Border Security Law Enforcement Whistleblower Initiative Launched

Los Angeles, CA, March 28, 2007 --(PR.com)-- Friends of the Border Patrol (FOBP), a non-profit law enforcement advocacy corporation, is pleased to announce the launch of its nationwide government Whistleblower initiative designated Significant Incident Report or SIR Initiative. The FOBP SIR Initiative will confidentially collect previously unreported data (or data not publicly disclosed) involving border security incidents or events. This information will be collected using a specialized and anonymous Internet based reporting system available via the FOBP website at www.FOBP.us. Utilizing this unprecedented confidential reporting system, FOBP will enable federal law enforcement officers engaged in all aspects of border security operations to confidentially report incidents or events to a collection point outside the sphere of agency influence.

The FOBP SIR Initiative will prove of particular interest to media representatives as all raw data collected is immediately accessible to the public; analogous to a “news tips database” upon which news reporters may develop leads. Aggregate data reports will be prepared on a monthly basis and publicly disseminated through the FOBP website. Media representatives may request specialized data interpretation and analysis by trained experts by contacting FOBP media relations directly. Recurring reports will be provided to congressional representatives, ensuring they receive accurate data, unlike current agency reported data, concerning these matters.
