These were people once

Human Trafficking is the fastest growing criminal activity run by organized crime syndicates. Human

These are horryfying crimes and the law enforcement colleagues that investigate these awful crime are heroes.

Trade in human remains is another terrible international crime that is difficult to even comprehend, but it is growing & needs to be addresses with force.

”These Were People Once” is a book about this absolutely horrifying criminal activity and how to investigate it.

The trafficking of human remains is an unusual and complex facet of heritage crime investigations. Author Damien Huffer has provided invaluable academic support to several of my investigations related to tribal skulls from Indonesia.

Damien Huffer also regularly provides HSI Agents with information regarding online trafficking trends in this illicit trade and has become a fixture in our network of “go to” academics. Huffer is an extraordinary example of the importance of law enforcement, especially HSI, working closely with academia in heritage crime investigations.
