When
Corporations Spy by Tom Burghardt
As if illegal spying and dirty tricks by state agencies weren’t
threat enough to democratic institutions and grassroots activist
organizations, hundreds of corporate spy outfits are doing their
part—to defend the “homeland” and the bottom
line—for the multinational grifters who plunder the world’s
wealth.

Magazine Cover Feature Story: Anna Chapman-The Spy Who Loves it
It’ just full of mystery and intrigue! Anna Chapman was a spy.
A Russian spy. She got caught, was arrested and deported back
to Russia. In exchange for her release back to the Russia, the
United States got back four agents who were in a Russian prison.
Anna caused an international incident and she can not seem to
get enough. While she was in jail, he name became a household
word and she became an instant media celebrity. Likely not a good
thing for a spy but she didn’t even know it until her attorney
told her.

40 Red Flags which May Indicate Workers’ Compensation Fraud-A
Pursuit Magazine Article
Claims adjusters look for the presence of red flags in workers’
compensation (WC) claims to determine whether or not a claim is
legitimate. Red flags consist of particular conditions or behaviors
commonly found in fraudulent claims. While the primary responsibility
of recognizing red flags lies with both employers and claims adjusters.
Private investigators should at least be familiar with them. Seeing
one or two red flags does not necessarily indicate fraud however
it should, at the very least, alert the adjuster to the possibility
of fraud.

Documenting
Field Confessions A John Reid Article
Following a successful interrogation the investigator willconvert
the oral confession to a court admissible document. This document
may be handwrittenby the suspect, a formal statement which the
suspect signs or an electronicallyrecorded confession. Regardless
ofits final form, a suspect's confession will be the strongest
piece of evidencepresented in a court of law and may be used
to establish probable cause toobtain arrest or search warrants
which may result in further evidence orresolve other cases; in
short, a suspect's confession is often the lynch-pin toa successful
prosecution.

I hesitated to include this article since cell phone pings has

by various State and Federal law enforcement agencies.
