Lanning CAC Consultants 4121 Plank Road #115 Fredericksburg, VA 22407 Credentials to Testify as an Expert Concerning Sexual Victimization of Children 1. My name is Kenneth V. Lanning. I am over the age of twenty-one (21) years and the facts stated are within my personal knowledge and are all true and correct. 2. I am currently a private consultant in the area of crimes against children. 3. My formal education is as follows: • B.B.A. (Accounting) Manhattan College, Bronx, New York (1962-1966). • Completed class work for Masters Degree (Criminal Justice) from Sam Houston State University, Huntsville, Texas (1975-1978). • M.S. (Administration of Justice) California Lutheran College, Thousand Oaks, California (1980). • No academic institution teaches what I come to know about the behavioral dynamics of the sexual victimization of children. 4. Before retiring in 2000, I was a Special Agent with the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) for more than 30 years. From 1970-1980, I was assigned to the St. Louis, San Antonio, and Los Angeles Field Offices where I worked a wide variety of investigative matters. During this time frame, however, few sexual victimization of children cases involved violations of Federal law under the jurisdiction of the FBI. Therefore, little of my work during this time involved investigating such cases. 5. In 1973, I received specialized training from the FBI and was designated a field "sex crimes" police instructor. From 1973-1980, as a collateral responsibility I conducted training for local, state, and federal law enforcement in the area of sex crimes. To expand my knowledge in this area, I enrolled in graduate school, read books and articles, and interacted with law enforcement investigators who conducted such investigations. 6. I received my first formal, specialized FBI training in the area of sexual exploitation of children in 1979. The term sexual exploitation of children is generally used to refer to those cases in which a non-family member victimizes the child. 7. In 1981, after obtaining my Masters Degree, I was assigned to the FBI Behavioral Science Unit and the National Center for the Analysis of Violent Crime (FBI BSU/NCAVC) at the FBI Academy in Quantico, Virginia. The objective of this Unit was the practical application of knowledge of the behavioral sciences to the investigative process. I was assigned there for the next 20 years (1981-2000) and focused primarily on the sexual victimization of children. My EFTA00188174 duties included analyzing and understanding how sex offenders commit their crimes and how their child victims respond. 8. I have attended and participated in every major training program I am aware of concerning sexual victimization of children inside and outside the FBI. 9. While in the FBI BSUNCAVC, my work involved conducting training, research, and case consultation concerning the behavioral and criminal aspects of deviant sexual behavior. Each of these components of my work complemented and supplemented the other. My expertise, conclusions, and observations concerning offender and victim behavior are therefore based on the totality of what I have learned from being simultaneously involved in training, research, and case consultation in the same area for over 25 years. 10. Some significant aspects of the training component of my work include: • "One learns most when teaching others" • I was an adjunct instructor with the University of Virginia, University of Pennsylvania, National College of District Attorneys, and National Judicial College • I provided instruction to law enforcement officers from all over the United States and foreign countries attending the FBI National Academy in courses accredited by the University of Virginia such as Applied Criminology, Criminal Profiling and Crime Analysis, Interpersonal Violence and Sexual Victimization of Children. • I provided instruction to over 50,000 law enforcement officers, prosecutors, social workers, mental health and medical personnel, judges, and other professionals at training schools, seminars, and conferences conducted all over the United States and in foreign countries on various aspects of the Sexual Victimization of Children (e.g., Deviant Criminal Sexuality, Sexual Homicide, Abducted Children, Behavioral Analysis, Sexual Exploitation of Children, Ritualistic Crime, Evaluation of Sex Offenders, Compliant Child Victims, Child Pornography, Computer Exploitation, and Child Sex Rings). 11. Some significant aspects of the research component of my work include: • I conducted research on "Use of Children in Pornography" funded by National Center on Child Abuse and Neglect, U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. • I was appointed a Senior Fellow Investigator by the University of Pennsylvania for a research project on the Linkages of Sexual Exploitation and Juvenile Delinquency Violence funded by Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention, U.S. Department of Justice (1984). • The results of this research and additional information were published in 1984 in a book titled, Child Pornography and Sex Rings and I was a contributing author to this book. • I was assigned to the Advisory Staff of the U.S. Attorney General's Commission on Pornography, U.S. Department of Justice (1986). • I was the Project Manager for the Serial Child Molester and Abductor Research Project funded by the Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention, U.S. Department of Justice. This project included interviewing dozens of offenders convicted of such crimes. 2 EFTA00188175 • I accumulated hundreds of case studies involving the sexual victimization of children. • As an FBI Agent, when doing this research, I had access to detailed law enforcement and other records (i.e., investigative reports, interviews of offenders and victims, crime scene photographs, laboratory reports, medical reports, computer records, child pornography, child erotica, collateral evidence, background information, pre-sentence evaluations, prison records, etc.) that are not normally available to mental health professionals and academic researchers. • I have authored more than 30 articles, monographs, and book chapters (published in "peer" reviewed publications) setting forth what I had learned about analyzing the criminal aspects of deviant sexual behavior and understanding how sex offenders and their child victims behave. • I received the Jefferson Award for Research on "Ritualistic Abuse of Children" from the University of Virginia, Charlottesville, Virginia (1990). • Since August 2001, I have served on the Research Advisory Board of the FBI National Center for the Analysis of Violent Crime (NCAVC) that evaluates and monitors research on the sexual victimization of children. 