The British police were able to quickly find the perpetrators of the subway bombings months back by the use of cameras, and hidden cameras are playing a substantial role role in finding the mentally short changed bombers who were hard at work trying to kill large numbers of innocent people this a few months ago in London, and at other airports in the isles.

The British police are also very smart in refusing to let the press have any of the photos for publication. According to reports, one of the men arrested has ties to the subway bombing. It gives credence to the old "Scotland Yard always get their man," or men, in this case.

Hidden cameras, or surveillance systems, can be your best friend too, and unequivocally solve the problems of burglary and theft of what is near and dear to you.

Your typical "breaking-and-entering jokester" is certainly not going to be aware that there is a camera hidden in a tissue box which can be placed just about anywhere in your house.

He can even use the tissue to wipe his fingerprints down while he is on camera. That will certainly help convict him when the time comes to face

the judge and jury.

Another advantage is that the defense attorney will have an extremely hard time questioning the camera, because the camera doesn't lie. It just takes pictures, and doesn't have to process that information like a human brain. It just does what is supposed to do.

Conviction rates where surveillance cameras are used are much higher than in cases where eye witness testimony is used. Jurors don't have much reasonable doubt when they can watch someone stealing over and over.

The cameras really make a shambles of the "evil twin" defense, because it is very clear who committed the crime. You can even burn an extra copy for the crook, just so he'll have a record of his own stupidity.

Remember, if you're prepared, you won't be surprised.
