The old DOD CITF HQ on Fort Belvoir, the nerve center for the investigation of al-Qaida in the GWOT, including those in Iraq, Afghanistan and #Guantanamo, which was a high-side SCIF—and where I faced the leadership challenges of my lifetime—is now a maintenance warehouse. You can check out, but…

#Torture is an act of cowardice It results in corrupted intelligence, tainted evidence, flawed and uninformed decisions, and gross #HumanRights violations #MendezPrinciples on #EffectiveInterviewing provides a roadmap for improved practice - based on law, science and ethics #PolicingWithVirtue

I spoke with the #LeavingHotelCalifornia filmmakers about what it was like working undercover Inside the Real #NCIS, buying elephant tusks and cheetah skins in Kenya, in anti-poaching and narcotic suppression operations.

I spoke with the #LeavingHotelCalifornia filmmakers about what it is like Inside the Real #NCIS, and #Guantanamo Bay in the 90’s during Operation Sea Signal, with the motto “Care for Migrants”

While two copies of #UnjustifiableMeans were returned to sender — banned from the #Guantanamo prison library. Even with 113 redactions, some more than a page - #censorship. Stay tuned for the release of #LeavingHotelCalifornia to learn more about why I only have one copy left. #TruthMatters

In this video short I talked about the challenges in policing and the restoration of trust. We should abandon deceptive practices, such as the #FalseEvidencePloy & evolve to science-based interviewing. “We should not be promoting a culture of lying.” #FalseConfessions #TrustMatters #TruthMatter

🚨Cleveland rocks! Prosecutors & investigators reject “false evidence ploys” — deceptive practices — and are evolving to Science-Based Interviewing & #Interrogation. Legacy tactics & the “confession obsession” contribute to #FalseConfessions/#WrongfulConvictions. #EffectiveInterviewing rules!
