Edward Primeau, CCI, CFC, helps courts, law enforcement agencies and other interested organizations understand the science and technology of audio and video forensics. His forensic philosophy is that authentication and clarification of audio or video media combines art as well as science. The methods that he uses require attention to detail and scientific principles, complemented by an appreciation for clarity and aesthetics. Ed’s techniques are derived from both formal education and the application of skills gained by working in many forensic situations.

He also looks at forensics as an experimental science, because there are no two cases that are the same. As a forensic expert, he conducts experiments that include variables and that measure how each outcome pertains to the scientific aspect of the case at hand. The forensic processes that he uses to arrive at his opinions are accepted in the scientific community and are structured and methodological. He always takes scrupulous work product notes that are a part of each case.

When speaking, Ed will customize his talk based on the strongest interests of the group. The format can be a keynote presentation or a moderated talk, both which would include Q & A from the attendees.
