randy johnson's perfect game
With support from the OJJDP Enforcing the Underage Drinking Laws Program, enforcement agencies, community organizations, youth, and other concerned citizens are working collaboratively to identify key issues and to implement effective enforcement strategies to reduce underage drinking and youth access to alcohol. Police in South Kingstown, Rhode Island have successfully tracked down the source of hundreds of fake drivers' licenses. In the course of their operation, the police put a serious dent in underage drinkers' access to alcohol.
By tracking down the residents of these addresses, the investigators were able to identify a number of people who had possessed false identification. Still, the problem persists to some extent, and many students go off-campus to drink. The police were also able to make more than 90 arrests. As part of their investigation, the police made an effort to contact individuals who had attempted to pass off false identification. Says Detective Balbi, "We're getting the message out to U. To deal with the ID problem, police in South Kingstown adopted the successful Identification Seizure program developed by police in nearby Newport (see the Success Story, "In Newport, RI, Police and Retailers Take the Fakes", Feb. A third had made some fifteen cards. In that manner, the program netted more than 200 fake driver's licenses-some of astonishingly high quality. Usually, the customer flees rather than risk police involvement. Now the police are examining the students' hard drives, in search of names of past customers. Many of the false licenses-copies of the New Jersey license-had addresses that were correct if "RI" was substituted for "NJ". The South Kingstown police worked with the thirty-four local liquor license holders to train restaurant, bar, and store staff to spot false identification and call for police assistance. The officers hope that they can recover many of the licenses put into circulation by the students.
