Mugshot Booking Photo Comparison

Mugshot Booking Photo Comparison Project Documents

1 PROJECT CHARTER

The Mugshot Booking Photo comparison project will be a regional Facial Search System for law enforcement. This system will allow investigators to use digital images of suspects to search against mugshot booking photos. This project is a result of funding from a Department of Homeland Security (DHS) grant under the Urban Area Security Initiative (UASI) awarded to Seattle Police Department to implement such a system with regional scope.

The outcome of this project will be a system that includes categorized mugs hots from King County Jail, South Correctional Entity (SCORE), Snohomish County and four Pierce County Jails. A proprietary search server will be available via the web to take digital pictures and determine if return a match within the categorized mugshots. Agencies will be able search using a web based client. A limited number of Advanced Facial Examiner software tools that can correct and enhance digital images prior to submitting a search will also be available.

Using this system will allow Detectives and Crime Analyst to effectively use the everincreasing number of digital images they receive. The technology contemplated to use under this grant has been implemented in other departments, leading to an increase in in arrests by as much as 20%.

Approximately five years of categorized mugshots will be available for law enforcement agencies to search. The search capability will be available to law enforcement agencies within each of the three counties. When they receive probable match the investigator will receive the mugshot record of the person. They will likely need to take the personal information and run an individual search in another tool to get detailed information.

We will engage a vendor that has successfully implemented similar size facial recognition and mugshot booking systems. Dynamic Imaging was selected as the best value vendor as both a mugshot booking and facial recognition system by South Sound 911. SPD will engage the vendor to provide technology and services outlined in this document. The Project Manager and Grant Administrator will. oversee the vendor and coordinate with the individual LE' s and jailing agencies to on-board both end users and mugshot booking data.

The project charter defines the scope, objectives, and overall approach for the work to be completed. It is a critical element for initiating, planning, executing, controlling, and assessing the project. It should be the single point of reference on the project for goals and objectives, scope, organization, estimates, work plan, and budget. In addition, it serves as a contract between the Project Team and the Project Sponsors, stating what will be delivered according to the budget, time constraints, risks, resources, and standards agreed upon for the project.

2 PROJECT EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

• The outcome of the project will be a regional Booking Photo Comparison system. This will contain King, Pierce, and Snohomish county bookings. The standard search capability will be available to any Law Enforcement agency within the three counties.

Page2 4/2/2014


There will be four Facial Examiner advanced workstations to correct poor quality digital images to be submitted for searches.

• Benefit -Significant increase in leads where digital evidence is collected in relation to a crime, there has been an increase of 20% leading to convictions where digital evidence was available.

• Costs - $350K (UASI grant funded)

• Timeline- The timeline will start as soon as the project is initiated. Once initiated it will take 4 to 6 month to execute on the goals and objectives.

• Scope- All infrastructure and connectivity to convert 5 year of mugshots from King, Pierce, Snohomish counties and make searching available to all agencies within the above-mentioned Counties

• Approach

o The vendor will pre-configure all hosting hardware prior to shipping

o Hosting agency will receive and have the infrastructure up and ready to have Picturelink installed

o Law Enforcement Agencies will have the Facial Examiner Workstataion configured and installed

o All connectivity will be made between the jails and the hosting facility

o The vendor will analyze the most efficient categorization approach

o The vendor will categorize approximately 5 years of mugshot photos

o PM will coordinate between the vendor, jails, and law enforcement agencies.

o Training will be provided to end-users

o Final evaluation and handoff to operations

3 PROJECT BENEFIT

Detectives and Crime Analysts receive an average of 10 images of suspects per week. From which less that 5% turn into leads. That is 520 pieces of digital evidence that leads to approximately 26 leads in a year. However insert the Mugshot Booking Photo Comparison System and you can expect to increase that to 20% based on the NYPD statistics and you have 104 leads. This will also drastically reduce the time spent by investigative resources combing through thousands of demographic based searches.

Having images from three facilities further enhances the systems capability. We are currently limited to searching only jails that fall within the jurisdiction of a given agency. This will open the investigative search capability to three counties versus one city or municipality. Having regional mugshot to search against will lead to a force multiplier whereby those involved in criminal behavior cannot hide beyond jurisdictional boundaries after being sought for crimes.

NOTE: We need to have a baseline and measuring stick for the system. This will be used for further funding justification.

2-D Face Recognition

The goal of this project is to have a computer recognize a person from an image

of his or her face. There are many applications for face recognition. Some

examples are: access control, summarizing surveillance video, browsing image

and video databases and user-interfaces. The face recognition problem is broken

into two important steps. The first is aligning the face to a standard position, size

and rotation. This is done by finding a number of facial feature points (such as

the corners of the eyes, the tip of the nose, etc) and mapping those points to

standard positions. The next step is to compare two aligned faces to get a

similarity score. As the major improvement in the past year, we reduced the

memory size by 75% and the error rate by 50%.

Background & Objective: Our objective is to develop a state of the art face

recognition system. We have been mostly focused on an access control scenario

in which the user rnust cooperate to gain access to a secure room or building. In

this scenario lighting can be controlled to a large extent to insure good image

quality. We are now beginning to concentrate on less controlled scenarios such

as walk-through face recognition or surveillance scenarios in which pose and

lighting are much less controlled.

Technical Discussion: The face detection and alignment step is done using the

Viola-Jones detection framework developed at MERL. This framework yields very

fast and accurate detectors for finding faces and facial feature points. The next

step of comparing two aligned faces is currently done using quantized features

that are simple Haar-like wavelets. These features are selected using the

Ada Boost learning algorithm to best separate pairs of face images of different

people from pairs of face images of the same person. After the recognition

classifier is trained on a large set of example faces, new pairs of faces that have

never been seen before can be compared.

