In 1994, Joe Buckley, the president of John E. Reid and Associates, attended a 3-Day Street Gang training seminar that was held in Chicago, IL. John E. Reid & Associates is one of the top law enforcement training companies in the country. The reason Mr. Buckley attended this training seminar was that his company was interested in developing a training program to teach police officers and federal agents how to safely and effectively work gang and drug investigations.

One of the instructors teaching at this gang seminar was Pat McCarthy, a 25yr. veteran of the Chicago Police Department. Mr. Buckley was very impressed with McCarthy’s training segment and asked him to develop a 1-day training seminar on Gang and Drug Investigations.

McCarthy developed this 1-day seminar based on his personnel experiences and the street tested techniques and tactics he learned while working with some of the best cops and federal agents in the U.S. and abroad.

In its first year, this training program was presented in 44 cities across the country. The 1-day seminar received rave reviews from the cops and agents that attended.

In its second year, the seminar evolved into a 2-day program that was known as “Street Crimes”. After numerous requests for more information by the Street Crimes attendees, a second training program was developed by McCarthy called Surveillance, Stakeouts, and Undercover Operations.

In July of 2000 both of these training seminars were combined into a 3-day seminar called “Street Crimes”. This very informative and entertaining seminar has steadily grown in popularity and is presently hosted in over 120 cities throughout the U.S., Canada, and Mexico.

The content of the “Street Crimes” seminar is constantly being updated and is only taught by police officers and federal agents that have at least 25yrs. of actual street experience.

99% of the thousands of police officers and federal agents that have attended this training have rated it Excellent or Very Good. We offer a complete money back guarantee.
