Phil Chalmers
MT. VERNON, Ill. - Members of law enforcement from all over the state gathered in Mt. Vernon, Illinois, Thursday, August 9, to hear Phil Chalmers, homicide trainer, true crime writer and television personality, give a riveting presentation.
The subject “Why Teens Kill" is an in-depth presentation complete with real crime scene photos. Chalmers is an expert, having interviewed and corresponded with several murderers and serial killers - including school shooters.
He says "If you don’t put police in school, they won’t be the first responders."
Various apps were mentioned, with the focus on tracking and monitoring your children without their knowledge.
Here are some pics of those at the event.

Not pictured was Creal Springs Police Officer Tony Kendrick, whom I wish to thank for recommending this course to me. I did, however, get a pic of myself with Chalmers.
