Discussion List for campus-based and allied personnel working to end gender-based violence on campus.

[Megan Elizabeth Selheim <>]

We’re trying to work with our local law enforcement to increase reporting, but they’re not very comfortable with the idea of a non-investigative report. So I’m wondering if you all could answer a few questions for me:

 

1.       Does law enforcement in your jurisdiction take non-investigative reports (basically, will they take all the information but not investigate without victim permission)?

2.       If so, does your state have a statute specifically protecting law enforcement from liability when they take a non-investigative report?

3.       Are you comfortable with me sharing your response to questions 1 and 2 with our county prosecutor’s office?

 

Thanks!
