Course Description
Predators interested in exploiting children are utilizing computers, the Internet and the World Wide Web in alarming numbers. Prosecutors and law enforcement now face the challenge of conducting online investigations, presenting technical evidence to juries, and overcoming an increasing number of evolving defenses. Safety Net is the ideal intermediate course for prosecutors, investigators, and computer forensic examiners seeking to enhance their abilities in the field of computer-facilitated child sexual exploitation. The course is an intensive five-day training where students learn about investigation, forensics and courtroom presentation of these cases. Lectures are combined with hands-on computer training and practical exercises.
Training topics include:
- Investigating online crimes
- Understanding computer forensic examinations
- Search warrants and working with Internet ServiceProviders (ISPs)
- Presenting technical evidence in court
- Anticipating defenses
- Emerging legal issues
- Child pornography
- Adolescent victims
- Hands-on basics of proactive online investigations
Safety Net is offered by APRI’s National Center for Prosecution of Child Abuse (NCPCA) in collaboration with the Microsoft Corporation. The course will be held at Microsoft Headquarters in Redmond, WA.
Who Should Attend?
- Due to the intensive hands-on nature of the course, the number of teams accepted is limited. Safety Net is extremely limited in size. NCPCA supports a multidisciplinary approach to computer-facilitated child sexual exploitation cases. Therefore, preference will be given to those who apply to attend as a multidisciplinary team (MDT). The ideal team consists of a prosecutor, a computer forensic examiner, and an investigator.
- Applications must be received by May 5, 2008 to be considered and those chosen to participate will be notified by May 16, 2008. There is no fee for the course. Lodging is included in acceptance to this course.
