Elimination of Sexual Assault Kit Backlog in NC – Scheduled for October 15th – WILL BE RESCHEDULED
Our state had the largest backlog of sexual assault kits in the nation for many years. Learn how NCDOJ (North Carolina Department of Justice) and its Crime Lab, local law enforcement, and NCGA (North Carolina General Assembly) addressed this travesty through policy, collaboration and persistence, impacting public safety across our state.
Holly Jones, Senior Policy Advisor for the North Carolina Department of Justice, has been part of the Attorney General’s team to address the backlog of untested sexual assault kits. She will share her work in eliminating this backlog.
Plan to join us to hear more about this significant milestone for citizens of North Carolina.
