Publisher's Synopsis
In January 2000, following a report by the National Academy of Public Administration (NAPA), the Deputy Secretary of Defense directed the Under Secretary of Defense for Personnel and Readiness (USD(P&R)), in cooperation with the Inspector General, Department of Defense, to review supporting roles and investigative functions in military child sexual abuse cases. The goal was to ensure an integrated approach to resourcing sexual misconduct investigations, particularly those involving child victims.1 This evaluation responds to the Deputy Secretary's request as it concerns the military criminal investigative organizations (MCIOs).