Images of faces, represented as high-dimensional pixel arrays, often belong to a manifold of intrinsically low dimension. Face recognition, and computer vision research in general, has witnessed a growing interest in techniques that capitalize on this observation, and apply algebraic and statistical tools for extraction and analysis of the underlying manifold. In this chapter we describe in roughly chronological order techniques that identify, parameterize and analyze linear and nonlinear subspaces, from the original Eigenfaces technique to the recently introduced Bayesian method for probabilistic similarity analysis, and discuss comparative experimental evaluation of some of these techniques. We also discuss practical issues related to the application of subspace methods for varying pose, illumination and expression. 1 Face Space and its Dimensionality Computer analysis of face images deals with a visual signal (light reacted o_ the surface of a face) that is registered by a digital sensor as an array of pixel values. The pixels may encode color or only intensity; In this chapter we will assume the latter case, i.e. gray-level imagery. After proper normalization and resizing to a _xed m-by-n size, the pixel array can be represented as a point (i.e. vector) in an mn-dimensional image space by simply writing its pixel values in a _xed (typically raster) order. A critical issue in the analysis of such multi-dimensional data is the dimensionality, the number of coordinates necessary to specify a data point. Below we discuss the factors a_ecting this number in the case of face images. 1.1 Image Space vs. Face Space In order to specify an arbitrary image in the image space, one needs to specify every pixel value. Thus the \nominal" dimensionality of the space, dictated by the pixel representation, is mn - a very high number even for images of modest 2 Chapter 7: Shakhnarovich & Moghaddam size. Recognition methods that operate on this representation su_erfrom a number of potential disadvantages, most of them rooted in the so-called curse of dimensionality: _ Handling high-dimensional examples, especially in the context of similarity/ matching-based recognition, is computationally expensive. _ For parametric methods, the number of parameters one needs to estimate typically grows exponentially with the dimensionality. Often this number is much higher than the number of images available for training, making the estimation task in the image space ill-posed. _Similarly, for non-parametric methods, the sample complexity {the number of examples needed to e_ciently represent the underlying distribution of the data { is prohibitively high. However, much of the surface of a face is smooth and has regular texture. Therefore, per-pixel sampling is in fact unnecessarily dense: The value of a pixel is typically highly correlated with the values of the surrounding pixels. Moreover, the appearance of faces is highly constrained; for example, any frontal view of a face is roughly symmetrical, has eyes on the sides, nose in the middle, etc. A vast proportion of the points in the image space does not represent physically possible faces. Thus, the natural constraints dictate that the face images will in fact

Will The London Riots Be The Turning Point For Facial Recognition As A Crime-Fighting Tool? If you riot, social media will be used to track you down. That is no longer a surprise to anyone. A new

twist in social media surveillance work following the London riots, though, may be the use of facial

LONDON (AP)- Facial recognition technology being considered for London's 2012 Games is getting a workout in the wake of Britain's riots, a senior police chief told The Associated Press, with officers feeding photographs of suspects through Scotland Yard's newly updated facematching program.

Chief Constable Andy Trotter of the British Transport Police said Thursday the sophisticated software was being used to help find those suspected of being involved in the worst unrest London has seen in a generation.

Facial recognition technology is already widely employed by free-to-use websites such as Facebook and Google Inc.'s Picasa photo-sharing program. Such programs have been of increasing interest to authorities as well. A person with the Olympic planning committee, speaking to the AP on condition of anonymity because of the sensitivity of security preparations, said that facial recognition software was being considered for use as a security measure during the Olympic Games.

This project will allow Forensic Specialist to run comparison facial images to an existing image data base of???? potential known comparisons image base. This is an emerging technology that is establishing a investigative tool that will enhance response and investigation after a terrorist attack. It will also work to reduce a technology gap that now exists in the identification of individuals who have the intent on doing target surveillance where perimeter cameras capture facial images that are usable for comparison value , but have no capability to do so.

This project will purchase facial recognition software, digital server, base reference buildout, multi portrait application processing, face DB Administration program. Upload file transfer of 1,000,000 images from WINS/JEMS Image data base. Provide onsite training for forensic specialists on facial comparison technology. 2b Identify the specific and/or UASI Strategy goals l. title, citation numeric and objectives supported by this project (For UASI 2. title, citation numeric funded projects, cite both. For state agencies, 3. title, citation numeric provide links to State Homeland Security Strategy only.) 2c How does your project support Strategic Plan listed above? Required: Describe those linkages precisely and succinctly below.

This project provides an investigative forensic photographic tool that does not currently exist at a regional level. This project would reduce the silo effect of retaining possible terrorist suspect photos to one agency. With a Tri-County approach to sharing facial recognition software and running comparisons in a 3 county image database approach, images could then be compared and shared. (TCL #6) The advantages to a counter-terror investigation in utilizing the latest bio facial forensic software is it would allow the investigation to continue to move forward, especially if digital images existed of possible suspect with no known identifier to a name. This image could then be compared to other existing image databanks for possible indentification. (TCL #9) This software would now allow image collection and storage of suspicious individuals without any other known identifiers other then facial algorithm methodology. TCL #7

The Seattle Police Department has been working towards implementing a Booking Photo Comparison

Software System for almost 5 years. In 2012 partial funds were appropriated by Homeland Security UASI

Grant to research the feasibility to implement a system that could be utilized within a 3 county region.

