Description: In this episode, Kevin Mitchell shares how he leverages technology (e.g., a drone, smartwatch, etc.) to investigate a homicide and kidnapping case (two separate analyst badge stories), and his experience working at a real-time crime center (RTCC). Kevin started his career out as an IT and Security Officer; he highlights how he transferred into a local police department position, and discusses the learning curve during the transition as he received his degree in criminal justice after securing a law enforcement analyst role. Kevin is currently an IT Specialist and Criminal Analyst for the Oxford (AL) Police Department.
