My name is Anthony Griffith and I am a part-time Security &
Intelligence Studies major, Urban & Regional Affairs minor at GSPIA in my
third year. When I first enrolled at GSPIA, I had intentions of working
in local government, but as time passed and I took classes that covered a
global capacity, specifically those of Dr. Michael Kenney and Dr. Muge
Finkel, my interests had changed. Late in the spring semester, I changed
from an Urban & Regional Affairs major to Security & Intelligence
Studies.
I am currently employed at the Allegheny County Sheriff's Office
detailed to the Investigations Division as a civilian. My current duties
range from administrator of our reporting system, handling the Office's social
media platforms and assisting detectives in their pursuit of locating
wanted fugitives.
Upon graduating from GSPIA in spring 2017, I would like to pursue
a career in counter terrorism with either the CIA or FBI. Unfortunately,
being a part-time student does not leave much time for me to fit in an
internship. I discussed my dilemma with Sheriff Mullen and he explained
that I could do an internship with the ACSO, specific to the Investigations
Division with whom I work with on a daily basis.
Since beginning my internship at at the end of the spring
semester, I have had the opportunity to work with all three of the office's
fugitive squads (AM & PM Fugitive and Non-Support), as well as in
conjunction with our FBI-detailed deputies and their squads. We have
pursued fugitives of all sorts; including Megan's Law Violators, Firearm
Violators and Homicide suspects, to name a few.
