With the Foundation’s assistance, Kitsap County District Court has been able to purchase video conferencing equipment for their Human Trafficking Court and other hearings. Having defendants appear via video conferencing allows defendant’s enrolled in treatment programs to participate without interfering with that treatment, and allows at-risk defendants in the Human Trafficking Court to participate without fear of safety issues.
The Court intends to expand the use of video conferencing for other hearings, and thanks the Foundation for Washington State Courts for their support.
