Criminal Identification and
Investigation (BCI)
The Bureau of Criminal Identification and Investigation, known as BCI, helps police departments and county sheriffs across the state by providing key support services free of charge.
BCI staff members analyze DNA samples to help catch criminals and solve cold cases. Police agencies around the state frequently ask for BCI investigators to assist at crime scenes and draw on the Bureau’s expertise in growing criminal problems, such as cyber crime.
BCI field agents are always on call to respond to crime scenes and assist local law enforcement agencies with their investigations.
Additionally, BCI is home to the state’s Automated Fingerprint Identification System (AFIS), which contains the prints of millions along with their corresponding criminal histories, and the electronic Sex Offender Registration and Notification (eSORN) database, among other resources.
Its services are broken down into three areas:
* Identification
* Investigations
* Laboratory
LC:: Do you think this is the "norm" or do you think this is for special cases?
Is there any significance to their involvement, in your opinion?
