Commissioners accept $6,335 donation to fund digital-forensic license for sheriff's office partner
Summary
An MOU with a nonprofit called Our Rescue was approved along with acceptance of a $6,335 donation to cover a license for digital-forensic software used to access locked electronic devices in criminal investigations.
The sheriff's office presented a memorandum of understanding with Our Rescue, a nonprofit that works to protect children from trafficking and exploitation, and said the group will donate $6,335 to pay for a license for digital-forensic software described in the meeting as able to access locked phones. Commissioners approved the MOU and donation by unanimous vote.
The sheriff's presentation included activity statistics for the department (citations, inspections, transports and a jail population figure near 241) before moving to the nonprofit MOU. County staff described the software as a tool to help break into phones and other devices when legally necessary; the donation will pay license fees for the sheriff's office use.
