Security Task Force

When developing a security plan, it is critical that representatives from all law enforcement agencies that will have a role in the trial are included on the security task force to avoid confusion over the delineation of responsibilities. The following agencies should be included in the task force:

• Local police and sheriff's departments.
• U.S. Marshals Service.
• Federal Bureau of Investigation.
• Security personnel at the Safe Haven facility.

The security task force should address the following issues:

• Security measures at the Safe Haven and CCTV sites.
• Safe Haven access credentials.
• Perception of safety and security by victims.
• Coordination with city emergency management teams.
