Victor put on an amazing class. An extreme amount of knowledge and tools were provided. The hands-on was a great way to identify and decipher the items of interest for different scenarios.

This class was unlike any other class I’ve taken. I’ve learned so much in these four days and have added so many tools to my tool belt. I HIGHLY recommend this class to anyone- whether you’re a new cop, veteran cop, detective, any type of law enforcement. Victor knows his stuff and is legit. I plan to continue coming to his future classes when possible. Thanks Victor for sharing your knowledge. Stay safe. Please sell T-Shirts Vic!

This class was nothing what I expected. I thought it was going to be just a basic class about the “cartel”. After being in this class that is not the case I learned something new every second I was in this class that I will now have in my toolbox.
