NPS-CHDS master’s graduate Max Pfaffinger (MA1803/1804), Federal Air Marshal at Transportation Security Administration, discusses his thesis with fellow master’s student, Scott Fenton. Pfaffinger’s thesis focuses on the topic of gang violence from a Federal law enforcement perspective. By researching the gangs in Central America’s northern triangle (Guatemala, El Salvador, and Honduras), Pfaffinger is able to quantify the effect here in the US.
