Episode: 00155 Released on April 17, 2023Description: In this episode, Brianne Fenton gives aspiring analysts tips on how to secure an internship, succeed in an interview, and prepare for the day-to-day activities of a working analyst. Brianne shares two badge stories in this episode: first, identifying killers in a robbery-gone-wrong via social media, and second, identifying the shooter of a former ICE agent. Brianne emphasizes the importance of social media research and analysis in investigations as many criminals do not have formal ownership of much, making them less likely to show up in databases that services such as CLEAR or TLO pull from. Brianne gives insights on the day-to-day operations of an analyst working in a real-time crime center, and expresses the pros and cons of this position. Brianne is currently a Senior Crime Analyst for the South Bend Police Department.

Episode: 00153 Released on April 3, 2023Description: Karie Nordland sets the record for youngest person to network with a law enforcement professional on our show at ~12 years old (seventh grade), and another record for identifying a subject via social media that it became a fun past-time at her agency. In this episode, Karie discusses how she knew she wanted to be in the law enforcement field at an early age, and the classes and internships she partook in to achieve her goals – now she’s spewing crime analysis all over the place! Karie does a class on using social media as a (powerful) tool to assist in investigations; Karie breaks down the main lessons of her class, but we definitely recommend attending it whenever she presents it! Karie’s badge story involves a female-led and driven investigation that promoted solidarity and stood against misogyny using all available resources to bring the perpetrator to justice. Karie is currently a Crime Analyst II for the Lakewood (CO) Police Department.

Episode: 00152 Released on March 27, 2023Description: In this compelling episode, Allison Davids shares a traumatic story, and honestly, you do this job long enough, and you’ll likely rack up quite a few of your own. Allison gives us an overview of the event, how she and her department handled it, and how she’s coping with it now. Allison’s badge story involves a gun investigation workingwith multiple federal agents, and giving a presentation to then-Attorney General, William Barr. Allison is currently a criminal intelligence analyst for the Hamilton County (OH) Sheriff’s Office. 
As mentioned, you do this job long enough, and you’re bound to have a few traumatic “war stories,” to share. If you’re comfortable and willing, we’d love to hear yours. Your story, just like Allison’s, will let other analysts know that they aren’t alone, and that there is a light at the end of the tunnel after a traumatic event on the job. If interested, please send a voice clip of your story to leapodcasts@gmail.com. If you would rather stay anonymous, you can send us a transcript to read verbatim on your behalf. Thank you for your support and engagement on such an important and impactful topic within the law enforcement analytical community!
