Park Station Newsletter - September 21, 2018

Today I want to review again the importance of reporting crimes you witness or are a victim of. Reporting crimes is crucial in a number of ways.

#1 It is important that incidents are documented at the time of the incident. This ensures that the victim’s memory of the incident is fresh and thereby increases the chances of a more accurate and detailed report. (There are some exception to this i.e. when a person is a victim of a serious traumatizing experience their memory maybe better later.)

#2 It allows immediate follow up by the officers and immediate seizure of evidence that could be lost if there is a delay in reporting.

#3 It allows immediate further follow up by our investigative team on any potential leads.
