Jan. 30 – Jan. 31, 2014

Today’s Good News
Sometimes it’s the seemingly smaller, more detailed tasks that can really go a long way toward helping detectives build a case against a criminal. That was the situation earlier this month when new Recruit Chelsea Mitchell was assigned to the Department’s Computer Crimes Unit to assist the Internet Crimes Against Children Taskforce for a week. Under minimal supervisor, she assisted Detective Kevin Hiner by reviewing more than 10,000 emails and thousands of pages of documents in which she identified more victims and uncovered even more evidence for detectives.

Through Recruit Mitchell’s solid work ethic and attention to detail, she was able to save detectives more than 40 hours of work related to reviewing this evidence, and she helped make the investigation against the offender even stronger. Good work Recruit Mitchell!
