STEVEN DAVID LAMPLEY

Law Enforcement Expert, Author, and International Lecturer

​

Steven David Lampley is a retired police officer and undercover SVU detective whose distinguished career spans over two decades of frontline law enforcement and investigative work. Throughout his career, Lampley has built a reputation for his expertise in homicide investigations, serial killer profiling, ballistics, human decomposition, and advanced interrogation techniques. His experience on the streets and in high-crime areas has given him a rare, firsthand understanding of human behavior, criminal psychology, and the intricacies of violent crime.

Lampley is widely recognized for his critical role in the negotiation and arrest of The Clairemont Killer, a case featured on America’s Most Wanted, as well as the apprehension of a fugitive on Canada’s Most Wanted. His investigative work has also earned him coverage by leading national publications, including The New York Times and The Los Angeles Times, as well as appearances on Investigation Discovery, TruTV, and other major media outlets.

​

​

Beyond the field, Lampley has shared his knowledge with audiences around the world. He frequently lectures at colleges, universities, and professional organizations on topics ranging from homicide investigation techniques and lie detection to behavioral analysis and forensic science. As a sought-after speaker, he combines real-world experience with cutting-edge research to provide audiences with insight into the criminal mind and investigative methodology.

In addition to his law enforcement and academic work, Lampley is a seasoned media personality. He hosted the critically acclaimed radio show Crime & Forensics on NBC News Affiliate KCAA in primetime in Los Angeles and on multiple stations nationwide, bringing expert analysis and practical investigative insight to a broad audience. His unique combination of street-hardened experience, investigative expertise, and media presence has made him one of the most respected voices in criminal justice today.

If you want, I can also create a more concise, high-impact version for the top of his website that immediately captures attention for visitors while keeping all of his major accomplishments. Do you want me to do that next?

What People

Saying

Steven does a masterful job of, not only taking us onto the beat and streets with him, but finding gems of life-truths that we can take away from his war stories.  May all of us learn them well.

He can take that information and relay it in a way anyone can understand.
