52070.19.2 Debriefing Objective And Purpose

  • The objective of a debriefing is to learn enough about the subject and the subject’s current gang to:

    • Allow staff to reasonably conclude the subject has dropped out of that gang.

    • Allow staff to separate the subject from identified active gang affiliates, protecting the subject from their retaliation.

    • Allow staff to reclassify the subject regarding possible new custody, housing, and assignment needs.

    • A debriefing is not for the purpose of acquiring incriminating evidence against the subject.
