THE INFORMANT

Why is it important for law enforce-

ment and courts to collaborate on

courthouse security practices?

Collaboration is critical for maintaining a

safe courthouse environment. The

importance of the collaboration is

highlighted in Supreme Court Rule

Chapter 68, and emphasized by the

mandate that each county create a

Security and Facilities Committee. The

purpose is to ensure the court system is

proactive, geared toward prevention, not

merely reactive, responding to violent,

perhaps tragic, incidents. Regular Securi-

ty and Facilities Committee meetings

allow individuals to share security

challenges, assess policies and proce-

dures, and identify solutions to security

deficiencies.

How would you recommend court-

house security be improved?

I recommend having a security plan that

is vigorously acted upon by the local

Security and Facilities Committee. The

Court Safety and Security Conference

workshop sessions and case studies

provide tools and information to support

effective Security and Facilities Commit-

tees.

Why is training essential to court-

house security?

Training is essential because one of the

biggest challenges in courthouse securi-

ty is complacency. Regular training keeps

the issue “alive” and provides law enforce-

ment and courthouse personnel with an

opportunity to collaborate, review

security plans, discuss concerns, and

develop solutions to potential security

problems. In addition, training offers a

venue to learn from others and practice

critical incident situations in a safe

environment. The impact of the training

will likely result in the prevention of an

incident or a quick and effective

response to an incident.

How is the Court Safety and Security

Conference planned each year?

The conference is planned by an advisory

committee representing county, state,

and federal service providers including

law enforcement and courts. The goal of

the advisory committee is to plan an

annual conference that provides practi-

cal concepts and ideas and addresses

current court security concerns.

Who should attend this conference?

The annual training is intended for

judges, court personnel, law enforce-

ment, prosecutors, defense attorneys,

county board members, and emergency

management personnel. Counties are

encouraged to send a team to the

conference, including those represented

on local Court Security and Facilities

Committees.

How is the training delivered at this

conference unique?

The training provided at the annual

Court Safety and Security Conference is

unique because topics are based on

current trends and issues in the field. This

includes “debriefings” on recent security

incidents, case studies that examine

successful court security practices, and

practical recommendations from

security practitioners. The 2014 confer-

ence will include case studies on recent

courthouse incidents and planning for a

high profile trial, family court security

considerations, onsite and offsite security

for personnel, emergency planning–con-

ducting a table top exercise, and more.

draft agenda and learn more about this

year’s exciting conference.

THE INFORMANT

The Crimes Against Children in Indian

Country Conference, approaching its

9th year, will be held April 8-10, 2014

in Baraboo, Wisconsin. This conference

was created to provide practical meth-

ods and strategies to prevent crimes

against Native youth and to promote

safer communities through information

sharing, data exchange and collaborative

partnerships.

How did this conference come about?

Nine years ago I was working on a series

of child abduction cases for my tribe,

Ho-Chunk Nation; and I was struck by the

lack of specialized training related to

child abductions and exploited children

in Indian country. I was working closely

with Jim Warren (White Earth Nation),

then the Administrator of the Division of

Criminal Investigation for the Wisconsin

Department of Justice, and he agreed

there was a need to explore this further.

We met with all of the Tribal police chiefs

in the state of Wisconsin to ask them

what their needs were and what types of

specialized training they wanted. We also

made recommendations based on the

kinds of cases we were seeing. There was

an overwhelming amount of support for

this training!

At that point, we met with my counter-

part at the Minnesota Bureau of Criminal

Apprehension, Janelle Rasmussen, who

was the Missing Persons Clearinghouse

Manager and Director of Training, and

Sgt. Billy Blake (1964-2009, Red Lake

Nation) of the Minneapolis Police Depart-

ment who had such passion for helping

youth as well as the Minnesota Tribes.

Together, we developed our ideas and

we gained support from the Minnesota

Tribal Chiefs, key people at the U.S. Attor-

ney’s Offices in both states, AMBER Alert

and Fox Valley Technical College. In order

to get the first and subsequent confer-

ences off the ground, we had the invalu-

able support for conference content,

instruction and training materials from

our friends at the National Center for

Missing & Exploited Children (NCMEC).

There are so many partners involved,

how do you make this work across

states and with so many people?

We had the perfect start with all of the

right people in the right positions. With

these partners, we made it work. Every-

one was so passionate and very commit-

ted to providing this type of training to

law enforcement and to Indian Country.

As time goes on, we continue to gain

new partners and further support from

equally committed people.

There is a greater need for multi-disci-

plinary responses to these issues, as well

as a coordinated network of informa-

tion-sharing across the Tribal nations and

across the states. With our partners,

especially the Minnesota Bureau of

Criminal Apprehension, the conference

has grown to what it is today. Every other

year, the conference is held in

Minnesota, alternating with

Wisconsin. The list of partner

agencies is impressive! To see a

complete listing, visit the

conference website.

What will the 2014 conference offer

participants?

We create an agenda that is based on the

previous conference evaluations. Recom-

mendations for this year include:

technology and how it impacts law

enforcement; SORNA; gangs in Indian

Country; and youth alcohol, drug trends,

and concealment. Visit the conference

website to view a draft agenda.

Who should attend the conference?

This conference has historically drawn

law enforcement, including school

resource officers. In recent years, there

has been an increase in social services

and treatment providers. Increased

knowledge and education has raised the

awareness that criminal justice systems

encompass a wide range of service

providers from judges and prosecutors to

victim advocates to law enforcement.

People have learned that they can’t

operate in silos any longer if they want to

put an end to what used to be a revolv-

ing door of delinquency, arrest, and

adjudication of youth, or the cycle of

perpetrator, arrest and incarceration only

for the cycle to begin again. Anyone who

touches the life of a child would benefit

from attending this conference and

training.
