Crime Gun Intelligence Centers (CGIC)

Crime Gun Intelligence Centers (CGIC) are specialized teams within law enforcement agencies that analyze firearm-related evidence to combat gun violence. They collect and share data from ballistics tests, crime scenes, and firearm trace reports to identify patterns, sources, and traffickers involved in illegal gun use. By integrating information across jurisdictions and agencies, CGICs help track and disrupt illegal gun networks, leading to more efficient investigations and crime prevention. Their goal is to reduce gun-related crimes by providing targeted, data-driven insights to law enforcement efforts.
