Most specifically we are looking for training that will allow us to more effectively examine cell phones for data related to crimes against children. Technology changes are so rapid and by offering training we can stay up with the perpetrators in their use of mobile devices to exploit children. Daren recently returned from a class and with the training received proceed to examine and obtain data that we had previously not been able to obtain. Training: There is no future cost impact for the training and there is no supplanting of funds with this request. The significance of the training will be in providing a skill set to meet a need within the lab. The lab recent has had several submissions in which we were not able to pull the data from the device because it was damaged. Had we had the tool and training we may have assisted the investigator in obtaining the needed data to help their case investigation. This is a continuation of grants in previous years and is currently being reviewed by Legal for any outstanding, issues. What options exist for the Board? (Include consequences, impacts, costs, etc. of options) • Authorize the Chair to sign the Statement of Grant Award for $5,407. • Deny authorization to sign. This will result in increased cost to the County General Fund to provide this training to staff, or a lack of necessary training for the Regional Crime Lab staff. • Schedule a work session to discuss further. Recommendation: Authorize chair to sign the Statement of Grant Award with Colorado Springs and accepting the grant award for training. Approve Recommendation Sean P. Conway Julie A.

ICAC Program Operational and Investigative Standards FOR ICAC PURPOSES ONLY Revised Update: October 16, 2014 Page 4 of 17 LIMITED OFFICIAL USE ONLY LAW ENFORCEMENT SENSITIVE 1. Purpose of the ICAC Standards These Standards are established by OJJDP to guide administration and operation of ICAC and its Members when working on ICAC-related Investigations and matters. ICAC Members should make every reasonable effort to comply with these Standards. However, since many aspects of Investigations are dynamic and laws vary widely between jurisdictions — their genesis; methods for their evidentiary pursuit; and their application within court — it is difficult to anticipate every circumstance that might present itself. Thus, reasonable deviations from these Standards may occur depending upon various factors (e.g., emergency situations; timing constraints; accessibility constraints; resource constraints; technology constraints; perceived conflicts between the Standards and statutes, decisional law, and court orders; et cetera). Should questions regarding the interpretation of these Standards arise or conflicts occur between these Standards and agency policies or law, the subject Commander faced with the issue shall seek the guidance of an OJJDP Program Manager. However, nothing in these Standards is meant to interfere with a Commander's or Supervisor's lawful tactical decision -making. Commanders may supplement, but not contradict, these Standards in the written agreements they establish with their Affiliates to promote the effective operation of their Task Forces.

ICAC National Program 2.1 Mission of the ICAC Program The Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force Program (ICAC) helps state and local law enforcement agencies develop an effective response to technology -facilitated child sexual exploitation and Internet crimes against children. This support encompasses forensic and investigative components, training and technical assistance, victim services, prevention and community education. 2.2 ICAC Background The Internet Crimes Against Children Program (ICAC) is a national network of 61 coordinated task forces representing more than 3,500 federal, state, and local law enforcement and prosecutorial agencies. These agencies are engaged in both proactive and reactive investigations, forensic examinations, and criminal prosecutions. By helping state and local agencies develop effective, sustainable responses to online child victimization — including responses to child sexual abuse images (Images), The ICAC Program has increased law enforcement's capacity to combat technology facilitated crimes against children at every level. The ICAC Program was developed in response to the increasing number of children and teenagers using the Internet and other technology, the proliferation of child sexual abuse images available electronically, and the heightened online activity by predators seeking unsupervised contact with potential underage victims. Because ICAC Members understand that arrests alone cannot resolve the problem of technology -facilitated child sexual exploitation, the ICAC Program is also dedicated to training law enforcement officers and prosecutors, as well as educating parents and youth about the potential dangers of online activity.

Oversight of the ICAC Program 3.1 The oversight of the ICAC Task Force Program and the administration of ICAC grants is the responsibility of OJJDP. The oversight of each Task Force falls to its Commander. The oversight of each agency, both Lead and Affiliate, falls to its designated Supervisor. 3.2 Commanders shall ensure there are supervisory systems and protocols in place that provide for observation, documentation, and review of ICAC activity. Said systems shall comply with the principles of quality case management and shall ensure that ICAC activities comply with agency policies and these Standards. 3.3 Commanders shall ensure that each Member in his/her Lead Agency and each Supervisor of an Affiliate Agency receives a copy of the Standards. 3.3.1 Supervisors shall ensure that each Member in his/her Affiliate Agency receives a copy of the Standards. 3.4 Commanders shall submit all proposed National Initiatives to OJJDP prior to the start of the project. 3.4.1 OJJDP may suggest amendments to the original proposal following consultation with the presenting Commander and, as appropriate, other federal, state, and local entities. 3.5 Supervisors shall inform their Members about departmental or Task Force employee assistance programs and services available to them.

