Expert Witness
Competent, Persuasive, and Trustworthy
Extensive corrections experience, advancing from a corrections officer to a top administrator of a large county corrections department over the course of a thirty-two (32) year career, translates into immediate credibility when addressing a jury or undergoing judicial review. That experience is enhanced by current certifications from the National Commission on Correctional Health Care and the American Jail Association for having demonstrated a comprehensive understanding of the associated national corrections standards, as well as certification by the United States Department of Justice to serve as an auditor. Clients can expect in-depth professional consultation along with a detailed, comprehensive written assessment of events, framed with an understanding of correctional practices, standards, and when appropriate, subjective experiential nuance. Over twenty years of experience testifying in varied settings, including depositions and trials.
Prison Rape Elimination Act (PREA) Audit
Experienced and Independent
Certified by the U.S. Department of Justice to audit adult correctional facilities to measure compliance with the standards and individual provisions delineated in the Code of Federal Regulations in 2012. As a jail administrator I was involved in the adaptation of the promulgated PREA standards and thereafter implemented the required policy and practice changes. I bring that underpinning experience with me when auditing facilities or preparing them for audit. As an independent contractor with an impeccable reputation, facilities can expect a rigorous audit to ensure full compliance, and when necessary, detailed corrective action recommendations.
