Certified Legal Investigators Discuss 'Suspicious Suicides'
Dean A. Beers, CLI and Don C. Johnson, CLI recent were guests on the radio show 'PIs Declassified', hosted by California private investigator Francie Koehler.  Investigators Dean Beers and Don Johnson have extensive individual and combined experience with investigating 'Equivocal Deaths' - those deaths which leave lingering uncertainty.

Suspicious Suicides 
There are few life events more painful and far-reaching than a suicide. A suicide not only brings suffering to loved ones, it brings shame and guilt to those with the closest contact to the victim. But . . . what if the suicide isn't a suicide? Can this same sad event be interpreted in another way? Can it be an accident?  Can it be a homicide? Who decides?  What factors are considered?  What are the pros and cons of either determination? Then there are the myths surrounding suicide that leave grieving family and friends with questions. These questions and more will be included in the discussion with seasoned private investigators Dean Beers and Don Johnson, both of whom have been involved in conducting investigations.

Dean A. Beers CLI, a private investigator and expert in criminal defense homicide and civil equivocal death investigations, is certified as a Medicolegal Death Investigator, has served as a forensic autopsy assistant, and has extensive background in medicolegal-forensic and factual investigations.
