Brad Schlerf is an American Army veteran, retired police detective, and author. The son of volunteer EMTs and firefighters, Brad began his public service at an early age by becoming a volunteer firefighter himself at age 14 and an EMT at 15. When he was 14, a friend’s father taught him to fly a glider plane, starting his interest in flying. He went on to join the US Army Aviation and served for eight years, going on assignments in places such as the border of East Germany and Czechoslovakia, state-side with the Big Red One and 1st Aviation Division, and Iraq and Kuwait in Operation Desert Storm. After returning from Desert Storm and serving as a quality control aircraft mechanic with Lockheed Martin, Brad took a position with the local police department in Junction City, Kansas. He worked cases involving everything from stolen bicycles to homicide, developed the Gang Intelligence Unit, and even acted as a liaison to the FBI to assist in the investigation of the Oklahoma City bombing of 1995. From there, he moved to the Manhattan Police Department in Riley County, Kansas, and after a few short years was promoted to detective. With the RCPD, Brad developed the Hi-Tech Crimes Investigation Unit shortly after the birth of the internet and, working with a team of nerds, lawyers, judges, white hat hackers, and officers, was involved in the initial stages of what is now Computer Forensics. His assignments spanned over all major crimes, and he served as a liaison to the DEA working narcotics, and on the JTTF (Joint Terrorism Task Force) after the events of September 11th, 2001. After retirement, Brad has gone on to continue in the roles for public service. He developed his own company, Forensic Solutions Inc. which has divisions that work in Computer Forensics, Voice Stress Analysis for Cold Case investigations, and data recovery for the everyday person. His investigations with FSI have been featured on 48 Hours, True Crime TV, A&E’s Dead Again, NBC, Discovery Channel’s Killing Fields, and several journals. Brad is the author of the Gotcha book series, a True Crime trilogy based on real homicides and Cold Cases that he helped solve during his career as a detective. Brad is married and the father of three beautiful children. Brad continues to hope this world will see past the issues of color and hate and realize we are all in this together as ONE race: Human.
