Using Technologies to Solve Crime - The Fishers PD Method

Fishers PD, located just north of Indianapolis, Indiana, has seemingly perfected solving crime in record speeds.

Benefit? By rapidly getting the bad guys off the street they remove the public threat, reduce future crimes by those individuals and more effectively utilize their investigator man hours to solve crimes that might otherwise not get the attention they deserve.

By fully utilizing several cutting edge technologies, including VMD, wet-vacuum forensic DNA collection, and rapid DNA sequencers, they are solving rapes, assaults and potential homicides in hours rather than days, weeks or even months.

In essence, they start by pinpointing the DNA deposits using Vacuum Metal Deposition (VMD) and ALS to ensure they know exactly where the DNA material is located. Then they collect the deposits using the M-Vac system to ensure they capture as much of the DNA material as possible, further concentrating the DNA on the M-Vac filter. Then they take a portion of the filter and run it through the RapidHIT ID system, which will give them results in 90 minutes. If those results are interpretable and from a single source, they immediately notify the case detective with the actionable intelligence and the detectives can then be out chasing down the bad guys with hard evidence rather than waiting weeks or months for lab results.

What's beyond impressive is they have already proven their method on casework with astonishing results.

This video is but scratching the surface of how effective good police work and cutting edge technologies, utilized in a strategic and synergistic, methodical way, can remove criminals from our streets in a time-frame that would seem impossible.

The M-Vac System enables investigators to solve more crime through better DNA collection. It helps detectives and crime scene investigators close difficult open and cold cases. For example, the M-Vac found probative DNA on a cold case victim's water soaked clothing, allowing the case to move forward. The M-Vac can help you move cases forward as well.

The M-Vac wet-vacuum system collects more forensic DNA material from the evidence than traditional methods. It sprays down and vacuums up a sterile solution from the evidence surface collecting the DNA material. Better collection equals better DNA profiles and profiles that could not be obtained before. It means more cases are being solved and detectives are moving forward both cold and active cases.

As a new and disruptive wet-vacuum collection platform, the M-Vac System excels at collecting microscopic particles, such as the cells found in saliva, blood or seminal fluids. It collects cells from a wide variety of surfaces like fabrics, carpet, tile, walls and other surfaces. The M-Vac is superior to swabs, tape, sponges and contact plates in efficacy, especially on porous surfaces. Whether you need to sample forensic evidence in a crime lab or collect DNA material from a difficult object or stain at a crime scene, the M-Vac provides a forensic DNA collection capability that previously did not exist, surpassing swabbing by as much as 100X.

Questions regarding wet-vacuum forensic DNA collection, specific data or casework, or any MSI product or service can be answered by our team located in Sandy, Utah. As specialists in wet-vacuum and forensic DNA collection we can address your needs and show you the advantages of sampling with the M-Vac.
