He serves as the vehicle forensics expert for the Office of the United States Attorney and F.B.I. out of the Washington D.C., field office and is the retained leading expert nationally for high-profile criminal cases inclusive of felony murder. Chase also has served as the F.B.I. vehicle forensics expert for three murder trials out of Baghdad, Iraq.
“Given my truly unique fields of professional expertise and experience, I am excited to provide a critically new realm to the Global Brake Safety Council. Indeed, I assess the firsthand, real-world results of deficient brake system components of which innocent people are seriously or fatally injured.
