California Association of Criminalists

In August of 1985, a motion was made to the Board of Directors by Steve Shaffer to establish a series of lectures which would be known as the Founder's Lecture. In October of that same year, the Founder's Lecture Committee was formed to facilitate and arrange the lectures. From 1988 to 2013, John DeHaan was the Committee Chair. The lectures take place every 18 months, so that they alternate between North and South.

Below, the video and/or the text of some of the lectures is available. Unfortunately, not all of the lectures are available. As more are acquired, they will be posted here. If you happen to know the whereabouts of any others, please contact the Webmasters so we can make them available.

All videos are also available on the CAC YouTube Channel
