Private Detective in Brooklyn, Manhattan, New York City, NYC, and Surrounding Areas

Everyone would want to live in a society that is free of any sort of threats be it personal or treats to the society at large. At John Cutter Investigations’ our Executive Management Team is dedicated enough to make this community a better place to live. We are a private detective firm that is fully licensed to operate in four different US states. To be able to provide our customers with superior service, we have divided our service area amongst various decorated investigators as per their experience and knowledge.

Below we have mentioned a few common questions you should ask your private detective before hiring him. Take a look.

1. How quickly can you start on my case?

Usually, most private investigation officers will ask for a 24-hour notice to prepare for the case they will be investigating. But however, in certain cases, they can start their procedure within three hours if the case is an urgent one. As soon as they have collected all the information they need, the detectives will begin the actual investigation.

2. What is your confidentiality clause?

Almost all private detectives can vouch for the fact that any information that they come across during the investigation will be strictly kept confidential. Without the consent of the client, the investigator cannot share the crucial information, reports, or pieces of evidence even with the police.

3. How much do you charge for your services?

This is one service there a general estimate cannot be provided as the cost of the investigation is purely independent under the nature of the assignment. The price is fixed depending on the amount of time spent on the case, additional charges of surveillance, and a few other factors.

So, if you live in the regions of Bergen County, Brooklyn, Manhattan, New York City, NYC and want to hire a private detective, you can contact us.

Texas and Kentucky – The List Grows Longer

“Our thoughts and prayers go out to the victims and their families.”

The fact that those words now ring as a tired cliché highlights how horribly commonplace mass shootings have become in this country. In Kentucky, two young teenagers are dead and fourteen more injured because a disturbed student came to school with a firearm. The toll in Texas was only one student wounded, but again, the shooter was another student who decided a gun was an appropriate tool to settle a dispute.

Two school shootings in as many days – is this becoming the new normal? The continued standoff between those advocating for stronger gun control laws and the gun lobby shows little sign of abating, and the chance of Congress producing any meaningful change are presently minimal. As a former police officer, I respect the rights of law-abiding, sane citizens to own a firearm, but I do believe gun sales should be restricted from anyone who can’t prove those qualifications. It is currently easier to purchase a firearm than it is to buy an automobile, and I don’t think that’s an optimal arrangement.

Nevertheless, we have to deal with the situation as it exists currently. Our schools, hospitals, airports and other public spaces have all been subject to attack; exhaustive reviews of methods to tighten security are invariably conducted after each incident, new measures considered, evaluated and sometimes implemented. But despite all the reviews, all the new measures adopted, all the debate and all the thoughts and prayers, we continue to have incident after incident of mass shootings and school shootings.

My company has consulted on security for schools, hospitals, large corporations, and more. Our approach is holistic and comprehensive. We begin with an “All Hazards Assessment,” wherein we assess the effectiveness of the proposed countermeasure, whether that countermeasure is functioning as designed, whether proper procedures are being followed, and if there are any inherent weaknesses in the countermeasure that compromise its effectiveness. We will send individuals with diverse profiles to see if they can elude your existing security system and gain access to your space. We conduct tabletop exercises with you and your employees to further assess your security needs. We will then craft specific solutions that complement and enhance your existing security measures.

If you are in the process of relocating your company or are planning a new facility, that is an optimal time to bring us in for a safety assessment. Employing the principles espoused by DHS, we can help you design a building that can withstand almost anything. Safety does not depend solely on video cameras, barriers, or security guards. A successful security system must be transparent to your occupants, employees or clients while being apparent to any person or group with ill intent. We employ industry standards set by the Department of Homeland Security, the Anti-Terrorist and Force Protection, the Primer to Design Safe School Projects in Case of Terrorist Attacks and School Shootings, among others.

While it is true that it is impossible to mitigate every hazard risk, it is still possible to implement best practices to make your company, school or organization the safest environment possible.

John Cutter On WPIX 11 News: What To Do During An Active-Shooter Situation

Following the tragic shooting at a California bar that left 13 people dead, JCI President John Cutter went on WPIX 11 News to demonstrate the best things one can do if they find themselves in an active-shooter situation.

When asked what should be done in these situations, Cutter explains, “It’s called Run, Hide, and Fight.” In an active-shooter situation, it is advised that the first thing you should do is Run. If you can safely evacuate the building, do so as quickly as possible. If running is not an option, then look for a place to Hide. It’s important to lock and barricade the door of any room you’re taking cover in to impede the shooter from entering the room. In his interview with WPIX 11, Cutter notes that while taking cover under a desk may be a good place to remain unseen by the shooter, it would be difficult to fight from that position if the shooter does know that you’re there. Cutter asserted that a crucial aspect of being prepared in this situation is being prepared to Fight as a last resort. “If you can run, you run. If you can hide, you hide. If you can’t, you have to fight,” Cutter states.

It’s a grim prospect that average Americans need to be prepared in daily situations for an active shooter, but with information and safety preparedness, we have a better chance of exiting a dangerous situation like this unharmed. The NYPD also calls this the ABCs: Avoid, Barricade, Confront. For more information on the ABCs and to watch Cutter’s interview, visit WPIX 11 here.

