DETECTIVE BUREAU
CRIME SCENE INVESTIGATIONS
Who speaks for the "victims" when they can no longer speak
for themselves? Who deals with clues left behind, be it a fingerprint,
a paint chip, a solid, liquid, or gas and analyses these facts?
None other than a Crime Scene Investigator.
The North Las Vegas Police Department Crime Scene Investigations Bureau
is made up of nine such trained professionals, consisting of both commissioned
and civilian employees, all under the supervision of Sgt. Ryan.
In February 2005 a grave yard shift was established, which allows the
CSI Bureau to now operate 24 hours a day, seven days a week, rather than
having to report back as a "call out" once they had gone home
for the day.
In addition to the other improvements made, the CSI Bureau has also received
two new crime scene vehicles, a major crime scene van and a Ford Expedition.
These vehicles will assist them in arriving at various crime scenes with
the tools needed.
The Bureau personnel also just completed the printing of their first
CSI poster, as seen below. It highlights different CSIs, each performing
a different forensic technique.
