New fingerprinting system speeds identification process for local law enforcement officials
No two fingerprints are alike, and now law enforcement officials in Audrain County and the city of Mexico have a unique way to take them.The Audrain Sheriff’s Department and Mexico Public Safety Department have a new way to take fingerprints. Thanks to a grant from the State Emergency Management Agency both of the offices have installed a Livescan Fingerprinting System.The new system will eliminate the need for the old ink and roller system which required the law enforcement officer to use a stainless steel roller and coat the fingers with ink. The fingers were then rolled onto a card.
