Aric W. Dutelle has been involved in law enforcement since 1999. He is currently the program director of the Forensic Investigation program at the University of Wisconsin–Platteville. Dutelle has trained thousands of personnel in ethical considerations and proper methodologies. He has worked thousands of crime scenes, including kidnappings, homicides, suicides, robberies, burglaries, sexual assaults, and drug trafficking–related cases. Randy S. Taylor is currently the Chief of Police for the town of Clarkdale, Arizona. Prior to working for Clarkdale, he was the chief of police for a community in Kansas. These appointments followed his retirement from a career of police work in Colorado, marking over 38 years in law enforcement. His education consists of a bachelor’s of science degree in Criminal Justice, a master’s in business and a doctorate of management in organizational leadership. As an adjunct professor at Fort Hays State University the past three years, he has challenged students to evaluate the multifaceted philosophical challenges these sectors face in their application of ethics.
