The New Mexico Department of Justice (NMDOJ) today announced significant early success from its Crime Gun Intelligence Center (CGIC), just four months after its launch. As the first Attorney General’s office in the nation to house a statewide CGIC, New Mexico is already producing actionable intelligence that is helping law enforcement agencies solve and prevent violent crime across the state. Since its launch, the CGIC has rapidly scaled into a fully operational statewide network, with National Integrated Ballistic Information Network (NIBIN) technology active in Gallup, Roswell, Farmington, and Las Cruces. These sites are processing ballistic evidence and delivering real-time intelligence to investigators across multiple jurisdictions.

“New Mexico didn’t wait to act, we built a first-in-the-nation model that is already delivering results. By centralizing this work within our office and partnering with agencies across the state, we are giving investigators the tools they need to connect the dots, solve cases faster, and prevent future violence.” – AG Torrez
