New US Computer Forensic Institute.
Quincy writes "The DHS and Secret Service are setting up a new computer forensic institute in Alabama.
Set to open in mid-2008, the new National Computer Forensic Institute
will be able to train over 900 law enforcement officers per year. 'It
will initially be staffed by 18 Secret Service agents and will feature
classrooms, a forensic laboratory, an evidence vault, and server rooms.
Courses will be offered in the investigation of electronic crimes,
network intrusion investigation, and computer forensics... [T]he Secret
Service says that it will help to bring judges and prosecutors up to
speed as well.'" Maybe over time we'll see fewer botches of justice like those in the news recently [Slashdot: Your Rights Online]
