Sheriff Troy Dunn asked the board to adopt a resolution entering into a joint powers agreement between the Minnesota Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force and the Rice County Attorney and Sheriff's Office.

The Internet Crimes Against Children Program is a national network of 61 coordinated task forces representing more than 3,500 federal, state and local law enforcement and prosecutorial agencies. These agencies are engaged in both proactive and reactive investigations, forensic examinations and criminal prosecutions.

Dunn pointed out the resolution was a renewal of a three-year agreement.
