Haiti: Women, Girls Rape Victims In Haiti Quake Aftermath

   Thanks to Matt for sending me this.  I find it disgusting that we are still talking about a lack of security in Haiti. Especially when there are plenty of security resources to call upon in the U.S. and world.  What are they doing with all the millions of dollars raised for the relief effort is […]

Industry Talk: How To Strengthen The Afghan National Police, By DynCorp CEO William Ballhaus

     All warfare is based on deception. Hence, when we are able to attack, we must seem unable; when using our forces, we must appear inactive; when we are near, we must make the enemy believe we are far away; when far away, we must make him believe we are near. -Sun Tzu

Bounties: $10,000 Reward For Information On Missing Energy Executive Doug Schantz

   Alright, lets find this guy.  The reward is split in half, with $5,000 from Crimestoppers of New Orleans and the other $5,000 coming from Sequent Energy Management. As this thing drags out, I am sure we will see this reward get bigger.
   It also sounds like police suspect foul play, and it will be interesting what other […]

Funny Stuff: Steven Seagal’s ‘Lawman’ Series Is Going Global!

   This is a weird show.  There is very real crime and law enforcement going on, but then you add this weird Hollywood Steven Seagal celebrity stuff, and you just kind of shake your head. But I guess it is a big enough hit to where they want this show overseas.  Now imagine if Chuck […]

Industry Talk: DoD Takes Over Afghan Police Training After IG Cites DoS Failures

   Late last year, I brought this story up during the time that DynCorp was protesting the whole deal.  Now it is official that DoD is taking over the project. Which is probably good, because of how much infantry related activities are involved with war time policing. That, and getting the training standardized so that police […]

Law Enforcement: Officers Lose 243 Homeland Security Guns

   Interesting report, and I thought private industry was bad.  These guys are government and the report only covers two years! I wonder how many weapons were lost in all the other years not covered in the report? -Matt

Law Enforcement: The Heroin Road–A Lethal Business Model Targets Middle America

   Fascinating.  These guys have definitely tapped into a drug dealing business model that is far more superior than the major cartels. Small de-centralized  businesses, all getting their heroin from one region in Mexico, and distributing it ‘pizza delivery style’. lol And get this, they are focused on customer service and satisfaction.  Did the Xalisco […]

Crime: Heists Targeting Truckers On Rise

   I think this is to be expected, with the recession as it is.  There is probably an increase in all types of crimes involving theft or robberies.  As to the solution to what is going on here?  Easy, the trucker needs take responsibility of his load, and use some basic tools and methods to […]

Bounties: $50,000 For The 20 Questions Bandits And $10,000 For The Blue Note Bandit, California

   I hope these thugs get caught, and it would be really cool if it was a FJ reader.  It’s stuff like this, where a Bounty Hunter Mobile Application would totally shine.  Both Bank of America and Wells Fargo could have easily signed on with mobile application, and updated the last known position as tips […]

Jobs: International Police Advisor, Haiti

   Excellent news for those former police officers out there that qualify. I am not the POC or recruiter, and please go through the links provided to apply.  Warning though, this is DynCorp, and their recruitment customer service tends to be kind of slow or disjointed.  So roll with it guys and gals.  Good luck.
