Short answer to the time lapse between crime scene harvesting and identification in a computer: hours to days at some agencies, but at other agencies it may take weeks/months/years. Latent print searches can take minutes to days from the time of launch in a computer system, depending on the speed and workload (backlog) of individual systems. Before that can happen, the individual backlog of a police agency may mean that weeks, months or years will pass before the prints are completely evaluated and prepared for searching. | ||

How long would it take from the time of a break in till the time the police can tell whose fingerprints are at the scene? say the prints came off a piece of glass... | ||

It depends on how they are submitted; whether inked cards or livescan are sent. Inked print cards can take weeks, live-scan submissions sent directly can take minutes or hours. | ||

How long does it take for an employer to get prints back from the fbi using the new database? | ||

Heard something about police having access from their cars to check prints, is it true or does it take a period of time to get results. |
