Application for Funding Assistance Florida Department of Law Enforcement Justice Assistance Grant - Direct ~~L;l?~~~~ iK General Project Information Project Title: INTERVIEW SURVEILLANCE SYSTEM Subgrant Recipient: City of Sunny Isles Beach Implementing Agency: Sunny Isles Beach Police Department Project Start Date: 4/1/2010 End Date: 9/30/2010 Problem Identification Currently our interview room is equipped with a non-recordable camera that displays an image on a television located in the lobby area of the bureau. The camera?s inability to record has prevented us from capturing important body language and other telling signs of deception that will aid in the prosecution of subjects. Currently the digital voice recording devices are being utilized to record interviews. This has put our investigators at a disadvantage because it does not show the emotion that can be very compelling during an interview with victims and subjects. These emotions have proved to be a crucial element when presenting cases for court purposes. Project Summary The project will seek to improve the existing method our investigators have been using to conduct interviews. The digital recording device will allow investigators to capture audio and video during interviews. These interviews will be recorded and saved within a computer database for criminal prosecution. In addition to the ability to capture an interview. the digital recordings will be available to off-site investigators who have access to their computers. The upgrade from our current technology will be a great improvement that will allow our investigators to optimize their enforcement efforts.
