The American Civil Liberties Union of Oklahoma is seeking access to records from a law enforcement website it says is being misused to “track the activities of thousands of American citizens without their knowledge or consent.”

The website was created 10 years ago by Joe David, founder of Desert Snow.

The Guthrie-based private company has instructed more than 50,000 officers in techniques to spot drug smugglers on the nation’s highways.

The company has come under fire both in Oklahoma and nationwide because its training has led to questionable seizures of cash during traffic stops even when no drugs were found and no charges were filed against stopped motorists.