These counties include Snohomish, King and Pierce.

A regional biometric advisory group consisting of law enforcement representation from these 3 counties

was established to discuss policy and procedures, infrastructure compatibility, benchmarks, timelines

and deliverables in case future funding presented itself to go forward with this project.

In 2013 another Homeland Security UASI grant was awarded making it possible to move forward with

finalizing ACLU endorsed policies that will govern the strict operation of this software. This funding if

approved for spending authority by the City Council will allow the purchase of 5 workstations, these 5

workstations will be distributed to King County Major Crimes Section, Seattle Police Forensic and Digital

Imaging Section, Bellevue Major Crimes Section, South Sound Real Time Crime Center, and Everett

Police Department Detective Unit.

These 5 work stations will be connected to a main server located in the South Sound Real Crime Center

in Pierce County. This server will contain approximately 350,000 images of individuals who have been

arrested, fingerprinted, photographed and booked into one of the three counties adult correctional

facilities. There will be no juvenile records stored or retained on this server.

All 3 Counties must adhere to the booking photo comparison software policies in order to participate in

this program. Currently the following agencies support going forward with this proposal, Auburn,

Burien, Des Moines, Federal Way, Kent, Renton, SeaTac, Tukwila, South Sound Realtime Crime Center,

Pierce County Sheriff's Department, Everett Police Department, Snohomish Sheriff's Department, King

County Sheriff's Department, Seattle Police Department, and Bellevue Police Department.

If spending authority is granted by the Seattle City Council, a vendor will be selected, Mutual

Agreements of Understanding will be signed between the 3 counties to provide booking photos to the

central server, hardware and software purchased, installed and tested, with final acceptance of concept

and implementation by September 2014.

Please be advised that with this software system we are not asking to do anymore then what we legally

can do now. If we have a photo of a suspect that was involved in a crime, we take that photo and

manually look through booking photos to find individuals that look similar to the suspect. This system if

approved will allow law enforcement to look at 3 counties worth of booking photos, utilizing cutting

edge technology algorithms that locate individual matching points of eyes, ears, nose, and chin. These

algorithms work by measuring distances between points on a face. It is a mathematical algorithm similar

to how a point on a latent print is analyzed. This software algorithm will not do comparisons based on

sex, hair, or color of skin, those factors simply do not compute or allow for a successful comparison

search. It has to be a measurable distance between points on a face.

This is a biometric technology that is currently where AFIS was twenty years ago. The FBI is currently

working to implement a national data base where all fingerprints and mugshots are cataloged together

in one search data base. In previous years photos and mug shots have always been on separate data

bases.

I can see in the near future where the ownership of this program is transitioned over to the King County

Regional AFIS program. It is unfortunate that they are not at a point to accept this program and may be

ready in a few years to take responsibility for the ongoing operation and support of this program. It is

basically a biometric search engine similar to how they conduct fingerprint searches.

Good morning Renee, I wanted to check back in on the interview request and and give you an Update that maybe could make things more flexible in terms of scheduling.

Turns out, I have another photographer who says he's available to shoot today (Thursday). He's already going to be downtown around noon for a separate interview and I was wondering if Chief Best or someone in the public information office might be able to talk with him about the facial recognition software proposal and what it couid do for law enforcement

His interview is at 12: i 5pm-12:45pm, so any time before or after would work great for him if it does for you. (The other availability, just so you don't have to go back and look it up, is between 8am-10am on Friday).

Please let me know what you think, I think it's really important to get the SPD viewpoint in this story.

Sincerely,

Owen

P.S. In case you're curious, CCTV America is Ch 334 on Comcast here in Seattle.

I'm sorry for the short deadline (although l guess it's actually a bit longer than when I was in local news), and I appreciate anything you or Chief Best can do. I'm totally willing to meet at SPD HQ or wherever is convenient, and right now it looks like any time between 8am-1 Oam is the best bet for Friday.

Hi Renee, Jeff, Mark, (I also sent this request to Sean's email, but got an auto-reply saying he's out of the office)

Long time no talk, this is Owen Lei, formerly of KING, on a freelance assignment for CCTV America (kind of like the Chinese version of BBC News, so American news with global focus). They've asked me to shoot a news story for them about the SPD proposal to use facial recognition software for matching suspects in surveillance video to a database of photos.

I'm hoping you might be able to help me schedule an interview with someone in the department who can talk with me (I understand Asst. Chief Best spoke before City Council members on the issue?). Some other cities like Oakland are looking at this technology too, and CCTV thinks it would make for an interesting national/international piece about the tug-of-war between ensuring public safety through new technology and making sure that same technology doesn't infringe on personal privacy. I believe it's really important to get a law enforcement viewpoint in the piece.

They're sending a camera crew to work with me on Friday morning, so if there is anything you can do to help me out, I'd really appreciate it. Please feel free to email or give me a call on my cell at !fli~!t\L:

if you have any questions. Thank you for anything!

Dear Ms. Schlenker,

Your name was given to me by our I.T. Director Mark Knutson in regards to a question I am hoping to have answered, involving a project I am working on here at SPD. I have recently received funding and authorization to purchase what we are calling a Booking Photo Comparison Software Project. This project is designed to utilize mug shots from Pierce, Snohomish and King County to do investigative work when reasonable suspicion exists that a crime has been committed. If an image of a suspect exists that is related to that crime, we will then use that image to compare it to the known data base of mug shots.

