has been a criminal investigator with Federal Law Enforcement Agencies for over twenty-five years. He's had an interest in the paranormal since he was young. He's read and studied paranormal activity on his own for years. As his children are getting older and he has more time for personal endeavors, he decided to spend some time with ghost hunting. He would describe himself as a skeptic but open to all possibilities. As a career law enforcement officer, he looks at these investigations in the same manner that he looks at the investigations he conducts every day. He needs to do research, develop intelligence on the subject, collect evidence that will stand up, and come to logical conclusions based on that evidence. He looks forward to working with Stockyards Paranormal and hope that they can develop a reputation for professionalism and have some fun in the process.

has been interested in paranormal investigation for approximately six years. It all began when she accompanied her two younger sisters in exploring an abandoned cemetary off the beaten path in St. Mary's County, Maryland. The morning was chilly with a slight dampness in the air. Almost immediately, she felt drawn to an overgrown marker in the back of the property. As she bent over to clear away the vines, a wonderful smell of roses surrounded her. She looked up thinking one of her sisters had come upon her but both of them were on the other side of the cemetary, near their car. She was alone, or so to speak. The season was early winter in the north, so there were no blooming flowers anywhere to be found. She snapped a photo and when it turned out there were orbs surrounding the areas above the cluster of stones where the grave was. The brightest orb being over the stone that had drawn her attention, Mary Rose Turner. That day, she was approximately the age Turner was at the time of her death, as she stood staring open mouthed, trying to fathom what that wonderful smell and feeling was that was still with her. She has returned there as many times over the years as was possible and has had many more experiences to fuel her passion. Since moving to Texas, she has been obsessed with proving what, if anything, is out there. She has seen unbelievable things with her own eyes and it just makes her hungry for more. "I am very excited to be part of a team and able to use my knowledge and sensitivity to conduct research with my fellow investigators."

is somewhat of a skeptic. She tries to debunk everything unless it's backed with hard evidence. She has had some unexplainable experiences though. When she was 10 years old she was at her Grandma's house headed out the door to go play. As she was walking out the door she saw her Grandpa sitting in his chair drinking his coffee as he did everyday. She stepped out on the front step the door slammed behind her and realized what she had just saw. She ran back in the house and of course her Grandpa wasn't there, he had died just 3 days before. She was so young so she wasn't sure if she was just seeing something out of memory or if her Grandpa was there enjoying his coffee and his house being full of people and laughter. On another incident, when her son was 3 he was playing cars in the floor and talking to himself. He did this quite often as most kids do. This time she laughed and asked, "Who are you talking to?" He pointed to a picture on the wall and said, "That man up there." He was pointing at a picture of her Dad who died a year before he was born. She had never spoke to him about that picture or about her Dad for that matter. She didn't know how to respond to him so she didn't. She wishes now she had asked questions but was to shocked to respond. At that time her closest family member lived 7 hours away so she likes to think he was hanging around watching over them.

has been a student of parapsychology for many years. He has a background in the field of aviation and computer hardware/software support. He has traveled extensively over the years in support of this. So, he is able to call upon this technical experience during his work in the paranormal. He approaches the subject objectively, staying open to all data collected. He then submits what he believes are note worthy items for peer review. John is working on the development of techniques and equipment to aid Stockyards Paranormal Investigators with their research. “The paranormal field is gaining acceptance throughout the world. The truth is here; our task is to capture it.”
