Episode: 00198 Released on February 12, 2024 Description: Get into the ACTION of crime analysis and learn about the MAGIC that happens behind the scenes. In this episode, Patrick Baldwin shares how he helped make Sin City a safer place through his efforts in task forces and counterterrorism initiatives. Jason and Patrick discuss the benefits and gripes about COMPSTAT and how automated dashboards simply cannot replace a living, critically-thinking analyst. Patrick brings his Chicago-born wit and humor into this episode, recounting his analytical adventures in a whimsical fashion. Patrick has since retired with his family in the Midwest but continues to spread the good word of crime analysis as a consultant with Evidence Based Crime Analytics, and hopes to one day better explain to his kiddos that daddy wasn't a cop, but something more.

Amanda provides tips for those looking to break into the field with limited experience beyond the usual volunteering or interning route.

Episode: 00194 Released on January 15, 2024 Description:
Learning doesn't stop after your degree, or even your second or third. In this episode, Alexander (Alex) Gulde shares his academic journey and how he ultimately decided on law enforcement analytics as his chosen profession after many years of working in policy research and writing which had a myriad of transferable skills.

Alex is heavily invested in the law enforcement analysis training programs in Florida and has taught a variety of topics related to public safety formally at academic institutions and through professional associations. His analyst badge story involves the administrative analysis needed for the merger of multiple departments.

Episode: 00190 Released on December 18, 2023 Description: Neil Hubbert always knew he wanted to have a career in law enforcement – it was like continuing the family business! Neil started out his career working various positions within Booz Allen Hamilton, a government contractor, notably as a diagnostic analyst and an intelligence analyst where he worked with a myriad of law enforcement agencies with their respective investigations. As part of his job, communication was key as he needed to help ensure different agencies didn’t impede on one another’s investigations (i.e., conduct proper deconflictions). After seven years with the agency, Neil continued his career as a trainer, helping multiple law enforcement agencies improve their analytical and investigative processes. Neil is currently a research associate for IDEA Analytics.
