Investigative Services (for Law Enforcement)

Forensic examination of the data captured for the incident and documentation of that examination in the form of the Detailed Forensic Report (DFR), a court-admissible analysis of a shooting incident captured by the ShotSpotter system that is produced by expert forensic engineers. It provides critical evidence of how, when, and where the shooting incident occurred. It furnishes demonstrative and dramatic evidence of the shooting incident by capturing the audio of the gunfire that can be replayed to a jury.

Business Certification Request

SoundThinking makes and keeps certain records during the normal course of carrying out its business activity. These include Investigative Lead Summaries (ILS) and audio snippets of gunfire. A Business Record Certification, prepared by one of our Forensic Services Managers as records custodian, may allow an attorney to authenticate and introduce these records into court without having to call a witness.
