I am retired Special Agent that worked<br />for the US Department of Housing and Urban Development and the<br />Department of Veterans Affairs for over 20 years. What I will<br />discuss is the actual cases that I was the primary investigator and<br />most were “white collar” fraud cases which resulted in<br />convictions. A desire to be in law enforcement started at a young age<br />for me and as I look back at my young adventures as a boy, I realized<br />they played a part in my future career. <br /><br />Many of the details and the actual<br />stories are public record. During my Special Agent career I was the<br />affiant for 25 search warrants and each one of these affidavits told<br />a story. I have changed the names of the defendants, just to keep the<br />ghosts away but other details are fairly accurate to what happened. <br />I don't have a lot of source material from then, but have a pretty<br />good memory.<br />If you have a desire to go into federal<br />law enforcement, this will provide some background and education, and<br /> insight into “white collar” criminal investigations. I hope<br />these stories are both informative and entertaining.<br />I retired in 2012, and have been<br />working as a computer forensic analyst and manager for several large<br />companies.<br />This first podcast that I'm recording<br />is called “Creative Staging”. Being creative at work can be fun<br />and productive, but I will begin this story as a boy.
