Harold Patin, the CEO of Global Safety Security Inc.

He then went on to the Bureau of Drug Abuse Control, which pursued stimulants and depressants as well as psychedelic drugs. In 1972, he was assigned to the office of Drug Abuse Law Enforcement (ODALE), under President Richard Nixon, and was commissioned as a Special Agent in Charge of the ODALE Task Force in New Orleans.
