Miami Dade Police Training

In June, I was fortunate enough to go to Miami for a week long training in their Forensic Digital Image Processing Workshop. Using Photoshop, we were taught how to legally enhance photos from crime scenes, as well as documents where the writing was obscured or marked through.

We were taught by Brian Dalrymple and Associates. Brian is from Canada and has many years experience working with photo enhancement.

Phil Sanfilippo and Rosa Holtz were the course coordinators. Phil is a member of Miami Dade Police Dept.

On the last day we did a mock trial and had an attorney come in and do the questioning. He was tough, but we learned quite a bit from him.

I am looking forward to going to more of the classes offered by Miami Dade Police.