A part of this project, will be to install a server at the King County Data Center to support hosting over 500,000 mug shots. We met with Darryl Hunt from the l<ing County Data Center last week and discussed the logistics of locating our server at the l<ing County facility. Darryl indicated that the City of Seattle has open rack space that is not being used at this time. He suggested I make contact with City of Seattle DOlT and see if it would be possible to locate our server within the unused rack space. We will be using the King County network and will have no network connectivity to the City of Seattle.

1

So to get back to my original purpose of this email, would your department be willing to allow us to house the BPCS server in the DOlT rack.? I think we would need maybe four slots to fit the server. I have no idea the impact of this request on your department, and understand you will have multiple questions in regards to this project. So please fill free to contact me at your convenience via my desk phone 615.1555 or cell 206.423.3382. I will look forward to a discussing any concerns or questions you may have about the Booking Photo Comparison Software Project.

Respectfully,

Karim Miller Manager- Forensics and Digital Imaging Seattle Police Department

Mark,

Apparently the City of Seattle already has some rack space dedicated for City use at the King County Data Center that is not being used. Would you know who I could talk to over in DOlT that might have information on this. When we met with Darryl Hunt of King County, he indicated that there was still a few slots for servers that if we tentatively could locate the BFCS server in those slots there would be very little cost to our program.

Any ideas, let me know.

Thanks,

Hope this finds you doing well. It appears that the funding will be moving forward and getting approved from the full City Council. This means I need to start making contact with the respective agencies. Who could you direct me to that would be the Director over King County JEMS.? I hope the process will be similar to what we did in the past, explain the program, defining personnel and infrastructure impacts, getting a MOU signed, discussing logistic of a reasonable time frame to get the Booking Photo Comparison Software operational. I understand the issues and demands you are facing with your county wide server upgrade. However it would be nice to get the preliminary work out of the way with a signed MOU from the DAJD Director, and have preliminary discussion with yourself, Steve, and Dennis Fang from King County who we worked with previously.

If you can forward a couple of names who you think would work to make contact with to start a MOU that would be greatly appreciated.

I am not sure if you and Margaret (Mallory Group) had time to catch up after the City Council meeting last week, but I thought that it may be time to generate a formal guotc for SPD. My thought was to generate a quote forSOOk templates (T know that your current db has 350k images) so this would give you room for growth (5 yrs) and 2 users licenses, two years of support and maintenance.

If this is OK, please give me the go-ahead. At that time, I will submit the guote to The Mallory Gmup and they will generate a final quote from you, on letterhead.

We learned with ICV and ALPR that we can anticipate receiving PRA requests for the proposed BPCS. Requesters will likely seek the actual contents of the system as well as database code and log information, request forms, etc. We can anticipate voluminous requests similar to those made by Eric Rachner and Tracy Vedder.

Now is the time to look at these matters, so they may be considered before the system is purchased. It was a pleasure working with you on the Fisher case, but I'd prefer we use our time more productively by avoiding problems before they arise.

Please let me know who would be the appropriate people to discuss this.

I'm writing to update you on the status of the Booking Photo Comparison System (Facial Recognition) project proposal that is currently trying to work its way through the Seattle City Council process. At yesterday's Meeting of the Public Safety, Civil Rights, and Technology Committee, there was discussion of the project, and KIRO TV has picked up the story - follow this link for KIRO coverage:

The Committee met on February 5 to discuss this, but the matter was pushed forward to February 19 because of low attendance due to the Sea hawks celebration that was going on at that time. There was one speaker who voiced his opinions on the project at that time. Follow this link to view the committee meeting from February

Most of the comments feel that this is a surveillance system as opposed to an investigative tool.

Committee background briefing and discussion begins at 43:14 of the video. Based on procedural matters (an incorrect title in the legislation's title referencing 2013 instead of 2014)- the matter will now be heard by the full Seattle City Council on March 5.

I encourage you to review the videos of these proceedings.

I know many of you are in support of this project, and I hope that this information is useful in keeping you informed as to its status and progress.

Britt,

Here is the question that came in. I appreciate in advance you taking the time to get this back to me as soon as possible.

Thank you,

Mark

I was just notified that there will be someone from the Human Rights Commission at the Committee table today. They had one follow up question that will also be discussed:

"What is the threshold of match resemblance needed to pursue someone based only on their photo?"

l<arim or Mark, can you let me know asap? I think what they are trying to get at is how accurate are the comparisons. Will we get 5 possible matches for every photo we run?

Thanks, Angela

Subject: FW: Regional Booking Photo Comparison Update

Having a working Regional Biometric system will allow the Kent Police Department to become more efficient in regards to solving cases. Since 2008, our crime analyst has put out 229 bulletins in regards to suspects of crimes in which we have video. We average about 5% of those cases being solved by the bulletins. Having a system to compare our suspects with a database would be huge in allowing our clearance rate to increase. Officers also have been pulling more video of crimes they are investigating. The officers then put out emails to the department trying to identify their suspects. Most of those crimes are now closed and the suspect goes free. Having a Biometric system that they can use to identify their suspects, will allow them to spend less time wondering who the suspect is, and will giveth em more time to go out and arrest them. This system is long over due and would hugely impact our ability to identify those criminals that are currently getting away with crime.

Tuesday, SPD Asst. Chief Carmen Best and Forensics Manager Karim Miller presented the Regional Mugs hot Booking Photo Comparison project to the Seattle City Council. The Council's approval is the final obstacle in moving forward with funding. The funding is for a regional system to search against J(ing, Snohomish, and Pierce County mug shots in the investigation of criminal activity where digital evidence is available. The meeting was chaired by Council person Harrell, although there was limited attendance from the public due to the Sea hawks Parade, an ACLU representative that SPD has worked with to craft the policy was in attendance and showed support.

