Secure ReportConfidential submissionBen Franklin PSF supports cultural-property matters requiring careful documentation, specialist handling, disciplined security, and coordination across legal and institutional boundaries.
Cultural-heritage expertise, evidence and legal review, protective services, and secure logistics work within clearly defined roles.
No entry, seizure, transfer, or custodial action without documented legal authority.
Handling and disposition are informed by archaeological, institutional, and community expertise.
Files, objects, packaging, and transfers are documented through controlled procedures.
The objective is an eventless, accountable recovery—not confrontation or spectacle.
Ben Franklin PSF does not conduct private seizures, unauthorized entries, independent law-enforcement actions, or recovery outside documented authority.
Public reports begin an assessment. They do not authorize an operation. Any later engagement is separately reviewed, documented, and coordinated with appropriate legal and cultural authorities.
