North Carolina Basic Law Enforcement Training (BLET) State Practice Exam

What are the two primary objectives of CJLEADS?

1. To track outstanding warrants and monitor parole cases

2. To provide comprehensive view of NC criminal information and allow users to develop a watch list

3. To assist in traffic violations and manage prison resources

4. To compile statistics on crime rates across the state

The correct answer is: To provide comprehensive view of NC criminal information and allow users to develop a watch list

The primary objectives of CJLEADS (Criminal Justice Law Enforcement Automated Data Services) are centered around improving the efficiency and effectiveness of law enforcement and criminal justice personnel. The system is designed to provide a comprehensive view of criminal information within North Carolina, which allows law enforcement officers and other stakeholders to access a wide range of data more quickly and effectively. By allowing users to develop a watch list, CJLEADS enhances the ability of agencies to monitor subjects of interest, keeping track of their movements and interactions within the criminal justice system. This information is invaluable for proactive law enforcement operations, helping agencies to respond promptly to issues or threats before they escalate. The other options present useful functionalities but do not capture the full scope and the main intended objectives of CJLEADS. For instance, while tracking outstanding warrants and monitoring parole cases is operationally relevant, it does not encompass the comprehensive intelligence gathering and monitoring capabilities that CJLEADS offers. Similarly, assisting with traffic violations and managing prison resources or compiling crime statistics are important aspects of criminal justice, but they do not reflect the primary focus of CJLEADS, which is to centralize and provide broad access to detailed criminal information.
