Eighty law enforcement professionals attended the ninth NLC PROTECTS seminar in Charleston, South Carolina on September 12th and 13th.  The attendees included prosecutors and law enforcement officers from across the Palmetto State and from as far away as Virginia and Florida.

The attendees began the seminar with an impressive call to action by Reginald I. Lloyd, U.S. Attorney for the District of South Carolina.  Seminar speakers included an impressive group of investigators and prosecutors, including representatives from the U.S. Attorneys Office for District of South Carolina, the U.S. Postal Inspection Service, and the South Carolina Attorney General's Office.  They were joined by national experts on topics such as on-line enticement cases, computer forensics, and child pornography prosecution.  

The feedback from our attendees was impressive. They included comments such as:

• "Everything was excellent – This was the most knowledge I received in years!"

   

• "Hearing about this, I can take this back to my organization and make us stronger."

   

• "Organization, planning, great speakers with strong knowledge and resource reference material."

   

Over 98% of survey respondents indicated that the NLC PROTECTS seminar met or exceeded their expectations.

The next NLC PROTECTS is scheduled for the New England in October 2007.
