The Camden County Police Department has hired experts in forensics and obtained new technology that allows them to conduct DNA testing and other crime scene investigative work on-site, rather than shipping off the evidence to Trenton, where it could take anywhere from eight months to a year to obtain results. The Department hopes that a quick turnaround of testing will increase the speed in which perpetrators are arrested.

New technology includes a drying machine, a fumer to detect fingerprints, an Omnichrome machine that also detects DNA and fingerprints, and a National Integrated Ballistic Information Network (NIBIN) machine. The NIBIN machine takes sophisticated photographs of ballistic materials and runs a comparison through a database of ballistics, as well as a database of ballistics used in other crimes in the area.
