Kim Anklin
...is a technical and strategic consultant for the Analytical Services Division. She holds a Master’s degree in Public Administration and a Bachelor of Science degree in Psychology, both from California Lutheran University.
Kim recently returned to the east coast from Ventura, California where she worked for the Ventura Police Department as a crime and intelligence analyst, GIS and computer systems trainer, grant writer, and lead liaison to other local, state and federal agencies. As the police department's civilian crime analyst, Kim’s primary responsibility was to analyze and disseminate information internally and with other law enforcement agencies. She converted various sources of data into useful information by detecting pattern recognition, identifying repeated core offenders, and correlating potential suspect data with current crime patterns. Once a pattern was established, she would then first look to known offenders that had similar past behaviors. This was done through databases she developed and maintained to search for possible suspects by physical characteristics, modus operandi of past crimes, criminal history, and other known information. Results were used to direct officers and investigators in the form of alerts, bulletins, and crime mapping.
Today, she works in partnership with all levels of government and private sector companies to provide innovative solutions to safety and security-related challenges. Both public and private sector organizations utilize her services including analyzing and disseminating intelligence, emergency response planning, crime prevention, competitive intelligence, various computer systems training and technical needs assessments.
Kim is a presenter and published author. Examples of her past accomplishments include the publication of “A Study on the Criminal Motivations of Sentenced Inmates”, a chapter in "Visions for Change: Crime & Justice in the Twenty-First Century, 2nd ed." The study analyzes the motivational and behavioral patterns of inmates convicted mostly of property crimes, who are now residing at the Todd Road Jail in Santa Paula, CA. Kim also assisted in the writing and publication of "What Price for Blood; Murder and Justice in Saudi Arabia, a case study that chronicled the arrest and trial of two British nurses accused of murdering an Australian colleague. It was a precedent-setting case that challenged the Saudi confessional justice process. Comparisons to Western murder cases and criminal justice systems were analyzed.
