Rolando (USAFLS) Hi David — I was just perusing the U.S. Attorney's Manual looking for an answer on another case and I noticed that Section 9-75.030 (regarding Coordination of Child Sex Abuse cases) says that cases involving violations of 18 USC 1591 (related to child sex trafficking) are supposed to be coordinated with CEOS and the Civil Rights Division. According to Section 8-3.120, prior to presentation to the grand jury. the U.S. Attorney is supposed to advise the Civil Rights Division in writing of the following: (I Identity of the targets of the investigation; ( The factual allegations to be investigated; ( The statutes which may have been violated; ( I The United States Attorney's assessment of the significance of the case and whether the case is one of "national interest," and (I The U.S. Attorney's proposed staffing of the matter (including whether 'Civil Rights Division attorney should be assigned to work directly on the matter).
