4 A civilian identification officer will never be left alone with a suspect who is in police custody at a VIPER suite. 2.3 Procedure Individual roles. No unauthorised CD s or DVD s will be used in the VIPER equipment. Blank CD s will only be obtained from an authorised source. The trained officer carrying out the VIPER procedure will be responsible for ensuring that all CD s are securely stored and that the suite is locked after use. 2.4 Related protocols, practices or service agreements with other agencies There is a Service Level Agreement with the National VIPER Team at Wakefield, West Yorkshire. This is held on the Police National Legal Database. The DVD s and CD s are evidence and their storage, retention and destruction will be adhered to under Criminal Procedure and Investigation Act (CPIA) legislation, Management of Police Information (MOPI) and Homicide and Major Crime Investigations File and Exhibits Retention and Destruction 2.5 Administration Only forms that have been approved by Cheshire Constabulary will be used. These forms can be found on Weekly Orders and are available from the VIPER Unit. 2.6 Booking a Viper Suite Identification Parade Stage 1 - This section should be read in conjunction with PACE code D. PACE Code of Practice D - identification by witnesses (2)PACE Code of Practice D - identification by witnesses (1) An Inspector is required to authorise the VIPER process, this is a PACE requirement and is required in all cases regardless of who requested the VIPER. This Inspector will be the Identification Officer, and maintains responsibility for the process although the actual process may be delegated to another officer/member of staff. The OIC must ensure that the Notice to suspect and Details of First Description (200061h) are signed by either the suspect or representative, as appropriate and copies provided. Section B must be completed. A booking pack along with a checklist should be obtained from either the ID suite (sent by ), the custody suite, or they can be found on weekly orders. Contact the appropriate VIPER suite in each Custody Facility to arrange Version 2.2 Not Protectively Marked 4
5 for the suspect s image to be captured. This can be done whilst the suspect is in custody, or an appointment can be booked, and the suspect can attend at a later date. The OIC must make sure the completed Booking Pack and completed Notice To Suspect and Checklist are left in the VIPER room where the VIPER capture is to be completed (without the paperwork it is impossible to proceed) Stage 2 V1 Video image of suspect taken Stage 3 The suspect has their image captured on camera. This image will then be used by a member of staff from the ID Unit to make a PACE compliant compilation using 8 other images from the database. If the VIPER is urgent and it means that it is proposed to show the VIPER to witnesses whilst the suspect remains in custody, then a VIPER trained detention officer can complete the compilation. Detention Officers should only complete the compilation if the VIPER is urgent and there are no ID suite staff available. V2 Preview of the DVD compilation. The suspect and / or legal representative can preview the compilation if they wish to and it would not unnecessarily delay the investigation Stage 4 V3 Viewing by Witness(es) The OIC and the VIPER Suite liaise for a convenient date for the parade. The VIPER suite operator contacts the witness(es), to arrange a suitable time and date. The VIPER suite operator will arrange for escorting officer/s if the witness has transport requirements The OIC and any officer involved in the investigation of the case will not take any part in the video identification procedure and will stay away from the identification suite until after the full process has been completed. The VIPER suite will contact the legal representative and inform them via fax of the proposed V3 date and time Stage 5 Version 2.2 Not Protectively Marked 5

The current storage times are 3 months for a negative parade and 12 months for a positive parade. After this time they will be sent to the Force Tape library. A movement record must be kept of any movement or breakage/replacement of seals for each DVD The VIPER suite will return all the paperwork to the OIC Target time The time a VIPER takes to complete is based almost solely on the availability of witnesses and/or suspects. Should there be any time constraints or issues the OIC MUST contact the ID Suite at the earliest opportunity to bring this to their attention and begin arrangements for the VIPER to be prioritised Duties of escorting officer An escorting officer will not have been involved in any way with the case concerning the suspect. The ID Suite officer will direct the escorting officer where to sit or stand throughout the procedure. 3 Responsibilities 3.1 Who is responsible for actions/ decisions etc Policy individual roles and responsibilities.
