Dr. Ron Martinelli CEO and Founder, Martinelli & Associates

Dr. Ron Martinelli, Ph.D., CMI-V, founded Martinelli & Associates, Justice & Forensic Consultants, LLC in 1980 after recognizing the need in the law enforcement, forensic and legal communities for more “reality and scientific-based”, non-compartmentalized investigative analysis. He is considered by many in the industry as the creator of the “multi-disciplinary forensic investigations model” for analyzing and evaluating complex, high-profile criminal and civil incidents involving death and serious injuries within the law enforcement and corporate communities.

Dr. Martinelli is a federal and state courts qualified expert in law enforcement, forensics, premises liability and security practices. He is the only law enforcement expert in the nation who is also a Certified Medical Investigator. He directs the nation’s only multi-disciplinary Forensic Death Investigations Team of over twenty law enforcement, forensic, medical and security experts.
