Hello!
Welcome to Forensic Junkie!
My Story
My name is Brandie Valeri and I am the owner and operator of Forensic Junkie. I am a Law Enforcement Officer and Crime Scene Investigator from Wisconsin. I have over 20 years employment in public safety. Although I've been privileged to hold many roles, my passion was always in forensics! I am a Certified Senior Crime Scene Analyst (CSCSA) through the International Association for Identification (IAI) and want to continue to support the growth of forensics and crime scene investigation in Wisconsin. I am an adjunct instructor at a local technical college and love sharing my knowledge of evidence with new crime scene investigators.
​
I plan to use this website to help further eduction within the field and assist crime scene investigators with obtaining certification through the IAI - so stay tuned for more content soon!
​
In addition to being a source of education and networking I'm so excited to offer law enforcement and forensics themed products. I am a self taught designer and I'm constantly learning. I have had the privilege to design patches and clothing for my prior department, and the number of agencies I work with keeps growing! If you're an agency looking for assistance with this, please don't hesitate to reach out! I've spent years crafting for myself, friends and family and I cannot wait to share my law enforcement and forensic specialty handmade items with you!
