Domestic Violence Report Review Checklist

Publication Date: Jan 2017

The crimes of violence against women, such as sexual assault, domestic violence, and stalking, can pose challenges to the responding officers. Frequently, details are missed and necessary elements to document these crimes are excluded from reports. This tool is designed to help supervisors ensure that domestic violence reports capture important and comprehensive details and the sum of crimes that took place.
