I was having a discussion with my cousin who is a U.S cop and he stated to me a police name check at the station takes only 5 minutes to give a thorough check on a person.Surely this takes hours to check a person in the uk/u.s?

In the US, the information is sent to the state database and national database simultaneously. You get a response back in less than 15 seconds.
Sorting through the response takes the most time, but can easily be done in less than 5 minutes, unless you search a common name like James Johnson and get several responses.

It takes a few seconds for the response to come back to my MDT in my car. This will show any entries in NCIC and CCIC (I'm in CO), for warrants, restraining orders, protection orders etc as well as driving info. Might be a few minutes looking through the results as it'll list all "likely" or close hits to the name and dob I entered.
I'll then run their rap sheet and criminal history, again a few seconds to receive it back.
These checks will only show the barebones on someone. I can run someone through our own department's database to see the detail of all police contacts (with us) that someone was involved in (tickets/reports/statements/FIs etc). Or now we've just merged our database with most of the departments in the area, I can run someone thru that (its seperate to own our database). Again the search would take seconds, it would be looking through the reports that would long longer.

No, your cousin is right. The information is sent out through NCIC and only takes a few minutes to return with an answer.

at the instant it fairly is not elementary too say, even the courtroom on human rights wanted this dealt with, yet some police forces are refusing to up carry the human rights courts desires. This got here approximately whilst people who the place falsely accused of against the regulation had their DNA taken and the police refused to wreck it. so which you're able to think of tinny pointless archives is going no the place speedy and it will stick to you everywhere.

No, that is about how long it takes, about 5-10 minutes.

Why would it take hours? It's just a couple of databases.
