Cyber Crime Section

Jonathan P. Hooks, Chief

The Cyber Crime Section is a specialized unit that investigates and prosecutes a wide variety of cybercrimes; advises and assists other Sections and Divisions of the Office with issues involving electronic, computer, and internet-related evidence and legal processes; and works closely with the Department of Justice’s Office of International Affairs (“OIA”) on an initiative to expedite the processing of Mutual Legal Assistance Treaty (“MLAT”) requests from foreign countries that seek electronic evidence in the United States in support of foreign criminal investigations and proceedings.
