As I sit in my hotel room I reflect on the past three days at the 16th Annual AntiCounterfeiting Fraud Conference and believe this could have been the best one yet. Great turnout, a lot of Canadian law enforcement, brand owners and even some colleagues in the private investigative profession as well. So enjoy today’s headlines as I pack my room, check out and skedaddle back to Texas.
