This was an excellent class to attend as someone who lives and works in Texas. I know these criminal organizations are present in my community and this will help me see some of the signs I may have been missing. It has given me new tools and new ways to look at things to hopefully take my investigations to the next level.

10/10 recommended. Grew up with this culture and it has always been around me including in my town, my parents hometowns in Mexico. I have always been aware but not of the very fine little hints and details. This class opened up my eyes even more and I know it will to anybody else regardless of what they think they already know or don’t already know.

I very much enjoyed this class and would attend again if and when it comes back to Colorado to keep up with the information. I learned a lot and it has definitely helped me figure out what I want to do and accomplish while working for Arapahoe county besides just working patrol.
