Three Interdisciplinary Exchanges Take the Alliance Partnership Across Two Countries
During the first quarter of the year, San Diego, California; Portland, Oregon; and Providence, Rhode Island received groups of prosecutors, investigators and forensic scientists from the Mexican states of Baja California, Chiapas, Guanajuato, Hidalgo, Jalisco, Morelos, Queretaro and San Luis Potosi.
With the support of the California, Oregon and Rhode Island Attorneys
Generals, the groups learned about working together as a team to bring a case to trial, in addition to touring local judicial and law enforcement facilities.
