I’m Dr. Richard Hough (pronounced Huff), a criminal justice consultant and trainer located in Florida. Since beginning my career as a police officer at the age of 19, I have gained thirty years’ experience as a practitioner, manager, educator, trainer, and author in a number of areas of law enforcement, corrections, and juvenile justice. This experience has come in increasingly responsible positions.  I also have 25 years’ experience teaching criminal justice and public administration courses in police academy, in-service, seminar, college, and university settings.
 
I have provided consultation and training on a wide variety of topics for law enforcement, social service, and non-profit agencies.  In addition, I have served as a subject matter expert and provided litigation support in use of force, police practices, and  corrections management cases.
 
I am in the minority of career criminal justice professionals who not only have worked extensively in the field but who also have a strong educational background to augment their work experiences.  If you are in need of the expertise of a criminal justice professional who has in-depth policy and practitioner experience in a number of settings, please feel free to contact me to discuss your individual needs.
