ITNJ Commissioners
The role of the ITNJ Commissioner is to investigate cases, or direct their investigation; to present evidence to the Judicial Commission, or direct evidence to be presented; to collaborate in developing strategy; and to promote this Commission of Inquiry, such that its Mission and Goals be achieved.
Commissioners are fact-finders, educators, and moderators. Their role is to serve as an intermediary between survivors of child abuse as well as prisoners or known abusers willing to give testimony, and a judicial process of inquiry that is rigorous and that seeks to document in a transparent manner, these crimes against children in all their forms.
Uniquely, the Commissioners seek to fill the knowledge gaps that have not been addressed by governments, think tanks, academics or others — to strive to define and explain how many children go missing every year and what precisely happens to them, jurisdiction by jurisdiction.
