Builds on: Electronic Evidence: Best Practices and Pitfalls
Custody Records and Evidence Storage
Readiness training. LEA.Training does not grant any official certificate, licence or authority.
A device is seized on Monday and shown in court two years later. In between, it passes through many hands. The court will ask: is this the same item, in the same state? Your records are the answer.
Focus: one item, one number, one unbroken record, from seizure to return. This unit is not legal advice, and your agency's own procedure comes first.
Learning objectives
- Fill in a custody record that a court can follow.
- Use labels, seals and a register so that a break shows.
- Name the controls a store room needs.
- Check and log a provider's reply, including one from abroad.
