Property & Evidence Management Issues for Police Executives, Managers and Supervisors
Is my property room a big mess?
Have we had an audit in the last year? or ever?
Do we conduct a complete inventory upon personnel change?
Are confiscated guns, drugs and cash stored under appropriate security?
Are we auctioning purged items for much needed money?
Are there more than 3 keys to my property room?
Do we have a Property & Evidence SOP?
Are we following CALEA guidelines?
Do we have a purge plan in place?
Are we out of space?
These are the questions every Police Chief should ask when considering the Property Room. There is more
potential for management issues to arise in the Property & Evidence operation than in any other facet of
police work. Your department's reputation depends on having outstanding management of the Property &
Evidence function.
At our class for technicians who work in the property room and the universal comment whenever key issues
are presented to the class is, "I wish our Chief knew that!"
This course looks at the Property & Evidence function from a different perspective than that of the property
room personnel who have to deal with the day to day "nuts and bolts" of property room operation. Chiefs and
commanders should be concerned that there is adequate policy to cover every facet of the evidence
process, so that property room personnel have virtually no decisions to make, only policy to follow.
This course covers the following topics:
Compliance with CALEA Standards for Property & Evidence Function
Producing a Property & Evidence Function Policy that works
Coordinating with your Prosecutor for Efficient Dispositions and Purging
Property Room Design, Construction and Security
Auction Alternatives & Options, including solving the bicycle problem
Audits & Inventories
Computerized Evidence Databases including barcoding & Lab Integration
This one-day intensive seminar is imperative for Chiefs and Staff Level Officers who need to formulate written
policies and improve the quality and efficiency of the property room function, as well as those who are
seeking CALEA certification.
This instructor for this course is David Kappler, his biography is available here.
The cost for this seminar is $150.00 per person which includes an assortment of model policies from around
the country.
