John Callicutt carries a gun. He hopes he never has to use it.

It’s always a possibility, though, for a private investigator whose firm spends a lot of time on domestic cases. You never know what a cheating husband will do if he figures out he’s being tailed.

The world was a very different place in 1849 when Henry David Thoreau exclaimed – admittedly in a broader context – that “[the] process of discovery is very simple.” Today discovery is anything but – especially with a digital revolution on our hands.

John Nazarian shares Pellicano’s profession, but his reputation is cleaner. Even if he does dig for DNA in rich people’s trash.

It’s 10 p.m., and John Nazarian, a burly 53-year-old private eye, is hurtling around Beverly Hills in his immaculate red Scion looking for garbage. Nazarian treats trash as his private archeological site, the detritus of human existence that exposes all our hidden vulnerabilities — financial documents, prescription bottles, booze bottles and anything, anything, that might sport DNA.

Winston Stewart graduated from the Law Enforcement program at Seneca College and went right back to his high school job.
Except this time, instead of just working security at the local mall, his own newly-formed company — Winston Security and Investigative Services — was in charge of security for the local mall. “That was pretty cool,” he says of his firm’s first contract.

As a student starting out in the Law Enforcement program, Stewart was intent on becoming a police officer, but in his second year, he discovered all that the private sector of law enforcement had to offer.

When Pail Gaffney vanished after leaving his Derry home for work in Massachusetts last month, there was no sign of foul play, no indication of an accident.Derry police filed a report, followed up on leads gathered from interviews with friends and family of the 43-year-old, and put out a statewide “attempt to locate” bulletin.

Gaffney’s wife and six children were waiting and worrying. The disappearance was out of character, they said, for a man “you could set your watch by.”

The following 10 questions will guide your exploration of the circumstances of the infidelity and the meaning behind it. Discussing them will give you the raw material from which to co-construct your story.

1. What did you say to yourself that gave you permission to get involved?

There are all kinds of reasons for not stepping over the line that would normally stop you from entering a forbidden territory. Vulnerabilities and values will be revealed by the thoughts and actions that came up as you crossed thresholds into the extramarital relationship. One of the most revealing thoughts is whether the unfaithful partner considered the consequences of getting involved or only of getting caught. When you do, it’s important that you talk about what happen, each taking a vow not to let the circumstances repeat it self.

Who falls for this stuff?

Who’s so greedy or naive to get suckered by those Nigerian scams that litter inboxes and spam filters with rubbish so clearly a ruse you’d have to be a knucklehead or on drugs not to just delete ‘em?

That’s the question people ask. Readers raise it all the time. Whenever the column or talk turns to swindles and the Nigerian e-mail nonsense in particular, they want to know: Who could possibly fall for this?

You might be surprised.

If a child disappears, his eyes can help identify him. The Weber County Sheriff’s Office has access to new technology, that may help find missing children, using iris recognition technology. Our eyes are the most unique features on our body and can more accurately identify us than our fingerprint.

Zax Anderson and his seven-year old sister know all about stranger danger. Their father is in law enforcement.
