Mobile Phones always seem to be a prime target for crooks. However there is a serial number on the phone that will make them useless. You must retrieve this number yourself and store it and in the unlucky event that your phone is lost or stolen give this number to your phone provider and they can turn the phone off, making it useless to the offenders.
To get this number press ‘STAR HASH 0 6 HASH’ and it will appear.

As a wildlife officer I receive information about wildlife offences that have taken place in other police forces. I believe the following will show you how fast DNA is becoming a useful tool in our arsenal against all crime. A rural police officer received a call from a local farmer, he had found a badger set dug up on his land and there was a dead badger near-by. The police attended and found an empty drink tin at the scene. The tin was sent to a forensic department and a DNA match from it that indicated a male who had been dealt with for shoplifting a year earlier. The policeman went and found him, and the fellow ended up in court and was convicted of the offence. A good result.
