EVIDENCE

---

Evidence Technician:

A.E. Soyars, C.P.E.S. - asoyars@caswellcountync.gov

Office Hours:  Monday-Friday 8am-5pm

The Caswell County Sheriff's Office Evidence Division is responsible for receiving and safe storage of all evidence and seized property. Each item received in a case is assigned a storage location and tracked until the final disposition by court order. The technician handles submitting evidence to the appropriate lab for further testing as well as processing and collection of evidence.

Return of Found/Seized Property  

Strict guidelines dictate when evidence may be turned over to its rightful owner. Depending on the disposition of each case, the evidentiary value of the property and type of evidence, items will either be returned to their rightful owner, retained, disposed of at public auction, or destroyed, as permitted by law. If any item was taken as evidence in the course of a lawful investigation it can be returned once the case has been adjudicated and a lawful order signed by a court official has been processed through the clerk of court's office. 

Evidence/Seized Property is released by appointment only by contacting the Evidence Technician.
