Show Notes
Lieutenant Craig Shook, a forensic artist for the Alabama Law Enforcement Agency, uses his skills to turn witness memories into detailed sketches that aid in catching suspects, finding missing people, and identifying remains. His process involves creating composite sketches from witness selections and refining them with small details. He also specializes in age progressions and facial reconstructions from skeletal remains. Shooks human approach, which often leads to more open communication from victims and witnesses, has resulted in significant breakthroughs in cases, including capturing a fugitive after 37 years and extraditing another from Puerto Rico after 34 years. Despite the rise of digital tools and AI, Shooks hands-on method continues to deliver closure and justice.
