Accurint® TraX™ Subject Matter Expert training helped us find evidence we didn’t realize we were missing.  Following the best practices learned during this training was the key to ensuring the device records were admitted during trial and our analysis survived challenges from the defense. 

~Detective Adam Wright, Gresham (OR) Police Department 
I recently attended a LexisNexis® Risk Solutions Accurint® Virtual Crime Center Training event. I was able to use the best practices reviewed during training to search for an individual wanted for sexual battery and solicitation of a minor since March 2021. Using Accurint Virtual Crime Center, I quickly located a new, current address for this wanted individual and he was arrested just hours after training concluded.  Accurint Virtual Crime Center helped provide valuable information to apprehend this wanted individual.
