Street smarts, instinct and a quick draw are very nice, but DNA tests, computerized analysis and forensic databases are even nicer in law enforcement. It was not until the 1980s that cops allowed new technologies, such as the automated fingerprint identifying system used in the 1980s Night Stalker case, to prove their worth but everyone involved has been making up for lost time since. Snow, Commander of the homicide branch in the Indianapolis Police Department, takes an accessible tour through the new tools of law enforcement, starting with new officer training methodologies and improvements to vehicles used in police work, from SWAT trucks to lab vans. He describes improved communication and dispatch, increased expectations for technical expertise from personnel, better lie detection and evidence processing, DNA analysis and computerized forensics, not only to analyze physical evidence but to evaluate financial records, create perpetrator profiles, and create prevention and intervention strategies.
