 The City County Bureau of Identification was established by the North Carolina Legislature in 1937. This specialized fingerprint identification bureau was founded as an independent agency to ensure that a high level of technical identification services could be provided to support all law enforcement agencies in Wake County. Within these guidelines, the CCBI Director is under the technical supervision of the District Attorney.
