Additional Comments:
This unique suspect recognition search engine will provide NAMACC with greater insight and lead generation by allowing users to quickly search and compare a suspect’s digital image to publicly available online images from public-only web sources to include mugshot websites and news media. Note: The identification of a possible match candidate is not considered a positive identification of a subject and shall be treated as an investigative lead only. Such identification, on its own, does not establish probable cause to make an arrest or obtain an arrest or search warrant, absent the development of corroborative information through additional investigation by the assigned investigator.
