Led by Experience. Driven by Justice.
MCR Investigations is led by Michael “Mike” Rood, a 27-year police veteran whose investigative background includes fraud, homicide, and robbery casework.
Mike brings law enforcement discipline, structured case analysis, and professional discretion to private investigation. Whether the matter involves criminal defense support, a family concern, surveillance, or a complex civil issue, MCR applies the same rigorous standards used in major felony investigations.

Background in fraud, homicide, and robbery investigations.
Licensed private investigator and qualified manager since 2022.
From major casework to private investigation.
Mike’s transition from law enforcement to private investigation reflects a continued commitment to truth, accountability, and client-focused service. His background includes investigative work in fraud, homicide, robbery, personnel matters, and Internal Affairs-related investigations.
That experience informs a disciplined approach to evidence review, witness development, conflict resolution, and case strategy. Clients benefit from an investigator who understands both the practical demands of fieldwork and the importance of clear, defensible documentation.
Committed to growth, discipline, and investigative precision.
As an Executive Protection Specialist, Licensed Private Investigator, and Qualified Manager, Mike has continued building on his investigative foundation with a focus on private-sector casework, personal protection, and legally sound information gathering.
His expertise includes problem-solving, conflict resolution, background investigations, personnel issues, and Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design (CPTED) evaluation. This range of experience supports both high-stakes legal matters and highly personal client concerns.
