Mr. Sheehan, a 41-year-old computer engineer in Mill Creek, Wash., near Seattle, says his postings hold the police accountable, by facilitating picketing, the serving of legal papers and research into officers' criminal histories. His site collects news articles and court papers about what he describes as inadequate and insincere police investigations, and about police officers who have themselves run afoul of the law.

Well, that is complete B.S., when considered with his earlier "Mr. Sheehan, ...who promises to expand his site to include every police and corrections officer in the state by the end of the year. ". No citizen needs personal home contact information to serve papers if they have been wronged by a cop. If they are wronged by a cop, the department should and would be served. This is not news to Mr. Sheehan, of course.

We hire police to deal with the very worst evil in our communities.... To give them a tool to seek revenge on the pretext of fighting some heroic battle for justice is irresponsible, and I can only hope he doesn't get someone killed.

I am in Washington state.
