    Richard and others,

    Dave is right on. A few years ago, my nephew wanted to go into forensics as
    well. He got into an OJT program through school, voluntering at first, then
    taking on a grant-funded part-time position that has helped him in college.
    As Dave says, they're swamped. I'd add that it's a great networking
    opportunity.

    Good luck and let us know how thing go, if you choose that route.
