Chapter 5
Use of Force and Deadly Force Practices
Finding 28
The AIM system lacks sufficient data storage capacity causing use of force investigative reports, evidence reports, and supporting documentation to be located in multiple places.
MPD should update its Administrative Investigations Management system to allow for more space to keep all documentation in one location or consider one physical file location for documents, photographs, audio, video, ond other document evidence.
Implementation of these recommendations would be dependent on budgetary authority. At this time internal investigation/complaint files are not contained within the Administration Investigation Management (AIM) system as this system does not have the capability to contain all of the investigative files. However, there are paper files maintained at IAD. MPD has multiple stand-alone systems and this is currently being addressed with the purchase and implementation of the new TriTech RMS system. The Office of Police Information System Services will need to follow up with On Target Performance Systems to see if the AIM software can be integrated with the new TriTech RMS System, which will require funding and technical assistance.
