I was employed by a local investigations company as the director of security from July 1996 to November 2013. My career with this company was filled with hard work, dedication, positive accomplishments and service awards, along with many letters of recommendation after leaving this company.

My untimely, unplanned departure from this company had nothing to do with my performance, professionalism, reputation, honesty or integrity.

After seeing the recent negative publicity this company has been receiving, I felt compelled to write this and relay that I was not aware of the company’s actions and had absolutely no involvement with their acts. Recent news articles stated the company appointed new leadership and enhanced procedures to fix the problems that occurred.

For those who know me, they know I am a person who gives and gets respect and a man of integrity. For those who know me, they know I had nothing to do with this company’s actions.

You only get one reputation. I want to make sure that everyone, especially those who are casual acquaintances or just know me by my name, know that I had no knowledge or involvement with this company’s actions.