Lone Wolf Attack

Considering the recent tragic events, John Cutter Investigations, Inc., (JCI) cannot stress enough, the importance of taking precautions when outside the safety of your home. Continuously, America is witnessing horrific attacks on “soft targets”: schools, houses of worship, retail locations, and movie theaters, have all become potential targets for the emotionally disturbed individual looking to instill fear as the new normal in a free society. While no level of security is 100% fail proof, and most security measures are cost-prohibitive, there are simple measures each individual can take in order to prevent becoming another victim of this rash of senseless violence.

  • Be aware of your surroundings, take notice of exits upon entering any locations you are not already familiar with.
  • Stay off of your cell phone, when walking through any public area, keep your phone in your pocket, remove all headphones.
  • Make sure your cell phone is sufficiently charged in case of emergency, and always call 911 after taking a safe position away from immediate danger.
  • Take notice of anything or anyone that does not look right: a man wearing a heavy coat in warm weather, a door propped open in a discreet manner. If you notice something, alert someone in a position of authority such as a store manager, security, or a police officer.
  • Explain the above precautions to children, keep children close, and don’t allow children younger than ten years old to wander off on their own.

All of the above tips are only a fraction of the precautions each of us can take in order to minimize our own risk. JCI is always available for a free consultation to any entity considering the installation of security measures in order to protect their customers, members of their congregation, or students. JCI’s management has specialized in providing Security Assessments and Security Services in the private sector for the past 15 years. The partners of our firm have provided Dignitary Protection with the highest levels of clearance while active within the NYPD and the Newark, NJ Police Department. JCI’s Management team has participated in and supervised very high profile events in both cities, such as 2004 New York Republican National Convention, Pope John Paul II visit to Newark, NJ (1995) and multiple United Nations General Assembly Sessions (UNGA).

Orlando: Cause and Effect

The most disturbing part of the Orlando mass shooting isn’t that it occurred, but that it continues to occur with increasing frequency, coupled with the reaction by the public and the politicians in the media. In general, the majority of people feel for the victims and their families. However, there are those who will use this tragedy as a tool to point fingers for political gain, or to further the fight against/for stricter gun control. The truth is that the system has failed not only the victims of the event, but the majority of people who want only to feel safe and secure in their everyday lives.

As a former police officer, I believe people who have a qualified reason to own a firearm and who can demonstrate a level of mental stability should be able to own a firearm. However, those same people should not be able to buy any type of firearm they choose. The idea that an assault rifle is something that anyone can own as a hobby, or as a tool for hunting is ludicrous. Unless you are currently in the military and serving in a hostile environment, or are a qualified law enforcement professional within a specialized unit dealing with high-threat situations, there is no need for anyone to own this type of firearm. The proverbial slogan “Guns don’t kill people, people kill people” that is trotted out every time the talk turns to banning these weapons is true. This refrain, however, if drawn out to its logical end, would be more complete if it went like this: “Guns don’t kill people, people kill people; but people with semi-automatic assault rifles can easily kill more people than those who only have access to firearms of lesser capacity.”

Obviously money plays a major role in why the Right to Bear Arms side pushes so hard to limit gun control. Selling firearms in the United States is a big business, just like cigarettes, alcohol, and gambling. All of which are currently legal activities, but all of which have been proven to cause harm to many people. Cigarettes cause cancer, alcohol causes cirrhosis of the liver, as well as other health problems, and gambling has torn families apart due to excess. The one thing they have in common is they all generate large sums of money for major corporations not only here in America, but around the world.

The other facet of their argument comes from a fear that if they were to acquiesce to stricter gun control on assault weapons, the opposing side would then continue the fight and look to go after all their guns. Looking at it from the other side, those who want stricter gun control (and to some extreme don’t want any weapons sold to ordinary people) is just as complex. They seem to believe that if all guns were taken away many of these tragic events would cease to occur. They are wrong, and the reason for their error is they want to blame the tool (assault weapons), not the real cause, which is mankind. People have been killing each other since the first man walked the earth. There are many reasons for this — wealth, power, territory, the list goes on and on. In most cases some of these are legitimized by society if they are done for what we as a whole consider appropriate reasons. This same thought process is used by the criminal element within our society as well. Drug or rival gangs kill their adversaries for many of the same reasons (wealth, power or territory) that we as a country go to war. However, these mass shootings do not fall into any of these categories.

Having been a police officer and a private investigator for close to forty years, I have seen my share of tragedy. I can say the number one reason for these mass shootings is not a belief in an ideology, or any other sane or rational reason. The truth is, it is mental illness. If you were to really think about it, would anyone in their right mind commit such a horrific act as what happened in Orlando, or Sandy Hook? We as a society always try to make sense out of things, it is no different during one of these mass shootings. We need to put things in a box that makes sense to us, and what makes us feel a little safer, even if it isn’t the truth. Having worked on crimes from homicide to acts of terrorism for a number of years I finally came to understand what the term “Ignorance is Bliss” really means. Most people would shutter themselves inside their homes if they knew some of what I and countless other law enforcement professionals know about society: that there are inherently evil people in this world, and those people will prey upon unsuspecting members of society for their own gain.

This is only magnified by the ability of terrorist organizations around the world who convince the otherwise disenfranchised members of our society, or those who do not fit within the norm to take up arms and commit these terrible acts. When we as a society understand that mental illness is not easily identified, and needs to be treated properly, we might be able to reduce the number of senseless tragedies that occur.
