In late 2006, plans were underway to build a Canyon County Forensic Complex. Construction began in 2007, and was completed in January 2008. The new building houses the Canyon County Coroner's Office/Morgue on one end, the Sheriff's Office Crime Lab on the other, and three garage bays the center. All evidence collected at crime scenes and autopsies are kept in this one, secure location.
The Morgue consists of a large, main autopsy room with one working station currently, as well as the plumbing and wiring for another. There are six individual coolers for body storage, and a second decomp room, with state of the art ventilation. This room has one cooler for body storage, and was designed with special walls to convert into a walk-in cooler if the need arises.
