The City of Albuquerque (CALB) and Bernalillo County, N.M., recently completed the Albuquerque Metropolitan Forensics Center and Evidence Warehouse, a new building that accommodates the four sectors of a crime lab: crime scene investigation, crime laboratory (evidence analysis), evidence warehouse, and identification and disposition (fingerprints, mug-shots, rap-sheets).
Within these sectors are the separate scientific disciplines: DNA analysis, controlled substance analysis, computer forensics, fingerprint analysis, firearm and tool mark dissection, and forensic photography.
