I know there was that clusterfuck with the dc crime lab. I’m surprised DC / MD / VA aren’t pooling their resources for some of these tools / labs that all the departments rely on.

Is there much cooperation and communication on this stuff between all the jurisdictions? Seems like that would be helpful but I have no clue.

They’re just farming out everything to private labs or federal labs depending on the stage of the case.

No clue on whether labs cooperate around here- they just spit the reports back out a few months after arrest.
