| TESTIMONIALS
"Just wanted to thank you again for bringing Inside the Tape back to the Cincinnati Police Academy. The evaluations were excellent. One student wrote, 'The best course I’ve ever taken.' Another wrote, 'This should become something that is offered on a regular basis.' Another wrote, 'Very hands on, practical info that is no BS and isn’t restrained by personal bias or money.' I sent the evaluations to our chief. He was very impressed and wants to ensure we arrange the training again. Great job, and let's arrange training for 2009."

"Regarding your training, I personally found it to be one of the best trainings I have attended in my 36-year career. The structure of your presentation was easy to follow, and it was gripping. Your narration, sense of humor, insight, and experience really brought the training home in an entertaining and educational way and it was awesome. Thank you so much."
