Identification
(1)
The department will identify inmates and groups of inmates that present an elevated security threat risk based on their criminal history, institutional conduct history, interstate transfer status, escape history, present behavior, STM intelligence data base, human intelligence, and other available resources. Inmates identified by the department as presenting an elevated security threat may be managed by the Security Threat Management (STM) Unit.(2)
An inmate may be identified as a “high alert” management inmate based on the criteria listed in Attachment A.(3)
The STM Unit will maintain a record of all inmates identified by intelligence sources as affiliates of a security threat group who are actively supporting, promoting or engaging in behavior which caused an elevated risk to the safety, security and orderly operations of DOC facilities. These records will be kept in a secured area designated by the STM Assistant Chief.(4)
Any department employee who becomes aware of any inmate who may be engaged in or affiliated with security threat behavior or activity shall communicate such information to the appropriate STM lieutenant. Each correctional facility will have an assigned STM lieutenant, who may or may not be housed on-site, but will be responsible for management of STM related activity at their specific institutions.(5)
Upon receipt of security threat information, the STM lieutenant will determine whether the information is valid. If the information is deemed valid, the STM lieutenant will forward the information to the institution intelligence officer and the STM intelligence analyst.(6)
The STM intelligence analyst will use various means to analyze and document the intelligence information. The intelligence analyst will then disseminate any applicable information to the appropriate STM lieutenant, institution intelligence officer, functional unit manager or other internal and external stakeholders.
