Most police departments have a community policing division where you can make a complaint or inform them that you suspect one of their officers of abusing public resources. Even if you don't know the officer's name they should be able to find out who's been pulling your drivers license number. He probably won't get punished but I'll bet he tells your husband he's not helping him anymore!
Do everything in writing....

I'm certain their department policy prevents him from doing this. So, he's got an employment issue that his Chief might not appreciate at all. Notify the Chief and request an internal affairs investigation. Don't mess around with notifying anyone of lower rank... go straight to the top.

Call his commanding officer, or make a complaint with Internal Affairs. If they won't give you the time of day, write a letter to your local newspaper. Also, try the Mayor's office in your town.

If you can prove it - through recorded conversations or something - I would think that would be harassment by a police officer or abuse of power. I would go to his superior with the information.

If provable the officer is abusing his authority. You can speak to the Chief, and something could be done. Anytime a record check is run, their is a documentation made of it.

Hire a lawyer and sue the local police department. However, you must be able to prove that this officer is doing what you have stated.

I believe that officer is breaking privacy and confidentiality laws. Go to his higher-up, whoever that may be and complain until something is done. You could probably sue him for emotional damage and invasion of privacy if you have good evidence that he has done this.

This isn't fair, ethical, moral or probably legal but unless you have ironclad poof there may not be much you can do about it. Is moving an options?

If you know who this officer works for then go to his superiors and let them worry about any discipline and/or charges.

You can place harassment and/or stalking charges on him. Or go to someone higher up than him and speak with them. This is not legal and should be stopped.
