Phylip has been a presenter in the area of Cognitive Interview and Confrontational Interrogation since 1994.

 He presents several times annually for the Robert Presley Institute of Criminal Investigation.  This is part of the CORE Investigative course through P.O.S.T. (Police Officer Standards of Training) in California .

 As part of this class, Phyl also presents a four hour presentation on Miranda Law. 

 This class is presented from an experiential learning base and includes active student participation throughout the three day class.

 On the third day, professional actors are brought in to test the skills of the students.  Each student interviews or interrogates an actor for approximately 40 minutes in a real life scenario.

      PRIVATE INVESTIGATIONS

    For more than 20 years, professionals from all related disciplines, have contacted me to assist them in the investigation of suspicious burn injuries and other forms of child abuse.  This has consisted of report review, photo analysis of injuries, discussions related to causation and force , phone consultations and more.  Some cases require my own personal investigation, report preparation and occasionally court room testimony as a certified expert.  

    Traditionally the initial contact is by phone or e-mail.  I do not request specific information or opinions at this time.  I prefer to view photographs, when available, and report back to the requestor what facts I have determined from this limited information. This eliminates the possibility of me simply agreeing with you and your local professionals, vs., forming an independent and un biased conclusion, strengthening credibility.   I will, when necessary, request further facts to determine if the initial history given by a caretaker was factual or not.  Photographs can be sent postal or sent via e-mail.  This practice has proven very successful, not only on a local basis but in numerous cases in other states and countries. 

    Although employed by Police Departments and Prosecutor Offices during my career, I have been responsible for exonerating as well as prosecuting offenders as a result of my investigations. When I investigate, my personal goal is to seek out the truth of the matter.  My services have been sought by Prosecutors and Defenders alike.
