The Importance of Secure Storage for Crucial Evidence
Here at Applied Technical Services, we believe that the collection, the storage, and the preservation of physical evidence is one of the most important parts of the litigation process. Everyone knows that compromised evidence is worthless in court, making the case vulnerable to cross-examination with a potential for the incorrect outcome. Before it is submitted to a jury or to a judge, the evidence will spend a good amount of time in a secured storage (hopefully), and as we all know, it is during this stage that the evidence may get compromised.
All evidence is different requiring different storage needs, that coupled with the absence of security against insensitive, uncaring handling or even malicious tampering is a catastrophe waiting to happen. Likewise, specific procedures must be taken into consideration for biological evidence, and the vulnerability for contamination relating to temperature, humidity or many other conditions. Because of the lengthy process that takes for litigation, temporary secured evidence storage locations should be able to deliver such elementary protections and be able to preserve the evidence unharmed. Applied Technical Services, Inc. offers appropriate evidence storage solutions for most needs in addition to many other forensic services.
