Hosted by the National White Collar Crime Center (NW3C), this webinar is designed to equip attendees with the tools and strategies needed to excel in online investigations using Google, Bing, and others. During this webinar, attendees will learn how to master advanced queries, including how to create precise Google and Bing “dorks” (advanced search queries) to uncover specific online mentions.

Published by the Comprehensive Opioid, Stimulant, and Substance Use Program (COSSUP), this publication provides details about training content surrounding overdose response for officers, how agencies obtain their naloxone, and respondents’ beliefs on whether administering naloxone and other programs aimed at reducing opioid use in the community is a responsibility of law enforcement agencies. This data was formulated based on the 2020 Law Enforcement Overdose Response Survey fielded by RTI International to a nationally representative sample of law enforcement agencies, including municipal police departments, county sheriffs’ offices, and state police. Agencies participating in the survey differed in rurality and size, thereby providing a comprehensive view of how diverse law enforcement agencies across the country have equipped their officers to respond to illicit drug use in their communities.
