VIRTUAL: A Whole of Society Response to Crime and Violence in Our Community

Location: Virtual Event - Zoom

Date: Thursday, June 18

Time: 4:00 PM ET

Cost: Free

Type: Open, Zoom Meeting.

Details: A candid presentation and conversation on how combatting violence and crime is at the core of our national security, and requires much more than community policing. Former FBI Agent and Senior Leader Rob Saale will discuss how his experience fighting gang violence and terrorism shaped his understanding of what is really required to build peace at home and abroad. In particular, Rob will outline why arrests alone do not lead to secure and stable communities and how fully funded and impactful community services are absolutely necessary for security.

Rob Saale is the founder and CEO of Star Consulting and Investigations LLC, an international security firm in Alexandria, VA with a broad reach that includes experienced professional resources spanning five continents. Rob has been called upon to consult with companies, law firms, and individuals regarding risk mitigation for organizations and individuals operating in, traveling to and living in high risk areas abroad.

Before establishing the Star Consulting and Investigations, Rob had a distinguished federal law enforcement career as an FBI Special Agent and executive leader. Most recently Rob served as the Director of the Hostage Recovery Fusion Cell, a U.S. Government Interagency organization directly responsible to the President of the United States for coordinating recovery efforts for U.S. hostages held abroad. Rob also served as Assistant Special Agent in Charge of one of the FBI’s top 13 US-based field offices where he successfully led numerous federal investigations resulting in hundreds of arrests, indictments, and convictions of violent and white-collar criminals, terror suspects, and fugitives from justice. As a field Agent, Rob was highly regarded receiving numerous awards for investigative excellence. Rob also served as an FBI SWAT commander, SWAT Team member, and was one of the original members of the FBI Director’s Protective Detail.
