume it was a relational database.. I also assume you mean the fingerprint database that is used by the police forces. as far as i am aware it is a relational database. I think because you could query either a name or a fingerprint reading and then get the information relating to it..Example: If you were looking for the name to a set of fingerprints, you would enter the finger print into your query, and then you might get a name if it is in the database, and if you were looking for the fingerprints to a guy, you would enter a name and you might get the fingerprints for him if you have the right name and it is contained within the database.
