Woman from KSTP-TV claims data abuse by more than 100 cops

According to the Star-Tribune, KSTP-TV investigative producer Beth McDonough has filed suit in federal court claiming that more than 170 law enforcement employees from more than 40 agencies have illegally viewed her private driver's license data more than 500 times in total. Further, she claims that she was warned about the abuse by Minnesota's public safety commissioner Mona Dohman years ago when Dohman served as police chief for the city of Maple Grove and heard cops discussing private information about her among themselves.