Selection and Retention of Task Force Members 4.1 When practicable during the selection process of Members, Commanders and Supervisors shall evaluate prospective candidates for work histories that indicate prior investigative experience, courtroom testimony skills, technical knowledge and ability, an ability to prudently handle sensitive information, a genuine interest in the protection of children, and an understanding of the effects that Members may experience when exposed to Images. 4.2 Commanders and Supervisors shall acknowledge the potential effects of Investigations and exposure to Images. When practicable, they shall attempt to mitigate the potential effects of the work using, for example, the following techniques: • Work environment considerations — Commanders and Supervisors are encouraged to provide a physical location for the work environment that allows the Investigator to conduct discreet Investigations. • Work flexibility — Commanders and Supervisors are encouraged to allow flexibility for Investigators and others who are exposed to Images (e.g., frequent breaks, having an open-door policy, etc.). • Educating colleagues — Commanders and Supervisors are encouraged to teach their colleagues that the viewing of Images is serious and restricted. • Work with Mental Health Providers (MHP) — In compliance with their agency guidelines, Commanders and Supervisors are encouraged to work with MHP to make recommendations for care of Members and to provide education and training designed to minimize the impact of Images. • Training -- Commanders and Supervisors are encouraged to share or seek out best practices for minimization of the impact of Images and to promote attendance at trainings regarding methods used to minimize said impact.

All costs to develop and deliver the training shall be the responsibility of the Task Force or Affiliate providing the Task Force training. ICAC Program Operational and Investigative Standards FOR ICAC PURPOSES ONLY Revised Update: October 16, 2014 Page 9 of 17 LIMITED OFFICIAL USE ONLY LAW ENFORCEMENT SENSITIVE 6. Case Management 6.1 Commanders and Supervisors are responsible for determining Investigative priorities and selecting cases for Investigation in their respective agencies. Those determinations shall include an assessment of victim risk, jurisdiction, known offender behavioral characteristics, and the likelihood of securing the information necessary to pursue each Investigation. 6.2 Conventional boundaries often are meaningless in today's digital world where the usual constraints of time, place, and distance lose their relevance. These factors increase the possibility of Lead and/or Affiliate Agencies targeting other law enforcement personnel, Investigating the same target, or inadvertently disrupting an ongoing Investigation. To foster effective case coordination, collaboration, and communication, each Member shall make every effort to Deconflict all active Investigations. 6.3 Lead and Affiliate Agencies shall be subject to their respective agency's incident reporting procedures and case supervision systems. At a minimum, a unique identifier shall be assigned to each case.

(See EXHIBIT D) In addition to submitting the Request for Expenditure form, your agency may need to also complete and submit a request for vendor set up form (See EXHIBIT A). This will be addressed on an individual basis as needed. The sub recipient will be given the "contract/agreement/SOGA" regarding the grant funding. Before the CSPD will consider the expenditure request, these forms will need to be fully executed and on file in the ICAC office. Fully executed indicates all parties have signed and agreed to all the conditions within the terms of grant funding. In addition the sub recipient will be required to submit a signature card (See EXHIBIT B) for the ICAC office file, indicating at least two, preferably four, agency individuals authorized to make request for expenditures and reimbursements. Once the contract is on file, the Grant Expenditure Request Form should be fully completed, and a memo from the requesting agency must accompany the form stating in narrative form the need for the request and the impact their request will have on their ICAC program, as well as how the request support the overall mission of the Colorado ICAC Task Force. This form will need to be in our office and signatures of approval will be required from the ICAC Program Coordinator, the Task Force Commander and the Project Director. Once these signatures are on the form, the ICAC Program Coordinator will scan in the form and email it back to the sub recipient making the request. At this time they will be allowed to make their purchase, travel plans, etc. Affiliate agencies may submit an expenditure request form covering a three-month period. The expenditure request would then be valid for three (3) months from the date of CSPD approval, not beyond September 30, 2018 (under the 2017-2018 grant award). If all approved expenses have not been spent during that three-month period, the remaining balance is NOT carried over for that agency — the funds remain within the primary grant and those funds are again available to support other affiliates. All affiliate approved grant funding must be completed prior to September 30, 2018, .Fi ratilhaucum' • oit Colorado Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force Revised November 20, 2017 3Wa:MgEelliMISEZIE Page 11 Overtime: On the Expenditure Request form, please provide the detective's name, normal salary rate and overtime salary.
