Next Episode: ATWJE - Josie McNeely - The Analyst You Know

Episode: 00148 Released on February 27, 2023
Description: Realists know where they want to go, but dreamers are already there. In this episode, Renee Richardson discusses how she dreamt about being a crime analyst, and how she made it happen. Nowadays she helps others achieve their dreams through her continual work as a trainer, consultant, and mentor. Renee’s badge story pertains to the Granddad Bandit, a serial bank robber who hit 25 banks in 13 states. Renee broke down how investigations and analytics were done compared to today, and how information sharing among surrounding agencies was still as crucial in solving crimes back then as it is today. Renee is currently retired, but continues to give back to the profession through her leadership consulting work.

CHALLENGE: There are Easter eggs in one of the tables of the Excel chapter that Jason wrote for the IACA textbook. First-person to email us at [email protected] about what the Easter eggs are will receive a $20 gift card from us. Happy hunting!