The Council had several questions regarding the policy. Most questions involved who would have access to the technology and under what circumstances they could invoke searches. The Asst. Chief and Karim effectively answered the question and put initial concerns to rest. They stressed the capability will be used solely in by qualified investigators and under circumstances where there is cause. Council person Harrell deferred approval to the next Council meeting in two weeks, likely because of the empty

chambers.

We encourage you to show your support for this regional law enforcement capability by replying to this email. A brief note as to how this might help your agency. For Example:

Our department receives [approximate number] of photographs of people involved in crimes per month; most of these crimes go unresolved. With this system we could significantly reduce time spent performing unsuccessful manual searche :. This system system has proven greater accuracy resulting in mare leads and greater arrests.

1

Look for an update after the next Council meeting in a couple of weeks. Contact me with any questions and concerns. Please pass on to your colleagues in the King, Snohomish, and Pierce region.

Regards,

Sent: Tuesday, February 18, 2014 12:20 PM To: Best, Carmen; Mount, Mark; Miller, Karim; Grossman, Kevin Subject: Booking Photo Comparison Software - Privacy Questions Importance: High

Good morning, CM Harrell's office sent the following list of questions regarding the Booking Photo Comparison Software policy. Please review the answers in red, especially the answer to Q3 in the second set of questions, and let me know by 2pm if you have any suggested revisions. These questions/answers will be discussed at tomorrow's PSCRT Committee meeting. I need to send our response to Harrell's staff for distribution this afternoon.

Thanks, Angela

Seattle Privacy list (40 people) questions 1) How is a "suspect" defined?

2) What's to limit what photos will be dumped into the database? E.g., mention was made of a WA DOL facial recognition database (from drivers licenses?)

3) What's to prevent usage creep over time?

4) The bill funds the whole DHS continuing saga, NOT just the new Booking Photo Comparison System. Committee meetings should be discussing ALL aspects of the funding, not just the new addition. For example, we vigorously oppose continued funding of the Fusion Center in the light of the Snowden revelations about abuse of data gathering systems on the federal level.

I've taken a look at the Booking Photo Comparison Software policy and I have some questions. I think these questions are mostly driven by my lack of tech savvy, so I apologize for that.

1

1) Is the intent to give officers the authority to photograph anyone individual who is stopped pursuant to Terry v. Ohio? Could an officer just use his cell phone to take pictures of a suspect and ask for someone to look for a match?

2) How long would the process of obtaining the results of an image comparison take? Terry permits brief, investigative stops. I'd like to make sure that the length of the stop is not extended too much by this.

3) Can SPD record the race of each individual for whom an inquiry is made? It would be useful to track this.

Matt,

I had a conversation with Carol Gillespie from King County AFIS and she is still supportive of trying to locate the server in a King County Facility. So She gave me an IT contact of a Daryl Hunt from King County. I am trying to coordinate a meeting with him on Monday around 1 PM. I know it is a short notice but if you have time available and would like to come along on Monday that would be very helpful.

I think the purpose of the meeting is to introduce the project to him, see what role and responsibility they would consider in regards to the server. According to Carol AFIS and SPD have empty cabinet space in their facility that we may be able to park a server in .... ? I think it is worth at least meeting with him to see what the possibilities might be .... ?

Let me know if you can meet. The next meeting in front of the Council is for this Wed. 2 PM. Same players, same questions, hopefully everyone agrees the project can move forward and spending authority can be granted.

Let me know what your thoughts are on this meeting.

Thanks,

Karim

Karim-

Hope all is well in Seattle. It was nice seeing you at the recent "mobile" demo at King County.

l wanted to follow up with you on the facial recognition project that you and I and Gordon began talking about early last year. I see in the news that SPD is looking to move forward with this project. I know that you had used a very early form of the MorphoTrak solution however, it has grown leaps and bounds since that time and I'd really like the opportunity to present to you and your team what we have to offer to SPD today.

Our facial solution is divided into a couple different areas and can be served up as needed. \N e offer it as simple as a mug book/ line· up type of solution to a sophisticated product that can enhance photos that are not offered in the best condition for identification purposes and lastly our video capture that runs continuously and can be set up against a watch list. I've attached a couple datasheets with some of this information however, what I would really like is to have a brief conversation with you about your current project plans and see if MT can set up a demo in the near future to show you what we have to offer.

Please let me know when we can set up a time to speak in the next week or. I look forward to hearing back from you soon.

~ Management Review Report- SPD Latent Print Unit

On March 24, 2014 Karlin Miller, Donna West, Betty Newlin, and Katie Hosteny met as part of the Management Review to discuss the following eleven criteria.

1. Customer service feedback and complaints

Customer Service Feedback Surveys were distributed in October 2013 to 18 SPD Follow-up Unit Sergeants, nvo UWPD Detectives, and ten prosecuting attorney's from the King County Prosecutor's Office. Eight feedback surveys were retumed. All eight of these surveys rated the timeliness of response by the LPU to compa:tison and processing requests as excellent. All eight of these surveys ranked the cmmnunication received from the LPU regm·ding requests for exa:tnination or processing as verv open and helpful.

One suggestion for improvement by Erin C. Jany from the Seattle City Attorney's Office, Criminal Division was to provide their office with a general script for latent print expert testi:tnony as many of their prosecutors do not have experience with latent print testi:tnony. LPE Rachel Forbes attempted to contact Erin Jany and the Seattle City Attorney's Office but did not receive a response.

