BOND MONEY IS APPROVED BY THE ALBUQUERQUE CITY COUNCIL SO THE CITY POLICE DEPARTMENT CAN GET A COMPUTER DATABASE TO HELP MATCH SHELL CASINGS AND GUNS TO CRIMINALS. THE PRICE ON THAT SYSTEM RUNS 150-THOUSAND DOLLARS. IT’S SIMILAR TO THE SYSTEM USED BY THE FBI TO CATCH MORE THAN 100 DANGEROUS CRIMINALS IN ALBUQUERQUE LAST WEEK.
CITY COUNCILOR PAT DAVIS TELLS KOB TV THAT APD OFFICERS HAVE ALREADY BEEN TRAINED TO USE THE DATABASE.
