Good afternoon,
I am a freelance Chicago writer currently working on a novel that deals extensively with crime, and I am looking to interview someone with personal knowledge and experience as a detective. The specific aspects of law enforcement which I am currently researching include homicide investigation, crime scene analysis, and cold case investigation, as well as general ideas of what life is like for a homicide detective.
Another project I am working on deals with con men and illegal gambling, so I am also seeking information about common street cons and the prevalence of illegal gambling in the city.
I am hoping your organization would be able to connect me with a person or persons open to volunteering their time to share their particular experiences and outlook on these topics. Interviews will be conducted via email or over the phone.
Your help in this matter and service to our community is greatly appreciated. Please contact me by email with any information.
