Armando Zatarain Speaks at Corona Del Mar High School

In November 2011, Armando Zatarain of Zatarain Private Investigations spoke to students about law enforcement, private investigation and digital privacy at Corona Del Mar High School in Orange County, California. The teacher wrote this comment to Zatarain Investigations of Newport Beach:

On behalf of the Corona del Mar High Students, Staff and Myself, we wish to express our heartfelt "thanks!"

Your presentation on November 7th was informative and educational. Some of the student comments included the following: "I didnt know how easy it could be to track someone down."

"Yeah. If you go on facebook people can find you." "Sometimes the WRONG people can find you- even people you never want to talk to again."

Your information impacted the students so much they were talking about your stories after you all left. To be honest, the adults were talking about changing habits at home! I took my facebook down. Again, thank-you for supporting our school and educating all of us regarding a fascinating career!
