“That's what I love about high school girls … I get older, they stay the same age....” This case study details the discovery, investigation and prosecution of a sexual predator who for 25 years lived Matthew McConaughey’s iconic creepy line from the 1993 movie 'Dazed and Confused.' From the first disclosure by a 13-year-old, through many difficult forensic interviews of possible victims, to the complex investigation, prosecution and jury trial of this multiple-victim offender, the lessons learned reach all members of an active MDT, including forensic interviewers, detectives, investigators, and prosecutors.
Learning Objectives:
Encourage persistence in law enforcement investigations, allowing all victims to find their voice
Develop strategies for prosecuting offenders of multiple victims
Demonstrate the importance of forensic interviews allowing child victims to finally unburden themselves
