Image uploading <br />shall be initiated by the target. <br />Evidence Procedures <br />All undercover online activity shall be recorded and documented. Any deviations from. this <br />policy due to unusual circumstances shall be documented in the relevant case file and reviewed <br />by the ICAO Task Force Commander. <br />The storage, security, and destruction of investigative information shall be consistent with agency <br />policy. At a minimum, information should be maintained. in locked cabinets and under the <br />control of ICAC Task Force personnel. Access to these files should be restricted to authorized <br />personnel with a legitimate need to know. <br />Task Force supervisors should ensure that forensic examinations of computers and related <br />evidence are conducted by qualified personnel that have received specific training in computer <br />forensics. <br />Information Sharing <br />Conventional boundaries are virtually meaningless in the electronic world of the Internet and the <br />usual constraints of time, place, and distances lose their relevance. These factors increase the <br />possibility of ICAC Task Forces targeting one another, investigating the same subject, or <br />inadvertently disrupting an ongoing investigation. To foster coordination, collaboration, and <br />communication, OJJDP requires that each ICAC Task Force contribute basic case information to <br />a common database. Federal Guidelines have been established through the Department of <br />Justice's ICAC Task Force Information Sharing Working Group. The OJJDP .Task Force <br />Review Board reviewed, modified, and adopted the below information sharing system and <br />procedures. The St. Paul Task Force will comply with these guidelines. <br />1. Task Force investigators shall contribute basic information and case updates on all cases <br />(local, interstate, re-active and pro-active) to a Case Deconfliction System. Currently, <br />there are three- deconfliction systems being used by ICAC Task Forces around the <br />country. They are CPS (Child Protection System), ICAC Cops (formerly Roundup), and <br />Gridcop (Wyoming ICAC system). Task force members conducting pro-active or re- <br />active investigations must adopt one of the deconfliction systems mentioned above: <br />4~Page <br />
