Scott Sanford, Dir of Investigations & Training,
Barnes & Noble to speak at
March 28 StopORC Webinar
“Identifying, Addressing and Prosecuting ORC Cases”
Rancho Cucamonga, CA – March 14, 2013 – StopORC.org
has announced their upcoming free webinar will feature Scott
Sanford, Director of Investigations and Training at Barnes &
Noble, Inc., who will present “Identifying, Addressing and
Prosecuting ORC Cases Effectively” on March 28 at 12 pm PDT.
A major source of information, education and collaboration
in combatting
organized retail crime (ORC),
StopORC.org is sponsored by
Universal Surveillance Systems LLC (USS) and holds free
monthly webinars featuring subject matter experts who cover
current topics such as ORC trends, methods, prevention,
investigations, legislation and working with law
enforcement. Qualified professionals involved in combatting
ORC can register for the March 28 webinar at
stoporc.org/stoporc_webinar_march/.
“Too often ORC thieves are not prosecuted because the
investigation was insufficient,” said Sanford. “A key step
in all ORC prosecutions is proper case preparation by the
retailer so that prosecutors have the evidence and
information they need to successfully try and convict the
alleged thieves. At Barnes & Noble, our prosecution rate is
85 percent, and the StopORC webinar will show how others can
also achieve a high prosecution rate.”
Rod Holm, USS ambassador to StopORC, said “Scott is an
authority on building ORC cases for prosecution and a member
of our StopORC Advisory Council. We are extremely fortunate
that he will be sharing his expertise with us at our webinar
on March 28 as he has at various conferences and seminars
around the country. All retailers can benefit from his vast
experience and knowledge.”
StopORC webinars are open only to those engaged in
combatting ORC including loss prevention professionals, law
enforcement officials, legislators, prosecutors, judges and
security experts.
