ELECTRONIC FINGERPRINTING UPDATES POLICE TECHNOLOGY
LiveScan is an inkless, electronic fingerprinting process for
transmitting information to various state and federal agencies for
identity and criminal record verification when someone is arrested for a
Class C or above criminal offense. The electronic process will
eliminate many of the problems associated with ink prints such as
smudging, smearing, over- or under-inking and speeds up the processing
to hours instead of days.
How does it work? Following an arrest, an officer will scan the
fingerprints of the arrestee using a touch print panel. The
process reduces the likelihood of illegible fingerprints or missing
information on the fingerprint card. It is faster and cleaner than
the old method and the officer knows immediately if the print is of
sufficient quality.
Some jobs require fingerprints, including real estate licensees,
notaries, vehicle dealers, driving instructors, foster parents,
teachers, appraisers, elder care givers, as well as anyone having
contact with children or the elderly, to name a few.
This system can interface with the automated fingerprint identification
system and results with name and criminal history comes in minutes
instead of days. Electronic fingerprinting is fast becoming an
internationally recognized form of identification and we are pleased
that Sachse is able to offer the latest in police technology.
2008 TOY DRIVE KICKS OFF WITH $250 DONATION

Tracy Pounders with Linebarger, Goggan, Blair & Sampson, LLP,
the city's tax attorneys, donated $250 cash to the Sachse Fraternal
Order of Police Christmas Toy Drive for 2008. The 2007 campaign
was very successful and the organization was able to provide toys for
several needy families in the Sachse area with a few left to carry over
for next year. Mr. Pounders feels that the FOP Toy Drive is an
extremely worthwhile cause and was pleased to be the first cash
contributor for the 2008 drive. Pictured left to right: Police
Chief Dennis Veach, Tracy Pounders, Officer Ronnie Davis and Sergeant
Richard Oliver. Officer Davis and Sergeant Oliver have been
involved with the Sachse FOP and Christmas Toy Drive for several years
and enjoy being able to provide Santa Clause to as many children as
possible.
