Lee Institute Trains Connecticut Police
The Henry C. Lee Institute of Forensic Science recently announced a plan to provide advanced forensic evidence collection training, access to state-of-the-art forensic technology and the expertise of specially-trained forensic consultants to state police at no cost to the departments.
The program uses two federal grants and a major equipment donation totaling more than $1.3 million to train Connecticut police in advanced forensic technology and provide them with access to the latest crime-fighting technology.
Henry C. Lee, founder of the Lee Institute, said it will establish an Evidence Response Training Center and a Regional Forensic Technology Assistance Team.
“The Institute of Forensic Science is pleased to take the lead in training detectives and other criminal justice personnel to use this advanced technology and to provide expertise at no cost to the police departments,” Lee said. “Forensic science is more important than ever in solving criminal cases. Learning to use this advanced technology makes the job of the police easier and renders them more effective in the field.”
