| 520 | |a Vehicle theft for export has been identified as a major concern for domestic and international security. Export oriented vehicle theft (EOVT) has become an entrenched transnational activity because, in part, the activity has been linked to the financing of terrorism and transnational organized criminal groups. EOVT has been the focus of previous researchers but none have highlighted the central role of seaports in the movement of stolen vehicles. As a geographical locus point for EOVT and other criminal activities, seaports are a central space for applying environmental criminological approaches. This study examines the role of seaports in EOVT. First, I explore what is known about EOVT networks and their use of maritime methods of transportation; second, I use crime script analysis to examine how EOVT groups use seaports to move vehicles from east coast North American seaports to destinations worldwide, focusing on West Africa; and finally I examine the functional role of stolen vehicles in destination countries as a form of "moveable currency." To address these lines of inquiry this study utilizes crime script analysis to examine EOVT cases sourced from publicly available legal case files, internal law enforcement case files from the Waterfront Commission of New York Harbor and interviews with law enforcement officials at the Port of NY/NJ and the Port of Baltimore. | ||
