Silent Witness
WHAT IS SILENT WITNESS?
- A program to obtain information regarding criminal activity.
- A program which ensures the information gathered goes to the proper law enforcement agency and nowhere else.
- A program which allows for ANONYMOUS REPORTING.
WHY DO WE NEED SILENT WITNESS?
- To encourage each member of the college community to become involved in fighting crime on and around our campus.
- To provide a system ensuring timely reporting of criminal activity.
- To protect those who get involved and make reports by maintaining their anonymity through use of a "blind" e-mail account into which reports are fed.
HOW DOES SILENT WITNESS WORK?
- Through any computer with internet access, a person can browse to the Dalton State College Public Safety site and then select Silent Witness Report.
- The reporting form is a fill-in-the-blank exercise in which the person reporting can record all known data about the criminal activity.
- Complete the form and click SUBMIT, the information goes automatically to a "blind" e-mail site which will not reveal the identity of the sending person.
