The new unit is part of a $600,000 state-funded grant helping to support cases being investigated at all 24 police departments in Lake County, Indiana.
"Browser history tells a lot of somebody's prepping to do something," Rodriguez said. "Recently, we had a phone that actually had the murder on it, the shooting."
And, those types of investigations are what third-year forensics and chemistry student Joshua Buggs is eager to help solve.He grew up in nearby Gary, Indiana, and with the unit being at his school, it will also allow students like him to be deputized to help with cases. "I know of crime and how it's a thing in the community, and if I can help alleviate that, and help solve these mysteries and generally help people, that would be the greatest thing I ever do," Buggs said.
The grant will fund this unit for two years. Carter says lawmakers have promised him it will be renewed, and says it is here to stay.
