Major Case Assistance Team Training

Recently, I was honored to spend a day training some of the best and brightest Investigators in the Chicagoland area. This group of 51 attended a day of training on the Topic of Criminal Profiling. I have been lecturing and training in this area since 1992. I would like to thank MCAT Director Nate, Sgt. Rick and Bob from the County for putting this together and allowing me to work with a great group of men and women. May all of them stay safe in their pursuits!

DR. WAYNE JOHNSON
Thursday, November 20th
7:00 pm at The Book Stall
From Chicago's original gangsters to the Outfit's decline in recent years, Dr. Wayne Johnson is well-versed in the organized crime that long ensnared the city. After 25 years with the Chicago Police Department - his last assignment supervising a unit within the Organized Crime Division - Johnson was appointed Chief Investigator for the renowned Chicago Crime Commission.
 
Now coordinator of Harper College's law enforcement programs and widely considered a top authority on organized crime, Johnson has written A History of Violence: An Encyclopedia of 1,400 Chicago Mob Murders. The 300-plus page tome is the product of painstaking research into newspaper articles, police reports, coroners' reports and other archives over a 14-year period.
 
This event is free and open to the public.
