In January 1967 a new rival to the scientific laboratory and fingerprint identification service provided to all police agencies emerged in the National Crime Information Center. This computerized index of information concerning crime and criminals was installed in the Washington headquarters of the FBI, to complement the metropolitan and statewide electronic systems. The center includes data on stolen automobiles, certain stolen property, and all wanted persons. More than one million active records are on file. Vigorous research continues on the collection and storage of other criminal statistics and crime data. The center’s vital information is available almost immediately to any police officer through radio communication and electronic means.
Average citizens are informed of the crime trends in the nation and their own community through the Uniform Crime Reporting Program, which collects, analyzes, and publishes crime figures for the Unites States.
Trained Special Agent. The third basic component in the daily operations of the FBI is the trained special agent. The bureau selects candidates for agent with care. Any U.S. citizens, age 23 to 34, who is a graduate of a law school, or who is a graduate of a resident four-year college dealing with accounting or physical science, or who is fluent in a language for which the bureau has a need, or who has three years of other specialized experience, is eligible. A lawyer has the analytical approach and logical method important for the investigation of criminal cases. The accountants are invaluable also, for much of the bureau’s work is connected with business operations.
These highly educated agents first have initial training – they work with older and more experienced agents. For all the agents there are special refreshing courses and special programs, so constant training is held periodically.
Special Investigation Division. Organized crime is a lawless empire making money from gambling, narcotics, prostitution, extortion, etc. For years organized crime operated behind an impenetrable wall built on fear, bribery, and force.
FBI officers are doing their best to find criminals and to bring them to court. Their aim is to collect evidence for it. Cooperation is very important in the fight against organized crime.
FBI officers work in close cooperation with state and local agencies.
This division also tries to locate escaped prisoners or deserters from the Armed Forces.
