The realm of criminal investigations is primarily with law enforcement agencies; however there are some noteworthy exceptions as performed by our private detective agency.

The Important Role of An Experienced Private Investigator In Criminal Cases

September 28th 2024 by Detective Robinson, Licensed Private Detective

The role of a private investigator is not limited to the function of “criminal defense” as is commonly portrayed and communicated by broadcast and Internet media.

While criminal defense investigations constitute the primary permissible case work for licensed private detectives, there are exceptions which include Criminal acts NOT pursued by law enforcement for a number of reasons. The commonality observed is they typically relate to criminal actions in which there is an extensive technology component or a technology crime.  Other criminal related investigations processed by our agency have included criminal defense, suspicious death and wrongful death investigations. This page will expand on technical related crimes.

CYBER, CELL PHONE AND RF COMMUNICATION CRIMINAL ACTIONS:

Criminal investigations conducted have related to alleged domestic disputes, online fraud and identity theft, online theft by deception and doxing of individuals and businesses. In some cases the perpetrator knows the individual and has the means and motive; in other cases, it is part of a broader victim demographic campaign by organized cyber criminals within the United States and Globally. Identification of which type of “bad actor” is targeting you is critical and where our expertise exceeds other investigative agencies.

Another growing area is hiring of cyber or tech “operatives” for purpose of targeted legal espionage. This includes infiltrating and accessing a plaintiff’s and their counsel’s emails, cloud storage, cell phones and computers. Observed case work includes matters relating to family law divorce and family trust disputes. “Operators” are typically European and Israeli.  The “best” as in most crafty cyber operatives are the Russians, Dutch and Israelis. Since the 2022 start of the Ukraine war, Russian operatives who once enjoyed widespread infiltration and high jacking of US small business telecom and data communication equipment have been rooted out and blocked for national security purposes. Instead Russian cyber criminal now operate from Eastern European countries especially Slovenia, Croatia and Romania.

Starting in 2022, our agency observed a new form of business cyber crime in the form of Internet search sabotage which we have labeled “black hat SEO.” This is when a competitor pays a cyber criminal or their SEO consultant without their knowledge employs technology interference techniques (hacking) to reduce a competitor’s search rankings by means typically not detected or acknowledged by big tech companies. In it’s most aggressive form, it also involves high jacking of the targeted competitor’s new sales calls, emails and web site traffic.

Another observation from field and cyber investigative security work is the use of Radio frequency “RF” jammers.  Radio frequency “RF” jammers take out the wireless security cameras and the organized criminal move in to steal high value business equipment and vehicles.  Radio frequency “RF” jammers can be purchased from Amazon for under a few hundred dollars and can be as small as wrist watch.

Today it is unfortunately commonplace that we Americans find ourselves dealing with perpetual unauthorized access and data dissemination of our personal protected information (PII), protected health information (PHI), and private financial records. How did we get here?

The lack of US consumer protection laws is due to the legal immunity enjoyed by big tech companies, credit bureaus, US Government Agencies and cell phone carriers. This has been a growing problem since 1996 with the passage of the US Telecommunications Act of 1996. Repealing “legal immunity” would greatly aid law enforcement effectiveness to what it was prior to 1996. It would also allow for civil investigations and litigation in which big tech companies, credit bureaus and cell phone carriers would be held accountable in Federal and state courts. This would provide the proper claims payouts proportionate to the damage caused to millions of Americans victimized by frequent hacking, loss of control of personal digital devices and nonstop data breaches.

We specialize in working with those representing themselves legally also known as “pro se.“ This means the accused has opted to not use a public defender or unable to afford a private attorney’s starting retainer typically between $10,000 to $20,000. Public Defender services are available for criminal court, contempt court, and juvenile courts and we have had offers for an opportunity to work with county offices which typically sub out the work to lesser qualified private detectives willing to work for $65 or less an hour which is nearly half of the average paid to an experienced private detective.
