Training Delivery - Webinar

This webinar will discuss various approaches to prosecuting intellectual property crimes while emphasizing the importance of communication between the prosecutor and the investigator.

This webinar will discuss how first responders, particularly law enforcement, are in a unique position to help identify and divert children to community-based treatment and other services, thus diverting children away from the negative consequences of exposure to drug use. Such steps, also known as law enforcement-led deflection (or law enforcement-led diversion), can have significant effects in identifying and addressing the needs of children exposed to and endangered by the presence of illegal drugs (or their manufacture, distribution, etc.) in their lives and homes.

This webinar will address how law enforcement leaders can successfully advance change within their agencies. Whether introducing new policies, procedures, or programs, it is important to build an organizational culture where change is readily accepted. The presenters will discuss how challenges driven by organizational culture were overcome when the new Pre-Arrest Deflection Program was introduced at the Tucson, Arizona, Police Department (TPD) and will provide steps for working within agency cultures to build support for front-end diversion.

In Emerging Issues in Forensic Genealogy, Investigative Genetic Genealogy (IGG) Consultant, Barbara Rae-Venter will discuss the Golden State Killer (GSK) case and the methodology used to identify DeAngelo as a suspect. Also included, with permission, will be some slides from Stephen Kramer of the Los Angeles field office of the FBI whom Barbara worked with on the GSK case. This case illustrates not only the power of IGG but the enormous cost savings and minimal intrusiveness, amongst other benefits, of IGG vs traditional law enforcement (LE) research.

Using these real-world, darknet-based examples that have been selected for a law-enforcement based audience, Andrew will walk-through examples of different methodologies law enforcement can use to de-anonymize threat actors, the different tools and approaches one can take to conducting these types of investigations, best practices, lessons learned, and more.

A primer on the dark web, and information available on the internet from free sources that can help investigators as they work to solve almost all types of cases.
