Ritchie Martinez, President of IALEIA, Is Presented With The LEIU Distinguished Service Award
This award is presented to the person who has shown a sustained contribution to the Association of Law Enforcement Intelligence Units and a continuous effort to enhance the professionalization of the criminal intelligence profession. Ritchie is a two-term President of IALEIA and has been a long time supporter of LEIU. In Ritchie's 1st term as IALEIA President , we hosted our 1st joint annual training conference in Washington D.C. (2004) and have had a successful partnership since that time. We also continue to engage IALEIA in other areas, such as our recent joint publication--Criminal Intelligence for the 21st Century and through our Foundations of Intelligence Analysis Training (FIAT) courses. Ritchie has been instrumental in supporting all of these endeavors.
The LEIU Executive Board took this opportunity to recognize Ritchie for his hard work, support to LEIU and the criminal intelligence community, and presented him with this award as a token of our esteem and appreciation.
