NYPD sketch artist detective empowers victims, makes human connections

Of course it's new York city

Our police budget was cut drastically . Our sketch artist was replaced with Mr. Potato Head ! Times are tough!

Detective juan perez was the officer /artist tht drew my sketch of the perp after I was randomly followed on the street & then attacked when I started to walk down into the subway in midtown, manhattan 10+ yrs ago. They make you go through these boxes of old Polaroid pics & piece together similar features the perp had to the men in the pics. The walls in the office were covered with sketches perez did & 2 other artists there. It was interesting to see all the sketches. There was 1 officer there & she was somewhat new at the time & it was the 1st time they had a female in that dept doing sketches. They also had me go through all their mugshot pics & see if I recognized my attacker. Unfortunately, my detective never caught him, but to be honest, he barely put in any effort to try & catch the guy which wouldnt of been hard. The crime happened arnd 5:45am on a monday morning & the perp was an immigrant who most likely was heading home via the subway or passing by going to work at a restaurant or deli. He wasn't randomly there. Happened @the subway stop by bloomingdales. Its frustrating tht effort wasnt put into this case by the detective assigned to my case. I still have ptsd from the experience & dont like to go out @night, be alone in a cab @night, etc. I was covered from head to toe in bruises & cuts all over my face & body from fighting this guy off & he's likely still out there. He was so aggressive & I just felt that this wasn't his first time trying to assault a woman. I tell all woman; get pepper spray, carry a razor (i carry those razors tht women use to do their eyebrows) & always be aware of your surroundings.

Google Chris Hansen's mug shot — he writes rotten checks haha

Some people are much more then others…

A friend of mine could be hired as sketch artist ! He is fantastic !

What's up with these titles

how often is it that a soldier survives an ied blast without having an amputation of a limb? :0 mad respect to that guy

My son do the same and he is very good at it

Let's hope they actually use his sketches to solve crimes, unlike those poor girls murdered in Indiana that they're just now showing the suspect's original sketch, years too late

Fantastic work 👌🏼⭐️

Matthew Klein is really attractive.

First!!
