TOPIC: Financial Crime Investigation -  SoCal: Bank Dicks in Action

SPEAKER:  R. Stephen Peel, CFE

SPEAKER BIO: R. Stephen Peel, CFE, has been investigating fraud in various arenas
since 1982.  He is currently a Financial Crime Investigator for Wells Fargo Bank in the
Los Angeles and Inland Empire areas and is an active member in the Los Angeles
Chapter of the ACFE.

DESCRIPTION OF SPEECH:
With his wry sense of humor & wit, Stephen jokingly said that his speech could be
subtitled 'Black Bart and the New Millennium'.  But if we think back to the classic bank
robbing lessons in '
Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid' these quotes may give us
an inkling of what he may be covering re: current state-of-the-art bank investigation
methodology.
