About Rob Baard
Rob Baard — Instructor
Rob Baard is a licensed private investigator who has worked both circumstantial investigations and surveillance. Long before he held a licence he was doing the work without the title: twenty-seven years managing cinemas, investigating complaints, identifying risk, writing hazard and injury reports, and taking statements while memory was still fresh. He is a 14th Degree Bujinkan Shihan who trained under Grandmaster Masaaki Hatsumi in Japan, and a filmmaker who has directed Danny Glover. The discipline never changed. Only the stakes did. This guide is the core of that discipline, made teachable.
The Complete Manual
The free guide gives you the three duties. The book gives you the whole trade: 42 chapters and five appendices. The foot and mobile follow, urban and rural observation posts, pretext and the legal line, interviewing, the camera, audio law, the running log and the surveillance report, OSINT, tracking and tracing, counter-surveillance, real court judgments where investigator evidence was admitted, excluded and contested, and the witness box. Worldwide in scope, and honest about the law: verify your local law before you act.
