Officer's Evidence Handbook

Washington State Patrol

   See also the instructional videos on "Evidence Collection"

The Officer's Evidence Handbook is designed to be a "how to" guide for the trooper in the proper handling, packaging, and submission of property/evidence. It is simply written and easy to understand. Although this handbook was primarily written for the on-road trooper, the guidance provided is for all employees who have a need to submit evidence/property to the Property and Evidence Custodian. An attempt has been made to take the "mystery" out of evidence collecting, and therefore give confidence to each individual in the collection of all types of evidence.
