Female Atlanta Private Investigator Uses Bounty Hunting Skills to Help Attorneys and the Public

Atlanta, GA, November 29, 2010 --(PR.com)-- Traici Sexton, M.A. is not your typical private investigator. In addition to her work as a criminal defense investigator, this Atlanta area female private investigator has tracked down bail jumpers, lost loves, deadbeat dads, debtors, runaways, kidnap victims, fugitives and more. From high profile hard-skip fugitives to tenants who have skipped out on rent and defendants in civil cases, Traici gives each case special attention that only someone with her experience and expertise can. “I find people sometimes in the most unusual ways. It seems to be more like a sixth sense and something that cannot really be explained or taught,” Traici remarks.

After more than six years traveling throughout the United States tracking down and apprehending bail jumpers for Georgia bondsmen, and three years instructing bounty hunting classes for the Georgia Association of Professional Bondsman, Traici is now applying her skills to help attorneys, landlords, financial institutions, corporations, and the general public. The change has not affected her numbers: she maintains a higher than 95% success rate since 2003 and has a reputation for being able to find people when others have failed. “One of the attorneys I regularly do work for refers to me as the “clean-up crew”, Traici quips,“I often find myself cleaning-up after other investigators who were not able to complete the job… and that is how I get most of my referrals”.

Charges Dropped Against Craft Private Investigator

A Catoosa County judge has dropped the criminal case against a private investigator who worked for Tonya Craft.

Eric Echols was originally charged with three counts of influencing a witness after he was hired to do work for Craft on her child custody suit against her ex-husband.

Craft was acquitted on 22 counts of various child molestation charges in May.

The charges against Echols stem from an August 2009 conversation in the father of one of
Craft’s alleged victims said Echols threatened him. But a transcript of the recorded conversation between Echols and the father shows the men having a polite conversation.

Private Investigator Says He's Uncovered Other Leads In Marmolejo Case

EL PASO, Texas -- The court-appointed private investigator in David Marmolejo's case claims he uncovered more than three leads, that, if followed, may prove Marmolejo did not kill his mother, Gloria.

Gloria Marmolejo's body was found in the Santa Teresa Desert in the summer of 2009. Her face was buried in the sand, her head wrapped in plastic and her shirt pulled up.

For days before the gruesome discovery, her son, David Marmolejo, mourned his mother in front of relatives, and in a news conference with media, in which his family asked for assistance in finding her.

El Paso Police later charged him with murder, and in his first trial, prosecutors argued he killed his mother because she disapproved of his romantic relationship with his significantly younger stepsister, Mariah Wilson.

Wilson was granted immunity for her testimony in the case against Marmolejo. She told jurors she saw Marmolejo hide his mother's body in the desert and that he described to her how he killed Gloria.

Hawthorne Officials Mum on City Manager's Hiring of Private Investigator

Hawthorne residents who sought answers for why the city manager hired an unlicensed private investigator to nose around City Hall have been met with silence.

City Council members called Tuesday night for a closed-door meeting to discuss the issue, after residents asked for a public explanation for the secret investigation.

City Manager Jim Mitsch spent at least $8,000 in taxpayer funds last summer to hire unlicensed private investigator Edward Ortega to interview employees. But he has not explained why he hired the investigator or what exactly Ortega was tasked with uncovering.

"The council should do a thorough investigation of this matter," Olivia Valentine, a former City Council candidate, told the council on Tuesday. "The council promised the people transparency and should live up to its promise. The people have a right to know exactly what is going on."

Hit-mom Private Eye Got Tough-Guy Language From 'Sopranos'

A private detective - who yesterday testified in a Long Island courtroom that accused hit-mom Susan Williams asked him to find a hitman - said he got some of the tough-guy language he used with Williams from an episode of ``The Sopranos.’’

Joseph LaBella said that when Williams, 43, asked him in a Carle Place diner to find someone she could pay to injure or kill her estranged husband Peter Williams, he said he responded that someone could ``beat him up with a bat, a pipe’’ and put him into a coma ``sipping through a straw in a hospital bed.’’

Under cross-examination, defense lawyer John Carman asked the retired undercover cop if he had switched into his ``alter-ego as a street thug?’

Private Detective Tells You How to Stay Safe

The profession of private detective conjures up visions of cheating spouses, undercover stings and covert operations. Really, it's like every other job, but with a bit more excitement. I have been working the streets of Erie for the past 25 years in various public sector criminal justice jobs and recently struck out on my own, opening Rogan Investigations, a private detective agency based in Erie.

I've seen a lot in my years in this business and the lack of attention that others pay to their surroundings has always concerned me, particularly when it comes to women.

As women, we need to always be aware of the environment around us so we can respond and react appropriately. It's important to think before you leave your home, car, or office.
I can't tell you the number of women, and men for that matter, I have followed who have no idea that I am watching them. I must be a good private detective, right? Wrong, sort of. I am a good private detective, but the truth is that most people just don't think about their own personal safety and surroundings.

If I am watching you, who else is?

Now that we're entering the holiday season, women can be more distracted than ever.
