The Domestic Violence Fatality Review Board (DV FRB) is a multidisciplinary team that conducts retrospective reviewes of fatalities involving victims of domestic violence. The mission of the DV FRB is to prevent domestic violence fatalities by improving the response of individuals, the community and government agencies to domestic violence. The DV FRB case review meetings are closed to the public pursuant to D.C.. Official Code §2-575(b)(1) as the law or court order requires that a particular matter or proceeding not be public; §2-575(b)(10) to discuss personnel matters and § 2-575(b)(14) to plan, discuss, or hear reports concerning ongoing or planned investigations of alleged criminal or civil misconduct or violations of law or regulations, if disclosure to the public would harm the investigation.”
