SHERIFF - AUTHORIZE AGREEMENTS WITH CITY OF CHULA VISTA AND CITY OF ESCONDIDO FOR CALIFORNIA IDENTIFICATION SYSTEM SUPPORT POSITIONS (DISTRICTS: ALL)
Body
OVERVIEW
The California Identification System/Remote Access Network (Cal-ID/RAN) is a statewide system that provides local law enforcement agencies with direct access to local, state, and federal automated fingerprint, palm print, photo systems and databases. This statewide system allows for the rapid identification of persons booked into detention facilities and latent prints lifted from crime scenes. The Sheriff's Department serves as San Diego County's Cal-ID/RAN administrator.
The San Diego County Cal-ID/RAN Board is a regional policy and advisory board responsible for making recommendations since 2007 for a program to employ staff in crime laboratories across the region and identify suspects.