12. Some significant aspects of the case consultation component of my work include: • My job in the FBI BSU/NCAVC was not to investigate cases, but to consult on cases. For the past 25 years, I have consulted on thousands of specific cases from all over the United States and from many foreign countries and have been able to document broad patterns of behavior in sexual victimization of children cases. • I have analyzed thousands of cases and provided: o investigative, prosecutive, and sentencing guidance; o expert opinions, advice, and direction; and o behavioral analysis • I have provided this analysis to state and local police officers, FBI Agents, federal investigators, prosecutors, mental health and medical professionals, social workers, organizations providing access to children, defense attorneys, and civil attorneys. • My case consultations included requests for assistance in o the investigation and/or prosecution of criminal cases, o the filing of civil litigation, and o the development of procedures to protect children • I have consulted on cases and situations involving child pornography, child sexual abuse, incest, child sexual exploitation, child sex rings, compliant child victims, child prostitution, Internet crimes against children, nuisance sex offenses, ritualistic abuse of children, child abduction, sexual assault, rape, and sexual homicide. • As an FBI Agent, when doing these case consultations, I had access to detailed law enforcement records (i.e., investigative reports, interviews of offenders and victims, crime scene photographs, medical reports, laboratory reports, computer records, child pornography, child erotica, collateral evidence, etc.) that are not normally available to mental health professionals and academic researchers. • My analysis and conclusions in these cases were based on objectively evaluating in totality the most detailed and reliable information available. 3 EFTA00188176 13. Some significant indicators of the acceptance and recognition of my knowledge and expertise in the area of sexual victimization of children include: • I was invited to be a member of the Advisory Board for the Out of Home Abuse Research Project of the American Bar Association. • I was invited to be a member of the Advisory Board for the Program to Increase Understanding of Child Sexual Exploitation of the American Bar Association. • I was invited to be a participant to a child pornography conference sponsored by the American Medical Association. • I was invited to be a participant to a Planning Meeting on Child Pornography and Child Abuse sponsored by the National Academy of Sciences National Research Council. • I was a member of the editorial review board of Child Maltreatment, the Journal of the American Professional Society of Children (APSAC). • I was asked to and have peer reviewed articles for the International Journal of Child Abuse and Neglect, the Journal of Interpersonal Violence, Child Maltreatment, Sexual Abuse, the FBI Law Enforcement Bulletin, and The Police Chief. • The National Center for Missing & Exploited Children (NCMEC) has distributed more than 205,000 copies of the 4 editions of my monograph Child Molesters: A Behavioral Analysis. • I was the guest co-editor for the Special Issue of The APSAC Advisor Vol 14, No 2 (Spring 2002) on the topic of "The Compliant Child Victim." • My observations and analysis concerning compliant child victims were published in The APSAC Advisor, Vol 14, No 2 (Spring 2002) and as a chapter in Viewing Child Pornography on the Internet, Russell House Publishing, Dorset, United Kingdom (2005). • My observations and analysis concerning compliant child victims were presented at the Forensic Symposium sponsored by the Institute of Law, Psychiatry, and Public Policy, University of Virginia, Charlottesville, VA (2003) and at the Psychological and Legal Issues of Internet Abuse Images Conference, Department of Applied Psychology, University College, Cork, Ireland (2004). • Professionals would not be utilizing my knowledge and expertise for so long if it had no validity. • My work and findings concerning the sexual victimization of children have been cited and referenced in numerous publications and legal documents (e.g., affidavits for search warrants, legal briefs, court decisions). • I have been invited to present my findings before organizations such as: o Academy of Criminal Justice Sciences, o American Academy of Forensic Sciences, o Institute of Law, Psychiatry, and Public Policy, o Department of Psychiatric Medicine - Western State Hospital, o Department of Psychology, University of Alabama, o Johns Hopkins University, o St Luke Institute for Sexual Disorders, o Walter Reed Army Medical Center, o Lee Institute of Forensic Science & University of New Haven, 4 EFTA00188177 o University of Virginia, o University of Southern California, o National Council of Juvenile and Family Court Judges, o National Judicial College, o Flaschner Judicial Institute, o Bronx County Special Grand Jury, o Solicitor General of Canada, o Department of Defense Polygraph Institute, o National Association of Counsel for Children, o Association for Treatment of Sex Abusers (ATSA), o American Orthopsychiatric Association, o American Academy of Psychiatry and the Law, o American Psychological Association, o American Academy of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry, o Benjamin N.

Laming. Ken, you are one of the pioneers. You led the way. You opened our eyes. You taught us. You were always one step ahead. You're the coolest FBI agent we know. You've done more than we can count to protect kids. Thanks" • I have been interviewed concerning the nature and scope of the sexual victimization of children, by the CBS, NBC, ABC, Fox Networks, MSNBC, PBS, CNN, ESPN, Frontline, National Public Radio, Associated Press, Time Magazine, Newsweek, Reader's Digest, Life, Parade Magazine, Sports Illustrated, Ladies' Home Journal, People Magazine, Los Angeles Times, Washington Post, New York Times., Psychiatric News, National Law Journal APBnews.com Legal Times and dozens of local TV stations and newspapers. 14. I have testified 7 times before both the United States Senate and United States House of Representatives on various topics related to the sexual exploitation of children. Including: • On 4/11/84, I testified before the U.S. Senate Subcommittee on Juvenile Justice on "Preventing the Abuse of Children in Child Care Facilities: Pedophile Characteristics." • On 8/8/84, I testified before the U.S. Senate Subcommittee on Juvenile Justice on "Pedophile Collectors" • On 6/1185, I testified before the U.S. Senate Subcommittee Security and Terrorism on "Use of Computers by Pedophiles" 5 EFTA00188178 • On 10/31/85, I testified before the U.S. House of Representatives Select Committee on Children, Youth and Families on "Child Victims of Exploitation" 15.
