Recorded on July 8, 2021
Presented by the International Association of Chiefs of Police (IACP), AEquitas, and the National White Collar Crime Center (NW3C).
Justice can be measured and achieved in a variety of ways. In human trafficking cases, there are a number of avenues to justice—and it is paramount to consider both a victim’s perception of justice and law enforcements’ objective to maximize offender accountability. Determining the most effective route to justice requires knowledge of each avenue and the unique statutes, policies, and procedures that shape them.During this webinar, the presenter will introduce participants to the resource, “Maximizing Justice: Building a Prosecution Review Process.” This resource supports prosecutors and allied professionals in identifying the most effective route to prosecute traffickers. The discussion will highlight how task forces can use this process to conduct investigations more effectively, make charging decisions, support victims, and ultimately proceed to trial.
