The facility should be locked at all times when unattended. Access to these files should be limited to those employees who have a necessary legitimate need. An informant file should not leave the immediate area except for review by a management official or the handling agent, and should be returned prior to the close of business hours. Sign -out logs should be kept indicating the date, informant number, time in and out, and the signature of the person reviewing the file. 2. Documentation. Each file should include the following information: a. Informant Payment Record - kept on top of the file. This record provides a summary of informant payments. b. Informant Establishment Record - including complete identifying and location data, plus any other documents connected with the informant's establishment. c. Current photograph and fingerprint card (or FBI/State Criminal Identification Number). d. Agreement with cooperating individual. e. Receipt for P/I. f. Copies of all debriefing reports (except for the Headquarters case file). g. Copies of case initiation reports bearing on the utilization of the informant (except for the Headquarters case file). h. Copies of statements signed by the informant (unsigned copies will be placed in appropriate investigative files). i. Any administrative correspondence pertaining to the informant, including documentation of any representations made on his behalf or any other nonmonetary considerations furnished. j. Any deactivation report or declaration of any unsatisfactory informant. INFORMANT MANAGEMENT AND UTILIZATION All persons who will be utilized as informants should be established as such. The specific procedures required in establishing a person as an informant may vary from jurisdiction to jurisdiction but, at a minimum, should include the following: 1. Assignment of an informant code name to protect the informant's identity. Exhibit "B" Page 4 2. An informant code book controlled by the supervisor or his/her designee containing: a. Informant's code number. b. Type of information (i.e. informant, defendant/informant, restricted use/informant). c. Informant's true name. d. Name of establishing law enforcement officer. e. Date the establishment is approved. f. Date of deactivation. 3. Establish each informant file in accordance with Informant File Documentation (2). 4. For each informant in an active status, the agent should review the informant file on a quarterly basis to assure it contains all relevant and current information. Where a MATERIAL face that was earlier reported on the Establishment Record is no longer correct (e.g. a change in criminal status, means of locating him/her, etc.), a supplemental establishing report should be submitted with the correct entry. 5. All informants being established should be checked in all available criminal indices. If verified FBI number is available, request a copy of the criminal records from the FBI. Where a verified FBI number is not available, the informant should be fingerprinted with a copy sent to the FBI and appropriate State authorities for analysis. The informant may be utilized on a provisional basis while awaiting a response from the FBI. PAYMENTS TO INFORMANTS 1. Any person who is to receive payments charged against PE/PI funds should be established as an informant. This includes a person who may otherwise be categorized as sources of information or informants under the control of another agency. The amount of payment should be commensurate with the value of services and/or information provided and should be based on the following factors: a. The level of the targeted individual, organization or operation. b. The amount of the actual or potential seizure. c. The significance of the contribution made by the informant to the desired objectives. 2. There are various circumstances in which payments to informants may be made. a. Payments for Information and/or Active Participation. When an informant assists in developing an investigation, either through supplying information or actively participating in it, he/she may be paid for his/her service either in a lump sum or in staggered payments. Payments for information leading to a seizure, with no defendants, should be held to a minimum. Exhibit "B" Page 5 b. Payment for Informant Protection. When an informant needs protection, law enforcement agencies may absorb the expenses of relocation. These expenses may include travel for the informant and his/her immediate family, movement and/or storage of household goods, and living expense at the new location for a specific period of time (not to exceed 6 months). Payments should not exceed the amounts authorized by law enforcement employees for these activities. c. Payments to Informants of Another Agency. To use or pay another agency's informant, he/she should be established as an informant. These payments should not be a duplication of a payment from another agency; however, sharing a payment is acceptable. 3. Documentation of payments to informants is critical and should be accomplished on a Informant Payee Receipt. Payment should be made and witnessed by two law enforcement officers and authorized payment amounts should be established and reviewed by at least the first line supervisory level. In unusual circumstances, a non - officer employee or an officer of another law enforcement agency may serve as witness. In all instances, the original signed receipt must be submitted to the project director for review and record keeping. ACCOUNTING AND CONTROL PROCEDURES Special accounting and control procedures should govern the use and handling of confidential expenditures, as described below: 1. It is important that expenditures which conceptually should be charged to PE/PI/PS are so charged. It is only in this manner that these funds may be properly managed at all levels, and accurate forecasts of projected needs be made. 2. Each law enforcement entity should apportion its PE/PI/PS allowance throughout its jurisdiction and delegate authority to approve PE/PI/PS expenditures to those offices, as it deems appropriate. 3. Headquarters management should establish guidelines authorizing offices to spend up to a predetermined limit of their total allowance on any buy or investigation. 4. In exercising his/her authority to approve these expenditures, the supervisor should consider: a. The significance of the investigation. b. The need for this expenditure to further the investigation. c. Anticipated expenditures in other investigations. Exhibit "B" Page 6 Funds for PE/PI/PS expenditures should be advanced to the officer for a specific purpose. If they are not expended for that purpose, they should be returned to the cashier. They should not be used for another purpose without first returning them and repeating the authorization and advance process based on the new purpose. 5. Funds for PE/PI/PS expenditure should be advanced to the officer on suitable receipt form. Informant Payee Receipt or a voucher for P/E should be completed to document funds used in the purchase of evidence or funds paid or advanced to an informant. 6. For security purposes there should be a 48-hour limit on the amount of time funds advanced for PE/PI/PS expenditure may be held outstanding. If it becomes apparent at any point within the 48-hour period that the expenditure will not materialize, the funds should be returned to the cashier as soon as possible. An extension of the 48- hour limit may be granted by the level of management that approved the advance. Factors to consider in granting such an extension are: a. The amount of funds involved. b. The degree of security under which the funds are being held. c. How long an extension is required. d. The significance of the expenditure. Such extensions should be limited to 48 hours. Beyond this, the funds should be returned and readvanced, if necessary. Regardless of circumstances, within 48 hours of the advance, the cashier should be presented with either the unexpended funds, an executed Informant Payee Receipt or purchase of evidence or written notification by management that an extension has been granted. 7. P/S expenditures, when not endangering the safety of the officer or informant, need to be supported by canceled tickets, receipts, lease agreements, etc. If not available, the supervisor, or his immediate subordinate, must certify that the expenditures were necessary and justify why supporting documents were not obtained.
