ABSTRACT
Tracking system has been used since 1985, linking seemingly unrelated violent crime investigations and helping state and local law enforcement solve cases. This powerful and easy to use electronic case management software is designed to assist investigators in managing files from initial incident to court disclosure. The software features include: incident capture, case management, task management, disclosure management, access control, system and officer generated link analysis charts, timeline charting, volume reporting, hyper-linked and indexed case reports and more. The world over, it is indisputable that the introduction of computer technology in different facets of life, has virtually transformed and entranced information processing, which is very vital in any organization or parastatals of government. Not only as a means of information processing, the technology has also proved to be the fastest means of information retrieval, which forms the nucleus of this study.
This work tries to x- ray the role of the computer in crime investigation as it affects the Nigerian police. This research work will cover the following areas: record information retrieval relating to MIS (Management information system), retirement Cretan for officers and crime mapping through a data bank of crime related information. A detailed design of a computerized approach that will bring the much needed innovation is given. Also included in this work is a proper documentation for the new system design.
