Law enforcement in Oklahoma are calling it a complete game changer technology that can process DNA evidence from crime scenes in just 90 minutes.

The Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation has expanded its Rapid DNA Program to include a new facility in Tahlequah, giving law enforcement agencies across northeast Oklahoma access to revolutionary crime-fighting technology.

"We are definitely leading the wave of this technology utilized in this way for law enforcement," said Rapid DNA Program Supervisor Beth Deen.

It's things like blood or saliva that work best to make a DNA match, said Deen. She demonstrated how the system works.

"You insert a sample cartridge with a presumptive or investigative lead sample in it and it is capable of developing a DNA sample in just 90 minutes," Deen said.
