ATWJE - Dr. Andrew (Drew) Dasher - Voodoo & Puzzles

Episode: 00168 Released on July 17, 2023 Description: Dr. Andrew (Drew) Dasher joins us this week with how he transitioned from a sworn officer to a crime analyst, and the benefits it gave him from being on both sides. Drew shares two badge stories this episode, one of a bank robbery series and another of a sexual assault that was taking place in an apartment complex. Drew shares his perspective on the case as both an officer and an analyst, giving us a close look on what criminal investigations entail. Drew is currently a senior threat and risk analyst for the University of Texas Police at Houston. 

“Humping the call” has got to be one of the funniest phrases we’ve heard this year thus far. Do you have any funny phrases you’ve used or heard in law enforcement that you want to share with us? Feel free to comment on any of our social media platforms and/or YouTube channel. This episode also contains the everso funny segment Sh*t You Hear in the Office; as always, have one (or more) to share? Hit us up!~
