Moms As Private Investigators

Moms are their own private investigators.  God gave them the ability to sense when something is wrong.  They also have the ability to figure things out when no one else even suspects that something is going wrong.

When I was growing up, I always wondered how my Mom always knew what I had done.  I could never hide anything from her, and I'm sure that many of you know exactly what I mean.

When I had my own children, I always told them not to try to hide things from me, because God would always show me sooner or later.  It was so true, and I was often amazed at how He would do exactly that.



Mom, be your own private investigator

Speak Softly Someone May Be Listening

Did you know that the government recently passed the Communications Assistance for Law Enforcement Act (CALEA)?  Do you have any idea what this means?

In their own words this new law now requires that "telecommunication carriers and manufacturers of telecommunications equipment modify and design their equipment, facilities, and services to ensure that they have the necessary surveillance capabilities."  In common every day words, it simply means that this law makes it easier for law enforcement agencies to tap into your phone, internet connection, VOIP etc.

Undercover Investigation in Polk County, Florida Turns Up 41 Child Predators

June 17, 2013

During the past week private investigators have been conducting surveillance in Polk County, looking for online child predators.  Forty-one were arrested including one female.  The suspects answered ads from places such as Craigslist and Backpage and talked with investigators on social media sites.

Polk County Sheriff Grady Judd said that even though this private investigation is the tenth operation of its kind that has been carried out since 2006, and in spite of the fact that the arrests are broadcast through the media and suspects are placed under arrest, men and women continue to travel to Polk County, Florida, to have sex with a child.  He assured the people that private investigators will continue to hunt down and arrest those who come there for that purpose.
Theme park employees, a football coach for youth, an electrician and a law enforcement academy graduate were all a part of those caught in immorality this week.

Among the charges faced by the suspects are things such as unlawful use of a two-way communication device, attempted lewd batter, seduce/solicit/entice to commit a sexual act, drug possession, traveling to meet a minor and procuring a minor for prostitution among other things.

How to Hire a Private Investigator

Private investigators often work for individuals, insurance companies or attorneys in an effort to discover undercover secrets.  Most of them are professionals with a state license if it is required.  If you plan to hire a private investigator, he should have the experience necessary to do the job.  If necessary, you can also be your own private investigator with the proper private investigation equipment.

The necessary qualifications

In order to hire a private investigator, there are some things you should know.  If you’re state licenses private investigators, he should have a license.  He should also be licensed to carry a firearm if he carries one with him.  This person should be organized and know how to take detailed notes.

It is extremely important that he have a clean criminal record.  He should have experience testifying in court concerning his observations.  The most important thing is that he should be a person who is willing to work the hours necessary to solve your case.

Good questions to ask

Since some states do not license private investigators, you should ask the person you are considering hiring the following questions:


  • How long have you worked as a private investigator?
  • How did you become a private investigator?
  • What kind of experience do you have with cases like mine?
  • Are you bonded and insured in case something happens?
  • How can I be sure you will keep my case and the information involved confidential?
  • How much do you expect this case to cost me?

How much should you expect to pay

When hiring a private investigator, most of them ask for an up front fee to get started.  Find out if this fee is refundable.  Many times it is not.

Ask what things you will be billed for and have them listed with their rates.  Different private investigators have different rates.  Most charge between $50 and $85 an hour.  Cases generally require a minimum of five to twelve hours of work.

Talking to your private investigator

Make sure you tell your private investigator everything you can think of about your case.  Make sure to cover the who, what, where, when, how and why.  Your investigator should be asking you questions and showing an interest in the case.  Discuss the methods he plans to use to solve your case, and make sure you are both in agreement.

    North Carolina Bill SB648


    Senator Brent Jackson, a Republican from Autryville, North Carolina, has introduced a bill in North Carolina that would make it an offence to lie on a job application in order to be able to record information or to obtain documents from a business.  If this was done, those documents and recordings would have to be turned over to law enforcement within a 24 hour period.  The N.C. Chamber is backing bill SB648.

    Opposing the bill are dozens of organizations including the National Press Photographers Association.  Their reasons for opposing are as follows:

    • It abridges the First Amendment rights of citizens and journalists
    • The bill possibly violates North Carolina's shield law
    • It fails to allow reporters or others an opportunity to argue before a judge concerning whether or not the shield law applies.
    • Offenders would be fined $10,000 for the first offense and $50,000 for each offense that follows.

    This bill would effectively prohibit all private undercover investigations of businesses.

    What Would You Do?

    Susan Cox Powell and her two boys

    What would you do if your daughter had been missing for nearly four years, and now the police decide to stop searching for your daughter, because "they have run out of tips"?  However, your daughter is gone, your two grandsons are dead, your son-in-law is dead, his brother is dead and their father is in jail on pornography charges.  Susan Powell's father has decided to take things in his own hands by hiring a private investigator and starting his own private investigation.

    He and his private investigator will begin by searching along a 400 mile stretch of Interstate 84 that runs between Pendleton, Oregon and Tremonton, Utah.  After being interviewed by the police for the first time, Josh Powell rented a car on December 8, 2009.  When he returned the rental car on December 10, the odometer showed he had driven 807 miles.  During the time he was gone, he activated new cell phones in Tremonton, Utah.

    Susan's dad and the investigator will hand out flyers as they talk with local residents and law enforcement officers along the road.  They hope to find someone who remembers something about that fateful night when Susan disappeared in 2009.
