History
In the 1970s, the Ocean County Sheriff's Office started its Criminal Investigations Unit. In 1979, the Department's Criminal Identification Bureau implemented a high-speed information retrieval system for storage and retrieval of photos and fingerprint information, becoming the first law enforcement agency in New Jersey to use this technology. In the 1980s the department added a forensics team. This team in 1981 was among the first to use crazy glue for the detection of latent prints. That same year the force was also the first in New Jersey to use a laser in an investigation. The department has reported that its crime lab is renowned and has been used by the FBI and in training the United States Secret Service. Later in 1991 the department was the first to have its own in-house DNA testing. The OCSD has the highest number of hits for finger print databases.
