The Key to Preventing Tragedy in Schools

As we mark the anniversary of the tragic school shooting at the Covenant School in Nashville, Tennessee, it serves as a somber reminder of the importance of school safety. In response to this, Covert Results, in collaboration with Defend Systems, has been actively working to equip school teachers with essential training on how to respond to active shooter situations. As we reflect on this past year, it's crucial for schools to prioritize safety training and take proactive measures to protect their students.

PI Rules and Regulations

For a lot of people, including many potential clients, the appeal of a private investigator is the idea that they somehow operate outside the constraints of the law. They think cops and detectives are all snarled up in constitutional restraints and department policy and that PIs can go to almost any length to crack cases where the police have their hands tied. The reality is more complicated. Covert Results has the experience and knowledge for the rules and regulations for being a PI.

Interning for Covert Results

As a kid, I had many different ideas of what I wanted to do when I grew up. Going through college, I discovered that I am interested in intelligence and security, but had no idea where to start. My name is Abbie, I will be a senior at the University of Mississippi, and this summer, I am interning with Covert Results. After searching for a Nashville security internship on Google, I found Covert Results and was immediately intrigued to learn about private investigation. I had heard about it before and was interested in the field, but I never fully understood just how much private investigators do. Today is only my third official day and I have already learned and experienced so much.

Importance of Armed Security

Armed security is more efficient than other conventional means of surveillance and protection. Private security guards do a job that is basic to the protection of our safety. However, crime has increasingly improved its means and methods of attacking targets beyond essential camera deterrence. Thus, armed security has become increasingly relevant. Covert Results has the necessary tools and training to handle armed security.

Better Background Checks

Things are starting to open back up. There will be new jobs, new opportunities and a chance for the economy to start to build back. New faces will start to appear in response to your job postings. The process for these applications will need to begin by assessing qualifications and seeing what type of person is in your office. Background checks should be done every time a new hire is considered. But, how are your background checks being administered? What information is truly being gathered by your system in place? Many people don’t put references down that would speak poorly of them, and former employers can only verify employment. What information is truly being gathered? Covert Results has done the research and has firsthand experience on how to administer a quality background check.

I know immediately there is a problem. No green means this is not heroin! Almost immediately my head begins to ring. It swiftly sets in, this is not heroin, it is something much worse; Fentanyl! My ears are ringing, tongue and fingers are numb, but I have on the gloves; nothing has touched my skin. I thought I was going to die!

I convinced him we knew he stole the money from the safe and even encouraged him to come to the precinct for an interview. After notifying precinct detectives, we drove to the precinct. The detectives allowed me to sit in on the interview. During the interview I played the “good cop, bad cop” where at one point I was yelling at him and another point I was sympathetic. When I took the; “You can catch more flies with honey than with vinegar” method, one of the detectives didn’t like my style.
