Identify Targets • Identify high-risk targets including: – Known trafficking routes – Intelligence information – Similarities to previous seizures – Unusual cargo or traveler for the port Identify
Examine • Begin by reviewing documents • Conduct an examination Examine
Document Results • Document results. • Develop a standard method of documenting examinations. Document
Exercise Instructions: 1. Review the data in the next slide. 2. Identify the smuggling patterns or trends. 3. Describe your high-risk targets.
