. >> sergeant prea. it was excellent. thank you very much. >> you didn't catch me at my best. sorry. >> you did a very fine job. thank you to your staff. i just want to echo the president's recognizing the chief in foresight in making this a priority in terms of increasing the staff at the lab and in supporting the fine work at the lab with this extra staffing and funding. the outsourcing that you reference, what is being outsourced at this time? >> the outsourcing is part of our backlog strategy which is a two prong approach. first is we have federal backlog production grant money. the nia has given over $400 million for backlog because this is a situation that faces every crime lab. and cases which pose the greatest immediate to public safety including crimes involves violence and cases they we out source are routinely crimes against persons, property crimes, vehicle thefts. we also reluctantly on behalf of the staff out there send sexual assault cases out to our out source vendor laboratory. we have a system set up in place now where we have a cue for sexual assault cases.

that evidence is transported to the crime lab and they go into captain prea and if they reach ten, he out sources it. it's not so common that we want to say stop the presses. we have to say now, we have a suspect, right now in that series cases. we wanted to stop and get them as quick as possible. stop your machines, stop your criminalist and let's get on this, that would be a priority request from us. all of the sexual assault case is a priority case. they make sure they get from the property to the crime lab and they get assigned to a criminalist right away. by the in nature of this crime these cases are prioritized. these additional criminalist, they are better scheduled, there are so many things that the crime lab has changed, under the leadership of the chief. we build in a prioritization. every single case that we get gets to captain prea and their people. >> that sounds like tremendous progress. was there an effort to look back to make sure that prioritization was back then. >> it's a very complicate movement and everything has to be in sync. the individuals that we have will p

presentation is commissioner loftus will be on the state of sexual assault dna testing and captain dan prea. >> thank you. i asked for a presentation from the department on whether or not we are testing a kit whether there is a backlog that exist. i know for a time there was a backlog in the crime lab in 2010 and i asked for an up date from the department and where we are in terms of resources and any improvement we've seen and where work needs to be done so i look forward to hearing about the department about where we are at. >> good evening, president mazzucco, vice-president marshall. i'm the community for the services division for the police department. my presentation is on the sexual assault crime lab and the improvement that we have made under the chief's administration. the the crime lab is accredited by the national accrediting body that provides the best practices and inspection for crime labs so everybody that is operating in the same manner and it's required for lab to conduct testing. our crime lab currently uses four scientific disciplines for analyzing evidence. first it's fo

in the end, i believe we will preas a rule and those who wrote off gun safety legislation last month it was the turning point. completely agree. brian sullivan? >> i'll take the other side of this a little bit. >> good. i'm looking for it. >> i have family members that are in the nra, all right? >> okay. >> that side is one thing. but i think we need to understand -- we dug into this in our documentary is that most gun crime, 96% of gun crime is committed by people who did not buy the gun themselves. people sharing guns now. i think we need to be careful about the discussion about what guns are really being used. if mika goes and buys a shotgun you'll signed your name on a form and very likely you'll commit a crime. you're saying i'm willing to give up my individual sort of secrecy or privacy to get this gun. from the political angle, more of your guys's wheelhouse. i think we need to understand where the gun crime law laid. a gun well taken care of will last a hundred years. 310 million guns in the united states right now. how do we solve that problem? even if we stop making all gun