The other feedback received includes: • Always available for callouts. Thorough and professional - Sgt. Aratani, Robbery Unit. • SSTF has had an excellent, ongoing working relationship with the Latent Print Unit - Del. Sa:tn

Vradenburg, SSTF • Great customer service! Always helpful and notifies me by telephone when they got a hit on prints that l

have submitted- Del. Willia:tn Bergin, UWPD • Sharon Brazalovich met with Detective Emerick at a bmgla:ty crime scene and thoroughly processed it.

13-200652- Sgt. Durden, Burgla:ty/Theft North • I have always received excellent customer service a:tJd professionalism from the staff- Del. W. Bresko,

UWPD

In order to receive more feedback an SPDAil email could be sent out ensuring that everyone in the Department has the oppmtunity to provide feedback. In addition, a second feedback survey fonn could be created specifically to distribute after LPU-administered training classes.

The LPU did not receive any customer complaints between March 2013 and March 2014.

2. Bacldog and case load assessment

Betty Newlin provided a Q and Tech File status update. As of3/24/2014, the Q contains 171 cases dating back to 111/2014 and the Tech File contains 64 cases dating back to 11110/2013. At the end of 2013 there were 300 cases in the Q. Before Ron Smith & Associates was hired for the bacldog reduction project in June 2012 the Unit backlog was at approximately 500 cases.

3. Adequacy of staffing levels

Currently, the LPU has three vacant LPE positions; soon to be four with the Senior LPE set to retire at the end of July, and possible five. Five vacant positions most likely will not be an adequate level of staff to maintain our current backlog, especially with the munber of projects currently being worked on that are taking personnel away from casework. The only acceptable staffmg level is full employment. The LPU is projected to reach fnll employment within three to four years. The pool of qualified applicants has been very low in recent years. The Personnel Department is the weak link in screening and fmwarding applications to the LPU.

The International Association for Identification has been contacted to place a job listing on their website which instrncts interested applicants to FAX their resnme to the LPU, therefore bypassing any chance of applications not being fmwarded to the LPU.

4. Adequacy oflaboratory equipment

The LPU is fortunate to have available a plethora of specialized laboratory equipment. In 2013 and early 2014 the lab acquired a new superglue frnning tlnee-pmt chamber to replace the old superglue chmnbers. A SPEX Crimescope CS-16-500W-15F was purchased to replace the SPEX Mini Cr:imescope MC-400. A Nikon 0600 was purchased and a latent photography station was set -up to allow examiners to photographer their own latent ptints. The LPU is in the process of purchasing a humidity chmnber.

To meet FQS and ISO 17020 requirements, several pieces of equipment were purchased including one 10 gram weight, one 100 gram weight, one 6 inch NIST-certified ruler, and one 12 inch NIST-certified mler.

The LPU has two vacuum chambers which are not used. These chmnbers are maintained and tested every six months. Based on the lack of usage it would be beneficial to discuss whether or not this piece of equipment is worth keeping.

5. Results of internal and external audits

In order to meet FQS and ISO 17020 requirements, the LPU implemented an internal audit procedure, which is outlined on page 14 and 15 of the Quality Manual. An intemal audit was performed in October 20 13. This audit examined the following components of the quality system:

• Personnel's familiarity with the Quality Manual • Procedure for processing technique validation and control • Control of reagents and standards • Equipment calibration and maintenance records • Comprehensiveness of case repmts and notes • Procedures for evidence handling • Proficiency testing • Personnel training records • Procedures for handling deficiencies • Laboratory health and safety measures

Of the twelve above listed criteria, the LPU was found to be in compliance with four: Procedme for validating processing techniques and controls, Equipment calibration and maintenance records, Procedures for handling deficiencies, and Laboratoty health and safety measures. Of the eight criteria where the LPU was out of complimtce, one (Personnel's fmniliarity with the Quality Manual) was resolved innnediately while conective actions were initiated for the remaining seven non-compliances.


A final report was written and bas been kept on file by the Quality Manager.

6. Corrective Actions

Eight corrective actions were initiated between March 2013 and March 2014. Seven of these eight were initiated as a direct result of the 2013 intemal audit. As of03/27 /14, one corrective action remains open.*

L'A - 07/18/13 Dnring the evidence processing proficiency tests, it was discovered that superglue controls were not being performed consistently for a variety of reasons. There was some confusion among evidence processors on whether SG controls were necessaty since positive controls of mixed chemicals were being documented in the newly established Mixed Chemical Logbook at the time of mixtme. Other evidence processors did not think SG controls were needed since switching to the new automated fuming chambers. Still other processors were forgetful.

SOP 4.004 - Evidence Processing Methodology was revised to state, "Mixed chemicals are tested at the time of preparation; therefore they do not need to be tested with each use. All other chemicals must be tested with each use. Superglue/cyanoacrylate may be tested simultaneously with items of evidence." In addition, a bag of control strips was placed on the exterior of the fuming chambers in order to make them more readily visible and available.

CA - 11/18/13 #2 Security During the 2013 internal audit, it was discovered that several desks did not have the means to lock cases; therefore, cases were being left unlocked. The supply storage room was rearranged to house old cases as well as cases needing to be logged in and out and cases being assigned to examiners. The supply storage room is locked at the end of each business day.

CA - 11/12/13 #4 Control of reagents and standards Dming the 2013 internal audit, it was found that non-mixed chemicals (purchased and pre-mixed) were not labeled with hazard codes. Small hazard labels were purchased and placed on all chemical containers.

