Great to see Minnesota taking a lead on implementing trauma-informed interviewing techniques with victims of sexual assault. The way victims are interviewed is a key part of their recovery process, as is a compassionate response in the immediate aftermath. Our state is taking important steps forward to provide better treatment to sexual assault victims in crisis and making certain it is treated like the heinous crime it is. I will continue to push for the #AbbyHonoldAct to ensure law enforcement has the ability to provide this training.

Law enforcement officers responding to sexual assaults in Minnesota would be expected to follow strict new protocols — including the best ways to gather evidence and interview victims — under a draft policy prepared for the state's police licensing board.
