We need to enhance a store video of an aggravated robbery so that we can hopefully get more detail re the crook's face. We've tried the AVID program without any improvement. Can anyone recommend someone in this area of expertise?

This guy (CV below) gave a CLE lecture last year at the Tarrant County D.A.'s office. The part of his talk that I was able to hear seemed excellent. I'm sure he could either help you or point you in the right direction.

Jonathan W. Hak is a Crown Prosecutor employed by Alberta Justice in Calgary, Alberta. He primarily prosecutes major crimes and specializes in forensic video analysis. He is also an instructor in Forensic Video Analysis and the Law for LEVA and has instructed in this field at the FBI Academy in Quantico, Virginia and the Los Angeles Sheriffs Academy in California. He received his legal education in the United States, Canada and England.

I put his phone number and e-mail in a private topic if you're interested.

Mike,

Give Gene Henderson a call at the DPS crime lab in Austin, Texas. The main # is 512-424-2000. Ask for the photo section of the crime lab.

Thanks for the info!

Mike, we have used HPD with some success. The FBI may also be willing to assist if DPS is unable to assist. Feel free to call me if I can assist you. I still owe you one.
