Successful domestic abuse conviction with SmartTag

DeterTech's innovative forensic marking technology, SmartTag, has helped to secure a successful domestic abuse conviction in West Yorkshire.

Gary Higgins, Director of Commercial Operations at DeterTech, commented: “I am proud to see our forensic marking technology making a real difference in protecting victims of domestic abuse. The words of the victim in this case, who has stated that having SmartTag made her feel protected and safer, are very rewarding to hear. We are working with police forces and other organisations to make this more available across the country.”

Following the success of West Yorkshire’s forensic marking initiative, DeterTech is keen to support other police services with trials of the deterrent strategy.
