The Sheriff's Office Crime Laboratory has four sections: Forensic Blood-Alcohol Laboratory, Chemistry and Toxicology Laboratory, Crime Scene Investigation and CAL-ID Management.
The Forensic Blood-Alcohol Laboratory performs analysis on approximately 1800 samples annually from driving under the influence (DUI) cases. The Chemistry and Toxicology Laboratory analyzes approximately 2000 samples annually to determine what drugs a person has taken or the type of an unknown pharmacological. Forensic Specialists respond to crime scenes to document and collect evidence.
Evidence is received from the Sheriffs office, all Police Departments in the county, and from other outside agencies (State Parks, Fish and Wildlife, Cal Poly, Cuesta College, etc.) This evidence is processed in order to establish a link between individuals, or between an individual and a scene or event.
The Cal-ID Program for the county manages identification and biometric programs. It operates the countys Automated Fingerprint Identification System (AFIS) and Livescan. Expert testimony on the results of the work is provided in Juvenile and Superior Courts and before the Grand Jury.
This class is limited in size to the first 30 who register. You will be part of one of four or five smaller groups that will each be assigned to a different aspect of the Crime Laboratory. Your group will rotate through all of the presentations.
Please bring no food or drink. Closed toed shoes are mandatory. Seating is very limitied, so you need to be able to stand for an extended period of time.
