The goal of the attorney general element of the U.S.–Mexico State Alliance Partnership is to strengthen and promote collaboration among state attorneys general from both countries. Binational exchanges and workshops organized through CWAG, along with NAAG, Mexico’s Federal Attorney General’s Office (PGR), Mexico’s National Conference of Attorneys General (CNPJ), and Mexico state attorneys general provide a unique opportunity to establish innovative mechanisms that enable dynamic synergies and cross-jurisdictional cooperation on many law enforcement issues. La meta del componente de procuradores de la Alianza Estatal México-EE.UU. es fortalecer y promover colaboración entre procuradores estatales de los dos países. Intercambios binacionales y talleres organizados por CWAG, junto con NAAG, la PGR, la CNPJ, y los procuradores estatales mexicanos proveen una oportunidad única para establecer mecanismos innovadores que permiten sinergias dinámicas y cooperación entre-jurisdiccional en muchas cuestiones del orden público.

20 Forensic Science is an integral part of a Justice System
Science can be the most objective “witness” in court. Modern forensic science techniques are useful in implicating a defendant as well as exonerating one. Powerful databases can help solve cases (e.g. CODIS, NIBIN, AFIS, etc.)

21 Benefits of a forensic science partnership
Improved investigations of crimes along Mexico/US borders. Gather crime data (e.g. firearms use in both countries through NIBIN) Solve cases in Mexico and the US through sharing of data bases (e.g. CODIS and AFIS) Identify the remains of citizens of Mexico and the US in each other’s countries

22 Sharing experiences and knowledge is an integral component of the partnership
New technology developed can be more readily transferred through a formal partnership. Forensic scientist training can be delivered more efficiently. US legal decisions can guide Mexico through difficult issues. Quality Assurance measures learned in the US can be evaluated and adopted in new and growing forensic laboratories in Mexico.

23 Components of the Partnership
Technology assessment in Mexico’s forensic laboratories Transfer of new technology Sharing of forensic data Training of forensic scientists Quality Assurance tenants stressed Equipment exchange Forensic Science literature and information sharing (translation into Spanish and Spanish to English)

24 CWAG Forensic Science Program Objectives
Provide useful training classes to forensic scientists in Mexico Prepare forensic scientists for the new judicial system Share experiences and lessons learned with forensic scientists in Mexico Offer Assistance in establishing or implementing new forensic science programs such as CODIS, NIBIN, and Missing Persons data bases.
