Lorton's Bode Technology Wins National Institute of Justice Grant

Lorton's Bode Technology Group, Inc. has been awarded a grant from the National Institute of Justice. The grant will fund identification projects for missing persons, and the results will be entered into the FBI's National DNA Index System and the National Missing and Unidentified Persons System. 

"Bode is grateful that the National Institute of Justice has continued to support this important program, which has assisted in bringing closure to hundreds of missing persons cases, and has continued to provide an invaluable resource to a national issue that cannot be addressed with current state and municipal resources," said Mike Cariola, CEO and President of Bode.  

This is the third NIJ grant awarded to Bode. The previous grants resulted in the identification of more than 700 people and the closure of multiple missing person cases. 

There are more than 8,700 people in the National Missing and Unidentified Persons System database.

Bode provides immigration and paternity testing worldwide and has identified victims of natural disasters, war, crime and terrorism, including the 2001 attack on the World Trade Center.
