CONSULTING
I have been practicing as an expert witness/consultant since 2001 and as such have sat on
both sides of the table evaluating cases for both plaintiff and defense. Of the cases I have
accepted for review, approximately 65 percent are for the plaintiff and 35 percent for the
defense. Thus far, I have reviewed over 150 cases in over thirty s tates and have provided
expert testimony on approximately 90 occasions. I have also testified in at trial numerous
1983 civil federal actions. I have never been disqualified as an expert. For the most part, my
expertise is in the area of use of force but I have provided testimony in the areas of proper
investigative procedures and police supervision. I consider cases for both defense and
plaintiff, and favor neither.
In April 2009 I consulted for a Hollywood production company by reviewed and providing
creative feedback on a screenplay for a television pilot. The company, Saint of Circumstance
Productions is a Twentieth Century Fox company.
I have served as consultant for the Federal Research Division of the U.S. Library of Congress
and the Director of Central Intelligence Crime and Narcotics Center in Washington DC (in
January 2003.)
I have conducted police training seminars for the Public Agency Training Council located at
5101 Decatur Blvd. Ste. L., Indianapolis, IN. Topics included: criminal investigation;
undercover operations and informant management (in Columbus, OH (1989-1991).
In 2006 I, along with two police detectives, wrote a model policy and companion paper on
digital crime scene photography for the International Association of Chiefs of Police (IACP),
which is used as a national guideline for police policy development. This model policy is
currently available through the IACP.
