April 2005) Application for Funding Assistance 16J Florida Department of Law Enforcement Justice Assistance Grant - County -wide General Project Information Project Title: COLLIER COUNTY CHILD ABUSE /SEXUAL OFFENDER/SEXUAL PREDATOR Subgrant Recipient: Collier County Board of Commissioners Implementing Agency: Collier County Sheriffs Office Project Start Date: 10/1/2011 End Date: 9/30/2012 Problem Identification The problem this project is targeting is the safety of Collier County residents, with a primary focus on protecting children under the age of eighteen (18) from registered sexual predators /sexual offenders and from sexual offenses by known and unknown criminal offenders. With continued population growth, and the transient nature of sexual predators and sexual offenders, incidents of these crimes against children have been on the rise. Under Florida Statute, while all sexual predators constitute sexual offenders, not all sexual offenders constitute sexual predators. The Legislature finds that sexual predators and sex offenders who have committed their offenses against minors often pose a higher risk of engaging in sex offenses, even after being released from incarceration. Since an offender presents a high level of threat to public safety, coupled with the long -term effects suffered by victims of sex offenses, the State has justification to implement specific strategies to protect all citizens from sexual offenders. With FDLE maintaining the state database for registered sex offender /predators, and verifying addresses via mail- drops, the Collier County Sheriff ?s Office (CCSO) is tasked with conducting physical residential address checks of these offenders. The number of registered sex offenders fluctuates as individuals move into or out of the county. In April 2010 there were 200 registered sex offenders and 16 sexual predators registered in Collier County. On June 10, 2010 there were 195 registered sex offenders and 17 sexual predators registered in the county. On July 11, 2011, the numbers had increased to 210 registered sex offenders and 17 sexual predators registered in Collier County for a total of 227 offenders /predators. CCSO routinely encounters out -of -area sex offender individuals who have either failed to register, or have not been specifically designated by the court as a sex offender. Current strategies for tracking and monitoring sex offenders and predators are based on information documented from prior arrests. One of the problems that will be addressed with this grant funding is locating offenders who are living in remote areas, or who constantly move from one area of the county to another. As with many offenses there are offenders who have yet to be arrested or identified has residing in Collier County. Statistics have shown that many sex offenders commit 100 -150 sex related offenses before being apprehended. The CCSO desires to maintain a progressive and proactive response, pursuing yet to be identified offenders and reducing recidivism of registered sex offenders. The CCSO ?s specialized detective bureau responsible for investigating reported crimes against children, missing children, sexual battery (on adults and children) and implementing this Child Abuse /Sexual Offender /Sexual Predator grant, is the Special Victims Unit and the Exploitation Unit. In this time of continued economic turmoil and reduced funding, these grant funds are needed to maintain the current Byrne /JAG Child Abuse /Sexual Offender /Sexual Predator Detective position and one Forensic Crime Analyst position that are currently funded through September 30, 2011. Application Ref # 2012 -JAGC -1691 Contract - JAGC -COLL- - - Rule Reference 11D -9.006 OCJG -005 (rev. April 2005) Section #2 Page 1 of 5 4 Application for Funding Assistance 16J Florida Department of Law Enforcement Justice Assistance Grant - County -wide r The Special Victims Unit (SVU) and Exploitation Unit ?s (EU) responsibility covers child crime investigations and offender tracking county -wide. Collier County is the largest county in Florida at 2,025 square miles. The 2010 Census reflects a year -round population of 321,520. The County estimates the peak season population at 389,149. In addition, Collier County welcomes over 1 million visitors /tourists annually. As the year round and seasonal population has increased, CCSO has also seen an increase in child abuse, sexual offender, and sexual predator related cases. According to 2009 American Community Survey, children under 5 years account for 6.5 % of population with children and youth under 18 increasing to 22.6 percent of the total county population. The overall goal of the Special Victims Unit and Exploitation Unit is to develop uniform and consistent responses to crimes against children and sex crimes; as well as to proactively seek methods for preventing victimization. With a focus on community safety and service, the SVU /EU Units have enhanced their efforts of conducting periodic checks, monitoring and surveillance of sexual offenders /predators before they attack again in an effort to prevent further offenses against children. This increased due diligence in enforcing Florida ?s laws will likely increase the number of arrests, and, therefore, the number of individuals involved in sex offender tracking. These perpetrators will be registering as sexual predators and sex offenders, resulting in an increase in the volume of offenders and predators to be monitored. The Special Victims Unit and Exploitation Unit ?s number of cases assigned per month is consistently increasing in comparison to other investigative bureaus. Overall SVU and EU have seen the following case loads and increases: 2004 cases: 1,035 2005 cases: 1,347 2006 cases: 1,702 2007 cases: 1,824 2008 cases: 2,639 2009 cases: 2,452 2010 cases: 2,757 Cases per month: 86 /month Cases per month: 112 /month Cases per month: 142 /month Cases per month: 152 /month Cases per month: 220 /month Cases per month: 204 /month Cases per month: 230 /month Crimes where children are the primary victims constitute a greater proportion of investigative cases and involve many forms of abuse and neglect. In addition, children that run away from home, are abandoned, considered ungovernable or unwanted can easily fall prey to sex offenders and predators. These complicated and often protracted case investigations