30 APRIL 2004 Police Crime Laboratory Director, and Former AFTE President, James Hamby, Fired Following Indianapolis Marion County Crime Lab Misconduct Investigations and Still an Active AFTE Member, Apparently Considered to be 'in Good Standing' ! Synopsis, Plus PDF Version of Special Prosecutor Report HERE UPDATE - October 2006 It Was Reported in the AFTE Journal Supplement (Vol 4, Iss 2, Oct 2006) that Jim Hamby Received the Calvin Goddard Award. This Award is Presented to One Individual, in Law Enforcement, Each Year - Someone Who Has "Demonstrated Excellence in the Field of Ballistics" The Award is Usually Presented at the AFTE Annual Convention. The News Report Did Not Stipulate the Award Success Criteria, Nor Who Nominated Jim Hamby, Nor Who Selected Him as the Winner For Someone to be Fired From a Senior Public Position, and Then Receive a Supposedly Prestigious Award Seems Odd Perhaps This Tells Us More About AFTE, Than it Does About Jim Hamby |
