Ms. Markiewicz has built the entire intelligence protocol for the unit - integrating open-source, geospatial, and crime analysis techniques to target trafficking. Her unit works alongside law enforcement to investigate any potential instances of exploitation. She utilizes technology, social media, and various other tools to develop pattern of life for offenders, and look for indicators of trafficking through covert means.
