EXHIBIT B <br />Supervision <br />1. Existing departmental supervisory systems and procedures shall apply, with specific <br />emphasis on observation, documentation, and periodic evaluation of cases assigned to <br />undercover investigators. Written directives will reflect the principles of quality case <br />management and ensure that ICAC Task Force activities comply with both agency and <br />ICAC Task Force Standards. <br />2. At a minimum, management or supervisory policies and practices shall include: <br />a) review of daily ICAC Task Force investigative reports; <br />b) periodic review of undercover session recordings; <br />c) direct participation in formulating ICAC Task Force investigative plans and <br />establishing investigative priorities; <br />d) development of work schedules including approval of specific overtime expenditures; <br />e) assessment of equipment and training needs; and, <br />f) review and approval of any ICAC Task Force fiscal matters. <br />Selection of ICAO Task Force Personnel <br />While existing agency personnel procedures apply, managers and supervisors should evaluate <br />prospective ICAC Task Force candidates for work history that indicates prior investigative <br />experience, court testimony skill, ability to handle sensitive information prudently, and a genuine <br />interest in the protection of children. <br />Task Force members should be computer literate, knowledgeable regarding child exploitation <br />issues, and be familiar with Federal and State statutory and case law pertaining to ICAO <br />investigations. <br />Prevention and Education Activities <br />Prevention education activities are a critical component of the Minnesota ICAC Task Force <br />Program. Supervisors and investigators are expected to develop and lead prevention programs to <br />foster awareness and provide practical, relevant guidance to children, parents, educators, <br />librarians, and other individuals concerned about child safety issues. However, these <br />presentations shall not depict identifiable victims nor shall they use pornographic or sexually <br />explicit images. Presenters shall not discuss investigative techniques. <br />Media Relations and Releases <br />Copies of media releases related to this initiative will be forwarded through the ICAC Unit <br />Commander to the Public Information Office for dissemination. Copies of radio or video <br />segments and press clippings will be used to promote and sustain public support for ICAC <br />activities and circulated within the Review Board. <br />6~Page <br />
