Which are eligible offenses for expedited transfer?

• A. All of the above
• B. Stalking
• C. Domestic violence
• D. Sexual assault of a dependent by another service member not related

Answer: (A)

Expedited transfer is used when safety and the integrity of the investigation require moving a case quickly to protect the victim and preserve evidence. Offenses like stalking, domestic violence, and sexual assault of a dependent by another service member not related are prioritized because they involve ongoing risk, power imbalances, or victim vulnerability and may require separating the parties or relocating to a safer or more appropriate setting. Because each of these situations can benefit from rapid transfer to a different installation or jurisdiction to safeguard the victim and ensure due process, all listed offenses are eligible for expedited transfer. In short, the policy targets cases where immediate protective action and smooth continuation of investigation and proceedings are essential.