require the agency to have skilled staff dedicated to this critical issue. Byrne /JAG countywide funds are needed to maintain one Detective and one Computer Forensic Analyst to provide coverage on cases dedicated to the investigation, apprehension, and prosecution of sex offenders and predators, along with other child crimes. To continue supporting this initiative and increase the positive outcomes of this program, grant funds of $138,940 are requested to cover a portion of the payroll and benefits cost associated with these two positions dedicated to protecting children throughout this large and diverse community. Application Ref # 2012 -JAGC -1691 Section #2 Page 2 of 5 Contract - JAGC -COLL- - - Rule Reference 11 D -9.006 OCJG -005 (rev. April 2005) Application �6 pp cation for Funding Assistance Florida Department of Law Enforcement Justice Assistance Grant - County -wide Project Summary (Scope of Work) The Collier County Sheriff? Office (CCSO) proposes to increase its efforts with the enhancement and expansion of the Child Abuse /Sexual Offender /Sexual Predator project to protect the lives of children under the age of 18 and improve interactions and multi - disciplinary approaches with other aspects of the criminal justice system. The CCSO proposes to continue the Child Abuse /Sexual Offender /Sexual Project with $138,940 to cover a portion of the costs to maintain one Detective and one Computer Forensic Analyst position. CCSO will provide the balance of the personnel costs from its operating budget. The Detective assigned to the grant will implement, maintain and coordinate the enforcement of child abuse and neglect laws, including laws against child sexual abuse, and promoting programs designed to prevent child abuse and neglect. The Computer Forensic Analyst will provide the technical knowledge and expertise to find and identify documents, photos and other evidence obtained from computers, phones and other electronic devices used by the perpetrators. The objective of this project is to safeguard the entire Collier County community, with primary focus on protecting children from sexual predators and offenders while reducing overall crimes against children. Each case requires a different amount of time and resources. Grant funds will be utilized and expended toward the development of strategies and improved methods of targeting sexual offender and sexual predator committing crimes against children. The CCSO grant funded Detective and Computer Forensic Analyst and other members of the SVU and EU will coordinate with the State Prosecutor in criminal prosecutions of these cases. With Collier County?s rapid growth has come an increase in offenders and predators. The current sexual offender /sexual predator Detective conducts nearly 300 address verifications and attempted contacts each quarter. During the first quarter of 2010, there were: 187 physical contacts and address verifications with offenders; 38 attempted contacts with offenders; 53 physical contacts and address verifications with predators; and 6 attempted contacts with predators. In May 2011, the detective had 66 sexual offender /sexual predator physical address checks and attempted an additional 25 contacts. The grant funded detective will investigate address verifications as required by law, as well as surveillance of offenders likely to commit specific acts that might constitute a violation of their community control /probation. Continued funding will also allow the detective to survey areas where undocumented sex offenders prey upon children. The Detective will also serve as liaison with the Department of Corrections (DOC) and other law enforcement agencies (local, state and federal) to identify the movements of transient offenders, who might not be registered in Collier County, as they move between jurisdictions. The Detective will also prepare material for the training of CCSO Deputies on the laws and requirements pertaining to sex offenders /predators. This training can result in expanding the potential for apprehension and prosecution of offenders committing crimes against children in Collier County. Another component of the grant project will be continued public awareness. The CCSO website www.colliersheriff.org has a Stay Safe link to information regarding sexual predators /offenders and news regarding sexual predators on the move. The www.colliersheriff.org website provides a link to FDLE ?s Sexual Offenders and Predators search site, current photos of known offenders and predators in Collier County, and safety tips for parents and children. Under this grant project, CCSO will continue to Application Ref # Contract 2012 -JAGC -1691 - JAGC -COLL- - - Rule Reference 11 D -9.006 OCJG -005 (rev. April 2005) Section #2 Page 3 of 5 4 Application for Funding Assistance 16J 4 Florida Department of Law Enforcement Justice Assistance Grant - County -wide enhance public awareness through public safety events, public service announcements, radio talk shows, newspaper articles, presentations and visits with Neighborhood Watch groups, and public presentations at schools and churches, as resources allow. Efforts will continue to focus on ideas to help children and families stay safe such as Internet child safety guides, programs that equip adults with skills needed to keep their children safe, a publication with a list of questions to ask prospective child care givers, child safety public service announcements, and monthly child safety tips. These public safety events will also provide opportunities for fingerprinting of children and distribution of DNA kits. Given the ongoing fiscal constraints, lack of overtime resources, and a reduction in grant funds, CCSO will strive to conduct a minimum of three (3) joint operations (DOC Compliance Initiatives) with the Florida Department of Corrections (DOC) Probation Department in which offenders are verified for address compliance and adherence to probation and community control obligations. CCSO is dedicated to doubling the state ?s mandated address verifications to ensure adequate protection of our children. CCSO will continue to check offenders and predators more often than required by Florida law. Through continued grant support and other resources, sex offenders will be checked quarterly rather than annually, and sexual predators will be checked monthly rather than quarterly.
