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

This bill requires New Jersey's Attorney General to launch a 90-day pilot program in the state's 10 municipalities with the highest violent crime rates (based on recent Uniform Crime Reports). Each participating local police department would receive a ballistics scanning device to immediately analyze cartridge cases at crime scenes and access instant crime scene analysis reports for investigations. After the pilot, each agency must submit a usage report with recommendations to the Attorney General, who then must recommend to the Governor and Legislature whether to make the program permanent with annual funding. The law aims to evaluate if these devices improve firearm-related crime investigations in high-crime areas.
