 We are now using what we have learned in your book and it works great. We are still fighting with how to start different interviews, but once we get moving, it just works. This is now slowly spreading to other departments. Our confession rate has sky rocketed.  My bigest hurdle is getting cops to READ THE BOOK and PRACTICE THE BOOK (we now call it THE BOOK).  

 What would the cost be to get you to Terre Haute Indiana to train? We would be offering the class to all of the surroundind agencies to cover the costs.

Re:  "We Get Confessions Seminar"

On behalf of the Lewiston Police Department I would like to express my sincere gratitude for your professional and informative interrogation/Interview Seminar.

The police officers learned new interrogation techniques for successfully obtaining quality confessions in all areas of law enforcement.  We are very fortunate to have been given the opportunity to learn from the "best".

Thank you again for all your efforts.

Very truly yours,
Sergeant Frank Previte
Lewiston Police Department

Cherokee County Sheriff’s Department

It has been a great pleasure to have hosted your class this past two years.  There is little doubt that during my time in Law Enforcement I have never attended a class which produced so much practical information in so little time.  Further, it is rare to find a two day class for less money.

I have been asked why we host your class if there is no financial gain for our department.  I always answer by saying that the gain is tremendous and is reflected in the high number of solved cases our department now has.  It is my intention to make this class mandatory for every member of my department who wears a badge.  We have had no unsolved homicides of other major crimes since I have been in office and I attribute that (to a high degree) to having officers who were trained to not just interview people, but to get confessions.

Also of particular importance to me was the fact that unlike many other courses I have attended, officers in your course always return to class on time, and 100% of the attending officers attended the whole class.  That is an accomplishment which speaks volumes for your ability to relate to the men and women for law enforcement.  It is also unusual to have such a wide array of officers travel so far to attend a two day course.  We have had, as you know, officers from Missouri State Water Patrol, Kansas Bureau of Investigation, Kansas State Fire Marshall's Office, Sheriffs Department, Capital Police, etc…. all attend your class and word of mouth has made attendance in your course an honor among those who know.

I look forward to hosting your class year and year for as long as you continue to teach.  God Bless you.

Bob Creech - Sheriff, Cherokee County Kansas

City of Fort Thomas, Kentucky

A number of months ago Detective Mike Jansen gave me a copy of your book "We get confessions".  My first thought, as I began reading it was "This guy is no Shakespeare".  My second thought was "He writes the way cops talk". And my third thought was "Hey, there’s some good stuff in here".  By the time I finished the book I knew that we needed to sponsor your seminar, which we did on September 19 and 20.

I blocked off those two days on my schedule because I wanted to see your Seminar for myself. I’m glad I did.  It was entertaining, the time went fast, but the most important thing was that I saw for myself that you are teaching cops things that cops need to learn.  On at least three occasions my officers and I traded looks over cases you described that dovetailed with cases we’ve had.  On all three occasions the skills you teach might have saved us a monstrous amount of trouble and bad public relations.

By the end of the second day I not only knew I was going to order a copy of your book for everyone on my department, I also knew we were going to sponsor another one of your seminars.   I realized, as a 27-year veteran in law enforcement, that what you teach is not just important to investigators but to street cops as well and I want my younger officers to learn these techniques now.

"We Get Confessions" has no pictures or illustrations, but the book is filled with a great deal of quality information on efficient interrogation. -Police, March 1997

Montgomery Co. (Ohio) Sheriff's Office

"We Get Confessions" is an excellent teaching guide for investigators.

Lt. Dave Spaulding, 

"Your book is the most widely used piece of material in the Marshall Police Department Library. It has been read or is being read now by 65% of my investigative and patrol officers. We have seen an increase in the confession ratio's from our officers who have read your book." 

James B. Simmerman, Chief of Police, 

"This is the best book we've seen on the hard-core secrets of getting valid confessions from criminals. Written by a seasoned homicide detective, it describes hundreds of innovative techniques for getting a perp to open up and 'fess up."

Palidin Press

New Buffalo Police Department, Michigan

"I have read many interrogation books and attended several classes. Your book, WE GET CONFESSIONS, is by far, the best I have read and most useful ! The first week after having read the book and using tactics learned from the book, I was able to obtain four written confessions on a forgery complaint ! There was little evidence and a confession was the only way to obtain the warrants. By the way, all plead guilty."

Chief of Police, Thomas J. Harken, 

Montague Police Department, Michigan

"I wanted to take the time to thank you for writing such a fantastic book....Recently I interviewed a subject with over 20 years experience in the intelligence field while working for the military. The subject told me right at the beginning of the interview that he knew when to keep his mouth shut. I got a partial confession within 40 minutes. It was all I needed to make my case. It's doubtful that I would have got the admission if I hadn't used some of the techniques I read about in your book. "

Officer Shane D. Brown

LosAngeles County Sheriff's Department STARS Center

"I have read the book and, in my humble opinion, it is excellent! Can you please send me another 25 copies of the book for our next course--ASAP."

"To make a long story short, I got the book and read it.... I think very highly of the book."
