Conceived as a way of drawing the connections between cases that ballistics reports otherwise lack, Crime Gun Intelligence Centers (CGIC) have become an invaluable asset in identifying, investigating, and prosecuting violent criminals. Presenters will demonstrate how the CGIC model leverages strong policies, innovative technology, and a variety of firearms tracing and crime gun intelligence to create a comprehensive picture, increasing the timeliness and response of law enforcement to identify trigger pullers and their source of crime guns before they can commit further criminal acts.
