2-2 Discussion Intelligence Report

To effectively do their jobs, criminal justice professionals rely on good information. Because the information they receive comes from multiple sources and is often fragmented, it is especially important that they be able to analyze existing information, evaluate the credibility of sources, and identify new informational needs in preventing and responding to threats. In addition, those gathering intelligence information need to be able to choose appropriate surveillance tools for combating illegal activities that can be used to legally prosecute offenders. 
In Module Two, you will submit your intelligence report. Accurately summarize the intelligence collected to date based on the three supplied intelligence reports. Information should be drawn from the referring agency’s intelligence report and be presented in chronological order from inception to most recent activity. Explain why you are requesting the surveillance and reconnaissance for a particular target, referencing information from the referring agency’s intelligence report. Assess what additional intelligence is needed. Remember that your summary and analysis need to be valid, accurate, and clear for your intended audience in order to ensure legal compliance and admissibility and secure approval. 
The summary must answer the following questions: 
How and why was the target identified? 
What are the proposed surveillance activities?
What is the timeframe set for the surveillance activities? 
Address the level and the potential for possible threat.

Specifically, the following critical elements must be addressed: 
 
I. Background and Justification: 
 A. Accurately summarize the intelligence collected to date. Information should be drawn from the referring agency’s intelligence report and be presented in chronological order from inception to most recent activity. Be sure to include who or what initiated the cycle, what agency referred the intelligence, the reason the intelligence was requested in the first place, and what information has been collected. The goal is to set the context for your request, balancing brevity with clarity. 
B. Explain why you are requesting the surveillance and reconnaissance for a particular target, based on information from the intelligence report. Your answer should accurately identify the target (group or individual) and address intent, opportunity, and capability. Remember, you can use your analysis of the referring agency’s intelligence report completed earlier in the course to help support your argument. 
C. Assess what additional intelligence is needed. What information is missing from the referring agency’s intelligence report that criminal justice agencies need to effectively evaluate and neutralize the threat? Be sure to justify your response. Remember, you can use your analysis of the intelligence report from the referring agency completed earlier in the course to help support your argument.  

 D. Justify why it is important to invest time and resources on surveillance and reconnaissance now. How significant and urgent is the potential threat? What might occur next? Remember, you can use your analysis of the intelligence report from the referring agency completed earlier in the course to help support your argument.  
Guidelines for Submission: Your submission should be 2–3 pages in length, 12 point Times New Roman font, double-spaced, and follow APA formatting. It must also contain at least three sources, cited in APA format.
