2022 in Review and Looking Forward to a New Year
What a year it has been! Bevel Gardner & Associates has been busier than ever. Our experts have taught at 25 agencies across the country, with over 500 students.
Much of the summer was spent in Colorado, enjoying some cooler weather. Grif snapped this photo of Pikes Peak when he was in Trinidad, Colorado. We really had a great time. teaching a few new courses and meeting many new students.
Ross Gardner received recognition as a distinguish member of the International Association for Bloodstain Pattern Analysis. “Members who have rendered significant service to the discipline or the Association or have achieved special qualifications in the field of Bloodstain Pattern Analysis may be nominated for the Distinguished Member Award.”
In 2022, Cele Rossi joined our team of experts. Cele has a Master Peace Officer’s License with 22 years of law enforcement experience. Since her promotion to the crime laboratory in 2002, she has been court qualified as an expert in latent print examination, bloodstain pattern analysis, crime scene reconstruction and shooting incident reconstruction. Cele has been an exciting addition to BGA.
We also welcomed back Kim Duddy, retired Washington State Patrol Crime Laboratory, who has over 28 years of experience. She has expertise in crime scene reconstruction, bloodstain pattern analysis, and shooting incident reconstruction.
Ms. Duddy instructed numerous classes and workshops for law enforcement groups, medical examiners’ offices, and trial counsel groups on physical evidence recognition, documentation, and collection; crime scene processing; and bloodstain pattern analysis during her tenure with the WSPCLD. Ms. Duddy continues to instruct in bloodstain pattern analysis and crime scene reconstruction.
