TODAY'S TOP STORIES: Public access to mug shots threatened in SF County
From the Santa Fe Reporter, a story about the County Corrections Department officials testing a registration system that would lock out the public and limit access to the database of current and former detainees to law enforcement officers and media representatives.
The Reporter's article reads:
"Right now, nothing stands between the public and the mug shots of any adult arrested in Santa Fe County whether it's Johnny Cash's step-daughter, Carlene Carter, or John `The Polite Robber' except for a click of the mouse on the county's Inmate Inquiry Web page. "
KOB-TV, Channel 4, gives us the good news out of the bad news about gas prices in a story that says Albuquerque drivers continue to get an advantage at the pump as gas prices rise around New Mexico.
Wednesday’s average in New Mexico was $4.01—a penny more than Tuesday. At several gas stations around the Duke City, a gallon of regular unleaded could be found for $3.79.
According to the Las Cruces Sun-News, a story that the New Mexico Department of Transportation has begun the bid process for Spaceport America road improvements. The bid is to improve County Road AO13 from Engle in Sierra County, south of the intersection of AO13 and AO39, which is the entrance to the planned spaceport. NMDOT will continue accepting bids until July 18 and work on the project is expected to begin around September. It is hoped the project will conclude by the end of the year.
The spaceport is the nation's first purpose-built facility for commercial space flight. The facility should be complete by 2010.