CA -11/18113 #6 Comprehensiveness of reports and notes During the 2013 internal audit, it was found that examination records were not being paginated on a regular basis. This issue was cmmnon and systemic. The Comparison Log and Analysis Worksheet were revised. "Page_ of _" was moved to the top of the page.

*L'A -11/15113 #7 Technical and Court Testimony Review Dming the 2013 internal audit, it was discovered that case reviews were not being performed for every examiner and the number of reviewed F ARs per examiner was not meeting the 10% requirement in certain cases. SOP 2.025 -Technical Review was revised to allow a designated LPE to perform case reviews in addition to the Supervisor and Senior LPE. Two LPEswere designated to this task. A deadline of2/1/2014 was set to satisfY tltis corrective action. This deadline passed and a new deadline of3/l/2014 was set. An audit of the case review progress was perfmmed on 3/4/14 which showed that the requirement was not met. This audit was documented and is attached to the Cmrective Action Fonn. This Conective Action remains open.

CA -11/15/13 #8 Procedures.for evidence handling Dming the 2013 internal audit, approximately 45 items from 16 cases were found to be stored long-term in the Evidence Storage Room. These items included SPD cases as well as cases from outer agencies. Some of these items dated back to 1991. All SPD cases were retmned to the Evidence Unit. A point person related to each case was contacted for evidence retrieval.


CA -11115113 #9 Proficiency Testing During the 2013 internal audit, it was discovered that there were no proficiency tests on file for Supervisor Dmma West. This includes the CTS comparison test, evidence processing test, and the AFIS operation test. As Supervisor, Donna is responsible for perfornring case reviews and resolving verification discrepancies; therefore, needed to demonstrate proficiency in these areas. Donna passed these three tests on 12/30/13 and 12/31/13.

7. Discrepancy Resolutions

There are currently two unresolved verification discrepancies under the Supervisor's control.

8. Reports and reviews from supervisory personnel

In some instances, issues discovered during case reviews are forwarded to the Supervisor for resolution and in other instances these issues are being resolved by the reviewer. It was decided that minor errors (i.e. grarmnatical enors found in reports, pagination, etc.) will be resolved by the reviewer. More serious enors (i.e. latent print quality differences, missed identifications, erroneous identifications, etc.) will be forwarded to the Supervisor for resolution.

Court testimony reviews were conducted by Senior LPE Betty Newlin on the following individuals: • Aleah Cole 3/26/13 • Rachel Forbes 6/4/13 and 1/2/14 • Ann Strom 6/4/13, Reviewed by Donna West l/10/14 • Kristi Riccobuono 3/13/14

A comt testimony review ofTatmny Chaney was conducted by LPE Aleah Cole on 12/12/13

9. Training needs and recommendations

According to the Quality Manual, impartiality training is expected to occur dming the first team meeting of each year. Impartiality training did not occm during the first team meeting of 2014 and is now scheduled for the next team meeting which has yet to be scheduled.

The MorphoTral< conference has been attended in the past by Betty Newlin. lt is important to maintain SPD representation at these conferences in order to create new contacts and leam about the new emerging biometric technologies. The 2014 MorphoTrak conference is scheduled for May in Costa Mesa, CA and we would like to send one representative.

A number ofldentifica!ion Technicians and Administrative Specialists are crossed-trained in evidence processing. This was extremely beneficial when the unit's backlog was at a much higher leveL There have been circmnstances when cases worked by these individuals contain an extremely large nmnher of digital images. These cases then have to be assigned to and worked by an examiner. Most of the time there are very few latent prints of comparison value. Valuable resources in both the Photo Lab and the LPU are being used to complete these cases. Two possible solutions include:

• Additional training in latent prints. These individuals are not trained in latent print analysis or comparison. When determining what prints to lift fiom an item of evidence they are essentially perfornring an analysis and should be trained in this step. A good introductory course is Introduction to the Science of Friction Ridge Examination by Ron Smith and Associates.

• Assign all cases with porous items to the Q file to be processed by LPEs. It was decided to assign all cases with porous items to the Q file rather than the Tech file. Cases in which a porous item is not listed on the FAR but is included in the evidence packaging can be processed by the Identification Technician or Administrative Specialist


Members of the LPU provide ample latent print training throughout the year to both law enforcement personnel and the community. Below is au example of training classes that the LPU regularly participates in:

• SPD Post-Blea • SPD E'~dence Specialists • Expanding Your Horizons • Cub Scout show and tell day • Community outreach at local elementary, middle, and high schools

10. Continued suitability of policies and procedures

SOP 2.035- Proficiency Tests should be revised to allow the comparison proficiency test to be administered by the Supervisor or designee. The Supervisor's comparison proficiency test was graded by the Ten-print Unit Supervisor. Revising this SOP will make it more in line with actual practice.

After review of the Controlled Documents Master List it was determined that all 63 SOPs have been revised during accreditation preparation with the exception of the following:

• 2.083- Officer Appreciation Letters (effective 10/2112009)- After review by Administrative Specialist Verbonus, it was detetmined that this needs to be updated.

• SOP 11.010- Qualifying Questions (effective 5/21/2009)- The qualifying questions listed in this SOP are still cuneni.

• SOP 11.050 - Communication with Court Representatives (effective 12/06/2009) -Needs to be updated.

The Quality Manual was created and made effective on 9/13/2013.

