New evidence uncovered related to high-profile home invasion

Boothroyds organised a trailer to advertise a reward after a home invasionBoothroyds is working towards the recovery of family jewellery after a high-profile home invasion in Bothwell, Scotland.

The burglary took place on a Sunday afternoon while the family were on holiday.  On their return the family discovered high value jewellery and watches had been stolen.  But more importantly, items of sentimental value had also been taken.

Boothroyds initiated a two prong approach.  Firstly they hired an advertising trailer to raise awareness of the break-in and the accompanying reward for information leading to the recovery of the stolen items.  The trailer was placed strategically throughout the local and wider community.

The Boothroyd detectives, who are ex-police detectives, also found witnesses that the current police investigation had overlooked as well uncovering further evidence from the crime scene for submission for forensic examination.

£10K of stolen jewellery recovered

Private investigation leads to recovery of stolen jewellery

A client contacted us because her wedding jewellery had been stolen.  The jewellery was valued at in excess of £10,000 but the sentimental value to our client was far greater because the jewellery had been passed down through the family generations.

Our client had a suspicion regarding how her jewellery had been stolen but was unable to take any action, hence she called us.  Working on the basis of her suspicion and employing a combination of hidden cameras and in-person surveillance we were able to recover the stolen jewels.

When pressed, the panic button sends an alarm to the investigator on duty at the time.  The investigator makes immediate contact with the client and depending on a number of pre-agreed responses, takes appropriate action to ensure her safety.

My cheating spouse confirmed

Do you suspect your spouse of cheating?

As private investigators we’re asked to conduct matrimonial investigations on an almost daily basis.

We understand you’re facing a painful and distressing situation.  Our experienced team handle all requests with sensitivity and discretion.

The client below made the very difficult decision to contact us after reading a suspicious text on her husband’s phone.  In her own words and reprinted with permission, our client provided the following testimonial.

“After the painful discovery of a text on my Husband’s phone and realising the possibility that my Husband was conducting a secret affair, I considered engaging the services of an Investigation Company. The daunting prospect of this was overwhelming, as the outcome may not be what I wanted to hear. Coupled with the anxiety of who do you contact and how, and if you do, it also exposes your cherished private life to a stranger. However I could not ignore what I had discovered and made the decision to engage a company to assist me in discovering the truth.

The truth was not good, however the professional, sensitive and expedient manner in which Boothroyds conducted their enquiries, the informative presentation of their results both verbally and in writing made the whole process as painless as it could be.

My complicated circumstances required the use of their services over a lengthy period of time. Boothroyds during this process were engaged by my solicitors for legal reasons, during the course of this lengthy procedure they were never at any time detected, which is a testament once again to their knowledge of their field. Probably the longest undetected surveillance operation conducted on behalf of an individual.

It is without hesitation that I commend Boothroyds for their professionalism, integrity and humanity during the most upsetting and stressful time. Furthermore their compassion, care and empathic manner is something I will never forget.”
