An instructor from a shady bounty hunting school took the stand Thursday in the kidnapping trial of the bouncer accused of murdering Imette St. Guillen.
Chester Pietrzak was the director of instructors at the U.S. Recovery Bureau when accused killer Darryl Littlejohn signed up for a three-day, $860 course in 2005, he said in Queens Supreme Court.
The school was shut down in July by the NYPD and Federal Protective Service, who charged that founders Ralph Rios and Robert Neves - an ex-NYPD detective - gave out police badges that looked too close to real law-enforcement gear.

Pietrzak, an ex-Marine and North Carolina cop, taught hand-to-hand combat, he said.
After completing the weekend class, students got a badge and ID, Pietrzak said. They could also buy handcuffs, batons and official-looking police gear, he said.
Students were supposed to get a background check, but of the school's 943 graduates, 78 were convicted felons, authorities said.
Pietrzak was shown a form signed by Littlejohn, but said he didn't remember the defendant.
"I don't remember all the students I have taught," he said.
Pietrzak's testimony could show jurors that Littlejohn liked to pose as a cop, bolstering earlier testimony by an alleged kidnapping victim.
Littlejohn bragged about being a U.S. Marshal during a conversation with St. Guillen at the Falls Bar, where the graduate student was last seen alive, police said.
Littlejohn faces rape and murder charges in the February 2006 attack.

** The originator of the USRB was a Nibe graduate and started this circus in Saddlebrook NJ as he was a bookread teacher with no hands on experience. This guy Chet was involved with him since the near beginning and I thought he was a partner and then more or less took over after the originator died young of cancer. About 5 years ago I took on a few cases that Chet couldn't accomplish and 1 inparticular that he screwed up big time as he was a heavy drinker and had 1 municipality out looking to arrest him for unorthodoxed and illegal methods that he used. I wondered where he dissappeared as being an originator of this scam.