11. Recommendations for changes to the quality system

• On-going review of the Senior LPE position to detennine the appropriate level of duties. • Consider working with the ID Unit to bring in new hires with higher qualifications to benefit the evidence

processing program. Recently, two of the three ID Techs trained in evidence processing quit the pro!,rram. • An inventory of side projects was completed to determine the amonut of time LPU personnel are

dedicating to non-casework activities and whether this time is appropriate or needs to be adjusted.

Matt,

If you could communicate to the Vendor that we have to be right at $200,000 invoiced by beginning of August, so if they need to purchase items for Phase Z and bill us in phase 1, to get to the $200,000 invoice, I suggest we figure out how to make that happen.

Also in talking to Mike Mears he wants two signature blocks at the bottom of all scope of work documents .... one for them to sign and one for SPD (Karim Miller) to sign that we are in agreement of what the scope of work describes as being accurate.

I wanted to follow up with you on the facial recognition project that you and I and Gordon began talking about early last year. I see in the news that SPD is looking to move forward with this project. I know that you had used a very early fonn of the MorphoTrak solution however, it has grown leaps and bounds since that time and I'd really like the opportunity to present to you and your team what we have to offer to SPD today.

Our facial solution is divided into a couple different areas and can be served up as needed. We offer it as simple as a mug book! line~ up type of solution to a sophisticated product that can enhance photos that are not offered in the best condition for identification purposes and lastly our video captnre that runs continuously and can be set up against a watch list. I've attached a couple datasheets with some of this information however, what I would really like is to have a brief conversation with you about your current project plans and see if MT can set up a demo in the near future to show you what we have to offer.

“We went through great lengths to create an audit system,” Harrell. .. (March 13, 2014, by IArustic) Wise people are beginning to realize social media is not such a good idea after all. (March 14, 2014, by SalkMustGo)

Seattle police will soon be able to use facial-recognition technology to compare images of unidentified suspects with an extensive database of jail mug shots.

The Seattle City Council has approved the police department's use of facial-recognition software under a policy created with input from the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) ofWashin1,>ton.

Until the software goes into use later this year, police will continue to manually compare photos captured by surveillance cameras with jail-booking mug shots, a painstaking, time-consuming process.

Investigators also send out bulletins to other police agencies hoping that someone will be able to identity surveillance linages, said Seattle police Assistant Chief Carmen Best.

The new computer software will allow police to quickly scan some 350,000 jail mug shots to determine whether there is a match with a suspect's photo, police said.

"It's called booking-photo comparison software," said police spokesman Mark Jamieson. "The software measures the distance of points on the face using an algorithm of individual matching points on the eyes, the ears, the nose and the chin. Everybody's face is unique to them, kind oflike a fingerprint."

Best said the department has been "discussing having this kind of capability for four years or so." But first, the department sought to craft a policy that would negate concerns over potential abuses or privacy intrusions.

"It took a lot ensuring people were going to be comfortable, that this would not have some other use. There were concerns about privacy issues," she said.

Doug Honig, spokesman for ACLU of Washington, said the organization had concerns that facial-reco1,>nition software could be used "on fishing expeditions," to identity people in crowds, protests, over a live stream, or anyone not necessarily suspected of a crime.

Under the policy, the software is to be used only to find people suspected of criminal activity.

"We're not anti-technology. With any technology we want to make sure it's narrowly used for criminal activity," Honig said. "We're not opposed to the policy as it is written. We'll be watching closely to make sure there are no abuses."

Best said that only a handful of officers in the department's photo unit will be trained to use the software.

The software will be loaded onto one of several workstations throughout King, Snohomish and Pierce counties that will be cmmected to a main server in Pierce County. The main server will be home to photos of adults who have been booked into county jails in the three counties, said Jamieson.

The program will provide officers with one or several potential matches for them to use in their investigation, he said.

"It may help us put together a photo array. It doesn't replace detective work, it's just an added tool," Jamieson said. "We still have to have probable cause to arrest somebody."

Once the software linking the booking photos is up and running, the goal is having the photo-comparison program in use by fall, Jamieson said.

Seattle City Councilmember Bruce Harrell said the software is being paid for by a $1.6 million federal Homeland Security grant. Other law-enforcement agencies in King, Snohomish and Pierce counties will also he able to use it.

Harrell, who chairs the City Council's Public Safety, Civil Rights and Technology Committee, said that Seattle police will be extremely limited in their use of the software.

"We went through great lengths to create an audit system," Harrell said. "We know who uses it, when they use it and why they use it."

This isn't the first time Seattle police have encountered privacy concerns when weighing new technology. A year ago, the department it even took flight after citizens voiced concerns over the potential for abuse.

The department had purchased two drones with money from a regional Homeland Security grant, envisioning uses during hostage situations and search-and-rescue operations and after natural disasters. One of the helicopters was expected to be used by the King County Sheriffs Office.

I wanted to follow up with you on the facial recognition project that you and I and Gordon began talking about early last yeaL I see in the news that SPD is looking to move forward with this project. I know that you had used a very early form of the MorphoTrak solution however, it has grown leaps and bounds since that time and I'd really like the opportunity to present to you and your team what we have to offer to SPD today.

Our facial solution is divided into a couple different areas and can be served up as needed. We offer it as simple as a mug book/ line-up type of solution to a sophisticated product that can enhance photos that are not offered in the best condition for identification purposes and lastly our video capture that runs continuously and can be set up against a watch list. I've attached a couple datasheets with some of this information however, what I would really like is to have a brief conversation with you about your current project plans and see if MT can set up a demo in the near future to show you what we have to offer.

Please let me know when we can set up a time to speak in the next week or. l look forward to hearing back from you soon.
