If that rumor was true about the drug smuggling story, than might want to check federal (most likely) or state arrest/prison records. Open source, though not always, on the internet. If your a cop, or work for the criminal branch of the government, going to get more of a thorough search. Freedom Of Information Act also gives up a lot of private information; addresses, work place, criminal records, etc. Also NSA (Big Brother) is always gathering data on just about everyone now days.
On another note:Been told by a few hackers (I've worked and lifted with some) that GB is a piece of cake to get into. Meaning the all personal data, like real name, e-mail address, county, etc is an open book. Might suggest a good VPN service or app for people here. A proxy sever as a distance second choice. Example, I'm listed as from Germany but actually in SoCal. Nothing is 100% including a VPN server<but may be worth the effort to check it out. Or investigate Tor or Comodo as browsers....it's a start.
