because i m an aggressive guy. i didn t go in because i could get a gun and uniform. and go in there. i wanted to basically help people. he says that philosophy is now at the heart of his private investigations. but gil not only wanted to help people, he also wanted to teach them. he wanted them to benefit from his years in law enforcement. i have this idea that i wanted to teach the art of the investigation, how you do this. we all have to ask questions, yeah. you all want to know what s going on. so the seasoned detective turned his private investigation work into a course at westchester community college. i wanted to pick two real cases where i could get ideas from people who they can talk and do a little research and maybe give me ideas how to solve these cases. ann marie scivetti and kristine kupka, two missing people. when my sister s roommate called me and said that anna disappeared, i knew right away that she was murdered.
