The use of students' academic and attendance data in a Florida district in Pascoe County to predict whether they might commit crimes later in life is drawing scrutiny. Law enforcement officials say the data, which has not been shared with the roughly 400 students identified, is used to target students who need additional support and mentorship, but experts on data privacy and student security are asking for an investigation, and say it could be illegal.
