Join the leading experts in the country from the Training Institute in Strangulation Prevention, a program of Alliance for HOPE International, in a dynamic, hands-on 3.5-day course on strangulation and suffocation murders. High Peak Camp near Estes Park, Colorado is the perfect location for this course from our nationally respected Institute. Evenings will be free for those wishing to go into nearby Estes Park or enjoy time at the Alliance’s retreat Center, H7 at Hope Mountain, just down the road from High Peak Camp.
Crime scene staging research has found that most offenders who stage crime scenes are male, most victims are female, and the most common victim-offender relationship involving staging is intimate partner relationships. Therefore, this course focuses on detecting staged crime scenes in intimate partner-related deaths.
Seasoned investigators, medical examiners, and prosecutors can be misdirected by killers and can close highly suspicious cases as accidents, suicides, or undetermined cause of death cases. This course will identify the primary mistakes made in staged crime scene cases and walk attendees through the pathway to build prosecutable homicide cases. Attendees will work on actual case and meet the surviving family members of the victims.
Registration will be limited and a formal application and screening process will be utilized to select participants. Double occupancy rooms are required. Once participants are accepted and registered, all registration fees will be non-refundable. No scholarships are available. Multi-disciplinary teams are encouraged (up to five members). Well-being and relationship building will also be a priority during this unique course with team activities, zip lining, miniature golf, hiking in Rocky Mountain National Park, disc golf, basketball, and game room activities available.
Applications will close September 5, 2025. Full registration fees must be paid within ten days of acceptance. Attendance is limited.
