Requires AG to establish ballistics analysis device pilot program in certain municipalities.

This bill requires New Jersey's Attorney General to create a 90-day pilot program in the 10 municipalities with the highest violent crime rates (based on Uniform Crime Report data). Each participating police department would receive a ballistics scanning device to immediately analyze cartridge cases at crime scenes and access investigative reports. After the pilot, agencies must submit usage reports to the Attorney General, who will then recommend to the Governor and Legislature whether to make the program permanent with annual funding. The bill directly affects local law enforcement agencies in high-crime areas by providing new investigative tools and establishing a process for evaluating their long-term use.
