Dr. John Tsukayama has been a recognized name in the professional investigative arena for over twenty years. He received his doctorate and master degrees from the University of St. Andrews for his research in the use of torture and other atrocities in counter-insurgency and counter-terrorism. He has long had an interest in the use of state power and what makes political violence attractive and viable. In addition to his scholarly pursuits, John spent twenty-six years as an investigator and became skilled at establishing a human-to-human rapport with criminal suspects, who almost always trusted him enough to confess their crimes. He's learned that even people who commit the most unimaginable acts, for the most part, live with regret and wish to be understood. He is also co-author of a highly regarded book on investigative concepts and techniques. John lives in Hawaii with his family where he teaches university classes in Political Science and Criminal Justice.
