A. The DD will direct that an administrative investigation be conducted and will determine who shall conduct the investigation. The selected administrative investigator must have special training in sexual abuse investigations involving juvenile victims and follow a uniform evidence protocol. The administrative investigator shall conduct the investigation confidentially, promptly, thoroughly, and objectively. The administrative investigator will gather and preserve direct and circumstantial evidence and electronic monitoring data. If at any time during the investigation, the quality of the evidence appears to support criminal prosecution, the Director of Juvenile Court Services or DD will consult with the prosecutors as to whether interviews may be an obstacle for later criminal prosecution.

B. Upon completion of the investigation, the investigator will compile a final report of the facts, findings and recommendations, to include a summary of the allegations, statements from the youth, personnel, and all witnesses, physical and testimonial evidence, and whether personnel actions or failures to act facilitated the abuse and submit the report to the DD. This process needs to be completed within 5 days.

C. Substantiated allegations of conduct that appears to be criminal will be referred to law enforcement for investigation. Criminal investigations will include physical and DNA evidence.
