Audience Benefits from Training: Law Enforcement The Saint Paul Police
Depazhnent has a Family & Sexual Violence Unit that Landles the cases to be explored in
this proposed training. There aze two sets of investigators for flus unit, imder the
supervision of Commander Kevin Casper. The unit works closely with the Saint Paul
Domestic Abuse Interventiott Project, but other police officeis and investigators have not
had the opporluuity to hone the skill set necessary to investigate these cases of abuse in
�-- later Iife or fully uaderstand all of the factors inf?uencing the vicrim's decisions around
�,
safety, testifying, choices in legal remedies, etc. This training opportunity will definitely
expand the Police DepartmenYs intemal capacity to identify domestic violence and/or
sexual abuse in later life. Officers not assigned to Family & Sexual Violence Unit might
be the first responder on an abuse case but it would quickly be tumed over the Unit.
Through the development of this application, we already have begun to broaden our
understanding of the issue of abuse in later life. Sexual assault and domestic violence by

support staff of the SPPD reflect the diversity of the community they serve. The SPPD
has established a Family Violence Unit to oversee the process by which domestic
violence cases aze investigated and brought to resolution. The SPPD is a recent recipient
of a federal grant developed by the Ciry of St. Paul's Cootdinated Comxnunity Response
Team and ISAIAI3 (a faith-based iniriative) to improve: 1) the law enforcement response
to violations of protection orders specificalIy and domesric abuse cails in genenl, 2)
victim safety, 3) City and County Attomey's charging rates, 4) azrest rates of Gone On
Arrivais, and S aggressive �on:tc:;ng af c�rcnic off :.�ers. A key component of that
grant is to conduct an accountability audit (the Audit evaluates how victim safety and
offender accountability either are or aze not incorponted into the functions of the
criminal justice system). This value-added focus on chronic offenders, OFP enforcement,

The Saint Paul Police Depariznent (SPPD) is committed to participatin� in this
pilot project to train law enforcement and judicial system personnel on
appropriate responses to abuse in later life. Saint Paul Police will open training
on "Fi'ouse in i,ater Life" per the vI? curricuium io Sairii Faui ^v�ce�s (35C),
Saint Pau19-1-1 workers (65}, 5aint Paul Police 5ergeants/Investigators (135) and
any other interested local police jurisdiction. The training will be offered through
the Saint Paul Police Training Unit and it wilI be taught by a multi-disciplinary
team trained through the OJP grant.
The Depar6nent will cover the costs to advertise the training opportunity for other
Saint Paul and Twin Cities law enforcement agencies. The SPPD will provide the
facility to conduct the training. We will hold/promote the training tbrough our
Sai�t Pau? Pelice Professiona! Developmenr r��±;�,t
� This training opporlunity will broaden the department's internal capacity to
identify domestic violence and/or sexual abuse in later life. Officers not assigned
to either the Domestic Abuse Unit or the Sex Crimes Unit would typically only be
marginally invoived in these cases. Within the general police population, abuse in
tater life is ass�u-ued to be r,�ostly financia.t ex�Ioitation. As we are learning
threugh en* c�La�aorz+aon wit� the Minnesot2 Ne?Werk on Abuse in Later Life
(NINALL) and other parhers for this project where t�ere is fi�va.ncial expi_oitation,
there is almost always physical, emotional, verbal and/or sexual abuse.
Sincerely,

From: John J. Choi, City Attomey
The Saint Paul City t3ttorney's Office welcomes the opporiunify to pa_rficipate in tbis pilot
project to train law enforcement and judicial system personnel on appropriate responses to abuse
in later life. Our office will send appro�mately 23 criminal division prosecutors and 4legal
assistants #o the training on Abuse in Laier Lu`e per ihe ^vJP cu.�iculnu-�. -'I'he trair,;n.g will be
open to alI City Attorney's Office personnel. There will be a total of eighteen (18) ho•s,-s of
training for each participant from the multi-disciplinary team.
Our office will encourage other judicial system personnel to aftend the trainiugs. The City
A#tomey's-(}f�ee-will pr-o�ide-meeting-spac�for�he--trai�ings-and-r-elatedrprajeattPam meetings
AriotheP part of our commifinent is to engage judges in this dialogue and encourage their
attendance at the local traiuings and the OJP's Judicial Institute.
Staff have expressed great interest in attending the fr•ainiugs and see it as an opporhmity to
siaengthen their working relationship with S±. Pau1 Police Lnvestigators and.law enforcement first
responders, and improve case invesfigation and outcomes. VJe understaud how critical this issue
is for our community. Last yeaz al_one foriy-eight percent (48%) of the women killed in
Minnesota by an intimate pariner or family member were over the age of 50 years. We want to
be a part of raising the awazeness azound the issue of abuse in later life. This training will help
us communicate that reatity and ultimately improve the judiciai system response to both victims
and perpetrat '
