Although there has been an increase in cyber crime (crime related to computers and computer networks), most New England law enforcement agencies do not have the manpower or other resources to focus on such investigations full-time. However, as a recent New Britain Herald article explains, many agencies are working hard to provide training and personnel to keep up with the rise in computer-related crimes, whether they be crimes against children, fraud, or other criminal activity involving computers.
