Monday Mar 18, 2024
Episode: 00203 Released on March 18, 2024 Description: There are transferable skills in every industry – you just have to know how to frame it. In this episode, Amanda Wiggins explains how she transferred her skills as an accountant to a financial investigator to a fraud analyst supervisor to a senior intelligence analyst. Amanda's meticulous attention to detail and tenacity helped her review thousands of financial records to identify fraudulent transactions and activities. Amanda explains how coming from a field outside of law enforcement helped bring a new perspective to investigations that made a difference in analyzing and solving crimes. Amanda and Jason discuss the crime analysis scene in Florida, including the Florida Department of Law Enforcement (FDLE), as well as the certification offered. Amanda is currently a senior crime analyst for the Florida Gaming Control Commission.

ATWJE - Anthony Bush - Jail Calls Rock
Monday Mar 11, 2024
Monday Mar 11, 2024
Episode: 00202 Released on March 11, 2024 Description: In this episode, Anthony Bush shares how he went from civilian analytics to the US Air Force and then back to civilian analytics in another part of the country. Anthony specializes in imagery and social network analysis and shares how he used jail calls and a gang database to help piece together a case (badge story). This is a case he initiated, and it is so good that the FBI stole it. Anthony's myriad of experiences make him a well-rounded analyst. Anthony is currently a criminal intelligence analyst for the Harris County (TX) Sheriff’s Office (and why he is still at the Sheriff’s Office may surprise you).

ATWJE - Kurt Smith - Man Ahead of His Time
Monday Feb 26, 2024
Monday Feb 26, 2024
Episode: 00200 Released on February 26, 2024 Description: Welcome to our 200th episode! In this corner, we got a guy who knows how to get a TKO (technical knockout) with his TKO (tackle known offenders) program: Kurt Smith! And in this corner, you know him, you love him, your host, Jason Elder! [ding ding] Thank you everyone for all your support and we hope you enjoy this exciting episode.
In this episode, Kurt Smith discusses his transition from the military to a sworn officer to a crime analyst to the ArcGIS guy. Kurt is a man ahead of his time, optimizing technology in the early 90s to investigate and close cases. His badge story involves putting himself in the mind of a suspected rapist and murderer to retrace the potential steps. Kurt's intuition uncovered additional leads to the case that ultimately lead to the apprehension of the offender. While this doesn't bring back lost loved ones, Kurt hope that these case closures would bring some peace to the surviving families. Kurt has since moved into consulting work after an impressive career in law enforcement and analysis. He, along with other well-known analysts in the field, paved the way for aspiring analysts.
