BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS
PASS -AROUND REVIEW
PASS -AROUND TITLE: 2020 Training
DEPARTMENT: Crime Lab
PERSON REQUESTING: Lab Director Daren Ford
DATE: 05/01/20
Brief description of the problem/issue:
The Regional Crime Lab has been awarded the Paul Coverdell Grant for 2020. This grant designates funds in
the amount of $17,614 for personnel training. These federal funds are provided to each state in the form of a
formula grant determined by the number of type 1 crimes found within our 5 partnered agencies. The Lab has
utilized this grant for the past several years to train and certify the analysts.
After examining the needs of the regional lab, I have identified the following training opportunities:
1. Education classes in cell phone and computer forensics for the DME analysts to assist in the reduction
of the cell phone and computer backlog.
2. Send two analysts to attend ANAB's lab accreditation auditing class. This course provides analysts with
the knowledge and skills to perform internal audits of the lab for quality control.
3. Send two analysts to discipline specific conferences to ensure their knowledge and skills are current
with the changes in their disciplines.
This request is to accept the awarded Coverdell Grant funds in the amount of $17,614.
This grant requires no matching funds and there will be no additional cost imposed on the County. Also, there is
no supplanting of funds with this request.
What options exist for the Board? (include consequences, impacts, costs, etc. of options):
Accept the grant for training funds for the lab in the amount of $17,614.
Or
Not approve the request.
Recommendation:
I recommend accepting the grant.

The largest number of items submitted to the DME section of the laboratory
consist of cell phones. It is important that the DME analysts have the training
necessary to extract and analyze the data from phones.
A Shoe and Tire track examiner needs to attend this class in order to maintain
his certification in Shoe and tire track comparisons.
One of our newest latent print examiners will use this class to expand her
knowledge of latent print comparisons and aid in her course requirements for
certification.
A latent print/shoe and tire track analyst will use the conference and its many
training opportunities to meet the continuing education requirements necessary
for her certifications.
The DME A/V analyst needs to update her training in the collection of videos
from digital devices. Her training was primarily with analog devices and so we
are updating her knowledge.
