The Boston Police Department celebrates National Forensic Science Week which honors the crucial role forensic scientists play in the criminal justice system.
The BPD would like to recognize the dedicated and talented women and men of the Forensic Division, which is composed of sworn officers and civilian personnel.
The Division offers services in crime scene processing, evidence examination, firearms analysis, latent print processing and comparison, impression evidence collection and comparison, trace evidence examination, and digital evidence.
The Forensic Division staff not only support our numerous investigations through their analytical work and objective testimony but also engage and educate various schools and community organizations by giving demonstrations and lectures.
They play a critical role in keeping our City safe and we thank them for the work they do each and every day!
