It is my honor and privilege to have Forensic Anthropologist and #1 New York Times Bestselling Author, Dr. Kathy Reichs on the show.
For years Dr. Reichs consulted with the Office of the Chief Medical Examiner in North Carolina, and continues to do so in the province of Québec. Dr. Reichs has traveled to Rwanda to testify at the UN Tribunal on Genocide and helped exhume a mass grave in Guatemala. As part of her work at JPAC, she aided in the identification of war dead from World War II, Korea, and Southeast Asia. Dr. Reichs also assisted with identifying remains found at ground zero of the World Trade Center following the 9/11 terrorist attacks.

She served on the Board of Directors and as Vice President of both the American Academy of Forensic Sciences and the American Board of Forensic Anthropology and is currently a member of the National Police Service Advisory Council in Canada. She is a Professor in the Department of Anthropology at the University of North Carolina-Charlotte.
