Kershaw County Sheriff’s Office Sheriff Michael Burris Post Office Box 000 Any City, North Carolina 11111 Re: Expert Witness Services

North Carolina v. Smith 05CS9870938 Dear Sheriff Burris,

I am submitting my curriculum vitae for your review and consideration. I recently chose to end my employment with the State of North Carolina District Attorney's Office as the co-Founder and Director of the Crime Scene Reconstruction and Behavioral Analysis Program to pursue new opportunities in the private sector.

I have been a scholar-practitioner in the criminal justice and forensics field for approximately

eight years and have worked, consulted, or been involved in approximately 200 homicide cases. As one of the only Experts in Crime Scene Reconstruction and Bloodstain Pattern Analysis in North Carolina, I have vigorously worked on diverse law enforcement teams in the field, in the crime scene reconstruction lab, and in the court room to develop leads, process evidence, and solve murders. I am meticulous, but punctual; thus, recognizing every aspect of the importance of firm deadlines, allocation of resources, efficient use of time, and crosschecks each component of everything I build towards accuracy of quality assurance. Although I am an Expert specializing in Crime Scene Reconstruction specifically, my services extend into a vast array of other forensic areas as well. My network of colleagues is international and my immediate community is multi-continental. Additionally, I am the co-Inventor of Tubular Dowel Crime Scene Reconstruction, which is the most recent and most highly sophisticated Shooting Incident Reconstruction System available that combats the CSI Effect in the crime scene and in the courtroom to date.

It is important to mention that my doctoral dissertation, entitled, CRIME SCENE BEHAVIORS OF CRIME SCENE STAGERS, was the second empirical, factual, and credible study on crime scene staging in the world. The study yielded results that let to the development of the first theory of crime scene staging and the beginnings of the development of a multi-disciplinary, hybrid qualitative methodology that can be used by law enforcement towards the early detection of staged crime scenes.

I look forward to speaking with you about how my education, training, and experience

could enhance the forensic analysis of the evidence in State v. Smith and other cases handled by your agency. Respectfully Submitted,

Dr. Laura G. Pettler, Ph.D., C.S.C.S.A. CEO – Carolina Forensics, LLC
