Subject: Victims with Disabilities: The Forensic Interview

I am a Supervisory Special Agent (Lt.) with the SC Law Enforecement Division (SLED), Special Victim's Unit, Vulnerable Adult Investigations Section and have found the CD and booklet information extremely valuable to both the law enforement community and the employees working with people with disabilities. Communications is the key. My hat is off to the Office for Victims of Crimes.
