The number of teens and predators using MySpace.com continues to rise across this nation at a steady rate as parents and communities become aware of the vulnerability of our children through social networking sites. In addition some users of MySpace have depicted evidence of criminal offenses they have committed through dialog and/or pictures/videos. Learn how MySpace can facilitate a successful prosecution of your online targets. This 4-hour program has been developed to facilitate law enforcement executives in understanding the use of MySpace and other social networking sites in building complete cases that can ultimately be presented to local prosecutors for charging. Law enforcement executives attending this training will gain first hand experience in navigating computer sites through the use of the Suburban Law Enforcement Academy’s Mobile Computer Lab.
