What Do Police Officers Do With Your Information?


About 5 years ago, when I was 15 years old, we used to live in a not-so-good neighborhood. Some guy that I went to school with used to live in that same neighborhood, he was about the same age as me. We didn’t talk a lot, just from time to time. One day, I am outside washing my parent’s truck and I see him coming down the street with a gang affiliated shirt. He sees me, so he stops to talk.
About 2 minutes after he arrives at my house, we see an unmarked police car turn the corner. I then tell him to take his shirt off or turn it inside out because the police officer was going to question him about it. He doesn’t listen and says that the officer won’t do anything. The officer drives up to us and calls him over. He talked to him for about 30 seconds, then he calls me over. The officer asks me what was up with my friends shirt. I tell the officer the same thing I told my friend, that I had told him to take it off because he was going to stop him and ask him about it. The officer then asks my age, If I was going to school, what school, then, he asks me for my name and date of birth.
Now what I am wondering and what I am a little bit worried about is, what did the officer do with my information? Did he simply do a search to see if I had a criminal record, or did he input me into the system as a gang member? If someone knows the answer, I appreciate your response, Thank you.
