Property & Evidence Unit

The Department's Property & Evidence Unit is responsible for maintaining all property and evidence with the highest level of integrity in the interest of public safety. The major responsibilities of an Evidence Officer are to receive all incoming property, to store it properly, to preserve its condition, to maintain it securely, to prevent tampering, to lawfully release or dispose of it, and to maintain documentation of the entire process that is sufficiently accurate and complete to satisfy any court which has reason to examine the process.
