Records and Identification

The Records and Identification Section is responsible for the processing of crime scenes, fingerprinting services, inmate processing, and maintains all incident and accident report files.

New digital photography equipment enables the Crime Scene Technicians to process the crime scenes and mug shots cheaper and more efficiently than in the past.  New computerized fingerprint scanning equipment allows faster and easier fingerprinting.  The digital fingerprint machine is also connected to the Georgia Bureau of Investigation (GBI) fingerprint files and allows the Technicians to confirm inmate identities in a matter of minutes, as well as allowing almost immediate updates of criminal records.  The Crime Scene Technicians also have a state of the art Evidence Collection Vehicle that contains thirty (30) separated evidence collection kits for efficiency and accuracy in crime scene processing.
