Are you allowed/afforded any choice on what you investigate?
I've definitely got one that needs it...
Well, yes and no.
From a company perspective we only take cases where we know we can make a fair amount of money. I work for a consultancy, not an in-house unit. However, once we take on the case it is assigned to an investigators with the correct skill set, and it also depends on my current work load. I can volunteer for a case though and sometimes a client will ask for a specific investigator based on previous good work done.
Hope this answers your question?

What case do you have?
 
I worked with an attorney who loved the big reveal in court when the opposing side was trying to hide assets.
Yes? I can relate, you know what you know, and you have the evidence so you let them talk freely (we call it free narrative), and once they done explaining you ask questions in reverse, starting at the end of the story because you cannot lie in reverse. You can only lie and embellish a story from start to finish, not so much from the end to beginning. 😀
 
🤫 Don't tell anyone you have the copper... puts you high on the Copper Thieves List. We've had so many telephone poles and (mostly empty) homes damaged over the years by copper thieves.
We don't have copper pipe thefts at occupied residential properties...yet, mostly at empty properties but all our houses is brick and mortar so the pipes are embedded into the walls and plastered over.

Our big copper theft problem is underground copper power cables. They will open a manhole then cut the line, then hook that end on the tow bar of a truck and drive off, pulling hundreds of meters of power cables out.

Most cable manufacturers now print serial numbers on the casings to facilitate easy identification of stolen cables and so also link the thieves to the crime, or at least possession of stolen goods.
 
Every day should be hump day 😋
HDH approved!

Talking about accents and influences downstream, the Merriem-Webster dictionary I had as a kid had a pic of the states and little arrows showing dialects and accents. I think It’s still at my mother’s house. I’ll have to check when I get back home.

Early and good morning Spooners! Not quite the 4am club but close enough…

Easy enough day, I hope. WX report is humid but not oppressively hot in South FL. Everyone have a great day!

Happy Thursday!!! Came down with something flu-like yesterday. Basically, I feel like shit. So I scrambled to get someone to cover the job and I'm going home and going to bed. I would have left last night but that wasn't in the cards.


August flu. Who knew???
Hey Wat_Tyler, sorry to hear you are feeling like shit...but have to wonder, how do you know what shit feels like? (Just pulling your leg, tongue in cheek) 😉
