Witness to Murder: Digital Evidence reveals how technology has become the new frontier in solving homicides.

It showcases crimes that were solved using email records, cell phone pings, social media, etc. It’s interesting to see just how much information law enforcement can get.

They talk about it so casually, too. 😂

From a privacy perspective, it does give a lot of food for thought.

    This sounds great;

    Reveals how technology has become the new frontier in solving homicides, illustrating the surprising ways that cell phone data, smart watches, fitness trackers, GPS devices, geolocation coordinates, doorbell and traffic cameras, gaming devices, surveillance video, internet searches, apps, and social media messages can be the critical clues in murder investigations.

    Okay, some of it might be fear mongering and I’m sure someone will say it is teaching people how to get away with crime… But it sounds like a neat show.

      Nah, I think it’s the opposite. If criminals know there’s literally nothing they can do to get away with a crime (i.e they don’t have control over EVERY device around them), it might even be a deterrent. That’s assuming criminals are complete idiots, though. LOL

        well carrying a mobile tracker that pings your body disposal route isnt exactly something a smart person would do
