During these difficult times of social distancing and self-quarantine, there has been a dramatic increase in online activities by children, and a heightened concern for their safety by parents/guardians, educators, and child protection professionals. Kids and teens are unable to go to school, participate in sports or other activities, or hang out with their friends, and instead spend many hours in the online world. This webinar provides ICAC members and other child protection professionals with tools and resources to help parents/guardians and others create a safer environment for all children.

Develop the ability to assess the behavioral elements of a child's disappearance in relation to abductor profiles. Analyze the typical traits, motivations, and behaviors of non-familial child abductors. By applying general knowledge of these behavioral patterns along with circumstances of the abduction, better direct your investigations towards the likely suspect profile. This method is designed to construct a profile of an unknown offender and, in cases with suspects, to focus the investigation on the most likely offender.
Discuss the various dynamics of asphyxiation abuse in children and identify commonly missed opportunities for evidence-gathering. Attendees will be taught the basics of anatomy, discuss the various forms of asphyxiation and highlight the signs and symptoms that may be present after this type of attack. All members of the multidisciplinary team including law enforcement, CPS, forensic interviewers, medical providers and prosecutors will learn the tools to assess and interview children who have been asphyxiated. With proper training and protocol, practitioners have started to better identify this often missed and sometimes lethal crime, finally giving this crime and the victims a voice.

The third course in the Missing Child Investigations in Indian Country (MCI-IC) online training series is designed to help law enforcement officers perform nonfamily and stereotypical abduction assessments in a missing child investigation in Indian Country. The course will present the behavioral tools to assess whether the reported abduction is a nonfamily abduction, stereotypical abduction or possibly, a false allegation of child abduction. The behavioral aspects used in this assessment process will primarily focus on the victim’s age and location of disappearance as these relate to the offender’s behavior and motivation. Understanding the common characteristics, motivations, and behaviors of offenders who abduct children can play a significant role in the successful investigation of missing or abducted children.
Technology has transformed how we investigate crime scenes, and mobile devices are central to this evolution. This webinar will explore how cell phone data—collected through cell site dumps, area dumps, and real-time device “pinging”—can identify suspects, locate witnesses, and support or refute alibis. We'll explain how signals like Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and other device emissions—digital DNA—can be documented and analyzed to identify unknown individuals at the scene. Whether in a crowded public area or a remote location, these invisible digital breadcrumbs can provide key leads in investigations.
