Booking and Fingerprint Sections
The Sheriff’s Office processes approximately 29,000 defendants and suspects annually. The booking process includes the taking of fingerprints, photographs and DNA as well as the collecting of current pedigree information.
The fingerprints are taken on a “Live-Scan” device which allows officers to electronically submit the fingerprints to the NJ State Police for further classification and record checks.
