Good evening and thoings. Its the latest chapter for a young woman who wants to be called by her real name, jasmine. Reporter the attorney is asking the pd why they send her all the way aacross the country for rehab. Jasmine was flanked by her attorneys and father after leaving jail. Her mother, Oakland Police dispatcher was not there. She pled no contest to misdemeanor battery, and altercation with a rehab worker and her attorneys are looking to sue Police Officers in four counties, accusing them of trafficking her for sex. Take a look around. You dont know who is being sex trafficked. Human trafficking is a billion dollar industry in this country and around the world. And victims are women and children. Seven officers are facing different criminal charges, engaging in prostitution, oral copulation with a minor, jasmine told me she was involved with 30 officers, four, while she was under age. Shes entitled to compensation where officers violated her civil rights. Pamela price took aim
A publicsector responsibility to work this, but the private sector as a has a Critical Role to play. The foiled october 2010 bomb plot makes the case. We saw the air cargo industry working to significantly step of scrutiny of air cargo. The Maritime Transportation system is a highly concentrated system with a few large Terminal Operators and carriers responsible for handling the vast majority of cargo. The zombies could potentially take on a leadership role for deploying technologies and tools on a global scale by providing near realtime visibility and accountability for content and location of all cargo. Whatwhat they would need is a means to cover the cost. The estimated cost ranges from three to 5 billion. Given that there are millions of containers moving, we are talking about ten to 15 per box a less than the security surcharge i had flying from boston to washington for this hearing today. The risk of an adversary exploiting remains clear and present. The disruption of such an att
Xray imaging of the containers, whether it is high, medium, or low energy, it still takes human intervention to analyze the results of that scam. So you have a radiation portal monitor that is a very ineffective and passive system and will tell you if there is a source emanating from the container of concern. You then need to take it the 2nd step to have the Xray Technology see what is inside. Most countries in the world use a risk approach like we do and only inspect those highest of concern through xray systems. Okay. What percentage are inspected after they get here . A little bit over 1 . And when it hits the us port. Its about 2. 7 percent on top of the 1 percent. The next 2. 6 or 7 percent is the next level down . Yes, sir. Examined that whatever seaport they come into. A lot of that depends on shipping patterns and where they are arriving from and where they are coming into. They should be focused on the ports that have more of a greater likelihood of finding that type of device
Who is going to pay for the detectors, the kind he was talking about. How much money do you need to put these . Well, thats a difficult question to answer. I would suggest that the Government Fund these Research Projects like these drive through por holes that we could see that could detect nur rons at the same time. Were invested at my particular board working with dndo and a company to develop a state of the art detection system in the port of boston. There is definitely money needed to fund the programs. They are a federally mandated system. Dr. Flint is willing to put 10 to 15 on the container. We are looking to spend 3. 5 billion for a Missile Defense system for the east coast to deal with your rainian iran nuclear weapons, which presumably arent going to be available for some decades. Thank you mr. Chairman. I yield. Thank you. As you said, they scan less than 1 of u. S. Bound cargo. Do you believe that scanning at the point of oregon is 10 effective . Or should we be investing m
