Identity Theft
The Many Faces of Identity Theft: The Thieves, the Victims & the Detectives.

The 2008 CDAIA Conference will present an Identity Theft class which will focus on investigation and prosecution issues related to ID Theft.

• This course will define the investigation necessary to successfully prosecute Identity Theft Crimes.
• Topics covered will include: elements of the crime, charging decisions, defenses, litigation and sentencing options. 
• Victim restitution issues will be discussed.
• The highlight of the course will be one of the first showings of the 2008 video IDENTIFIED. IDENTIFIED, The Underworld of Fraud" looks into the eyes of real life identity theft thieves and the investigators who are tracking these invisible crooks on the streets and in cyberspace. IDENTIFIED was financed by the San Diego DA, produced by DDA Joan Stein, and written and directed by SDPD Detective Fred Helm.  It was made in cooperation with the United States Secret Service, the US Postal Inspection Service, the San Diego Regional Fraud Task, and Wells Fargo Bank.  It is compelling.
