But experienced police officers
and investigators already know how to interview people, right? Maybe not...
Consider:
"I have
gone to about every interrogation school
around. They all kind of seemed like the same
old thing. I've been a cop, an investigator, a
Fish & Wildlife agent and a Probation Officer,
so I've been around awhile. The Focused
Interviewing System is the one method that
I've found that actually works in the real
world. Not only does it get results, but
people aren't pissed off at the end of the
interview."
"Great stuff!"

This skill
is so important in law enforcement that it should be
emphasized over all other areas of training.
Sadly,
most training academies and law enforcement agencies
can't afford to have high-priced interviewing training
programs, so they skimp in this critical area.
They are
making a big mistake.
Do you
feel like you could use more interviewing and
interrogation training? If so, read on...
Look how
the world has changed in recent years.
For
example, members of our military are now taking part in
interviewing suspects all over the world as a part of
our war against terrorism.
Now, more
than ever, we all need the skills at hand to effectively
interview people in the field.

"After reviewing your system, I find it exciting
that Focused Interviewing is being taught to
Patrol Officers. Too many times, this type of
program is only taught to detectives and
investigators. I wish other state POST Academies
would adopt this system. It is easy to use and
does not require a lot of memorization."

My name is
Chip Morgan and I interview and interrogate people for a
living.
After 30
years of conducting criminal interrogations, I've
learned a thing or two about this fascinating thing
called interviewing.
Believe me, in my early years, I made nearly every
mistake imaginable during the interviewing and
interrogation process.
Yet, I "hung in there" and kept refining my techniques
until one day I finally figured out the
key.
You have the opportunity to use my latest interviewing
and interrogation techniques without having to learn it
all by trial-and-error.
You
deserve to know how to easily conduct interviews,
without making my early mistakes.
I'm
talking about productive, satisfying interviews which
end up with you getting admissions and confessions by
the ton!
"I
began in law enforcement in 1984.
This is one of the most effective interview
techniques I have ever seen.
I have used Focused
interviewing for years and have been very
successful using this system.
Detective
Chip Morgan's style of instruction and his
ability to make the material fun and informative
makes this a "must have."
You will see your confession rate increase by
using this system of interviewing.
I think so
much of this style of interviewing I became a
instructor."

We'll get
back to that, but first, let me ask you something:
Have you ever been
unsure or hesitant when you started an
interview?
Don't feel
bad, in a particular situation, any of us may be
somewhat hesitant to confront a suspect in an interview.
First,
let's look at some reasons why you might be hesitant to
interview a suspect in the "real world":
-
Maybe
you have bad case facts.
-
Maybe
you have a partial suspect identification only.
-
Maybe
you have "weak" witnesses or victims to a crime.
-
Maybe
you aren't sure there even has been a crime.
-
Maybe
you've never had much success as an interviewer.
Whatever
the reason, sometimes you may not be 100% confident when
you are starting an interview.
That's not
your fault.
Part of
the problem is the interviewing and interrogation method
we were taught when we started in this business: it's
known as confrontational interviewing.
"Confrontational interviewing" where we aggressively
challenge a suspect (example: "John, I know you
did the burglary") is not possible in all situations.
The good news is: you don't have to directly challenge
anyone in an interview.
You will soon know how to walk into an interview (where
you are unsure of the case facts) with total confidence,
elicit all the information someone has about the crime
and secure admissions and confessions in a professional
manner.
What's more, it's easy, logical and requires no
memorization of "steps."
"As a female law enforcement officer, I
used to struggle with the thought of
interviewing someone.
I ordered Focused Interviewing and immediately
started using the techniques.
Very easy to use and it just makes sense. You
don't have to 'learn' anything, you just have
to pay attention to what you already know.
I encourage every woman in law enforcement
(and men, too) to get this info right now.
It's made me completely confidant to interview
anyone!"

The best approach to interviewing is completely
different than what you may have seen before.
Forget about "confrontational" style interviewing.
Non-confrontational interviewing is more productive, is
easier to learn and is more acceptable to the courts and
the public than confrontational style interviewing.
You see,
most people want to tell the truth,
at least on a subconscious level.
All you have to do is
figure out how to get them to tell you.

"This
needs to be taught to all our
officers, especially the
Probation &
Parole Officers."
David Nelsen
Deputy Administrator, Idaho Department of
Correction. |
To become
better interviewers, we must first become better
listeners.
What we
have to do (as interviewers) is to find hidden "keys" in
people's personalities which will allow us to "unlock
the truth."
You'll soon learn how to talk with anyone, put them at
ease, get to know what makes them "tick" and use that
information to discover the truth.
In order to gain the
truth, the people being interviewed must feel as though
the interviewer understands them and cares about them.
Once that happens, their
trust level escalates until they can't wait to confess.
Remember, to be an
effective interviewer doesn't just mean obtaining more
admissions and confessions (although you'll certainly do
that) but also means becoming a better listener for
victims and witnesses, too!
Frequently, practitioners of the Focused Interviewing
System enthusiastically say that they are getting more
detailed witness statements and more complete victim
statements by using this technique.
By employing the Focused
Interviewing System, it is not uncommon for people being
interviewed or even interrogated to feel
as though you are the only one who understands them; the
only one in the criminal justice system that cares about
them and the only one to whom they can relate.
It is very common using
this system to receive Postcards, "Thank You" letters
and phone calls from the very people you have
interviewed, even though some of them end up in prison
as a result of your interview!
Using the Focused Interviewing System, here's
what you'll be able to do:
-
avoid confrontations
-
easily obtain admissions and confessions
-
instantly diffuse anger and hostility
-
obtain better witness statements
-
get more detailed victim statements
-
understand the dynamics of the interviewing and
interrogation process
-
interact with people (including very mad people)
without getting complaints
-
learn how to
really listen to what someone's saying
You will soon know how to
become a better interviewer, getting confessions,
admissions and better witness statements almost
immediately.
Your
co-workers, judges, prosecutors, defense attorneys,
bosses and subordinates will soon be amazed at your
interviewing ability!
Absolutely no other method currently offered deals with
the subject of interviewing from this angle.
The
Focused Interviewing System is easy to learn, easy to
use and works very, very well.
That's
right... you can easily interview anyone and get more
confessions.
In
addition, you'll learn the best techniques for
interviewing witnesses and victims, too!

I'm not
talking about a steep learning curve here.
If you
download this material, you can start using this system
today!
The
Focused Interviewing method is a very simple,
step-by-step process that makes total common sense.
Once you
start interviewing this way, you'll wonder why you
didn't do this all along!
The real
beauty of The Focused Interviewing System lies in it's
flexibility and adaptability, enabling you to
successfully interview people in any situation.
There's
nothing to memorize, no mandatory progression in the
technique from one level to another.
You've seen some interview courses where the students
get laminated cards (cheat sheets) to carry with them at
the end of the seminar.
Believe me, if
you have to consult a cheat sheet during an interview,
you've already lost the contest.... :)

meals and lodging, it all gets expensive to attend
traditional interview and interrogation training
classes.
