A suspect currently being held without bond at a downtown
Chicago’s Metropolitan Correctional Center on suspicion of robbing a bank found
out that when you take the cash in a sack you get something else that you do
not want, a GPS tracking device.
The device, which helped agents to locate the suspect after he allegedly made off
with roughly $400 from a Bank of America branch in Evanston, Illinois last
week, was included in the bag by the bank staff. The GPS tracker emitted a signal
precise enough that it allowed a team led by the FBI and the Evanston police
force to track him after he left the scene of the crime on foot. The device
tracked him all the way to Chicago before he was arrested.

Here’s another story about GPS tracker devices and solving crimes.
According to the New York Post a sting involving a GPS tracking unit has resulted in the exposure of a Diamond District mailman thief possibly responsible for multiple stolen packages containing jewelry over the last several months. The mailman was taken into custody and later released on bail.
The sting worked by placing a GPS tracker in a package designed to send an alert when opened. When the suspected mail carrier opened the package, which he thought contained diamonds, authorities were notified of his exact location.
GPS tracking of packages is not only for police stings. Businesses often use GPS tracking to track their deliveries and provide their customers with detailed delivery information. This results in improved customer relations.

Businesses and organizations of every type and size use GPS tracking systems everyday. Here are a few of the most common industries using GPS trackers to improve the way they do business.
Law Enforcement and Private Investigators: GPS tracking for law enforcement and private investigations provides a cost-effective method of vehicle tracking without the need for around-the-clock human surveilance. GPS tracking systems with motion sensors alert law enforcement officers and private investigators when a target vehicle moves. Using GPS tracking software, agencies have the capability to follow the tracked vehicle with great accuracy.
Construction Companies: With both heavy equipment, and expensive items such as air conditioners, appliances, and more at stake, construction companies use GPS tracking devices to protect the costly items they store on construction sites. GPS trackers can be placed on items such as dump trucks and bulldozers, as well as central air conditioning units and refrigerators. In the event of theft, these items are much more likely to be quickly recovered. In some cases, insurance companies offer premium discounts for items equipped with GPS.
Home Services: Business which provide in-home services, such as medical supply companies, contractors, plumbers, HVAC companies, and more often use GPS tracking devices for fleet tracking. With GPS tracking software, fleet managers have the ability to determine efficient routes, and know exactly where every vehicle is at any time of day.

According to the LaCrosse Tribune, a newly introduced Wisconsin bill is asking for GPS tracking devices for repeat offenders of protection orders issued through Wisconsin courts. The GPS tracking bill stems from “Cindy’s Law”, an Illinois law requiring GPS tracking of repeat violators of protective orders, which was named in tribute to a woman killed by her boyfriend three years ago.
Since Illinois enacted the GPS tracking legislation, other states have followed suit, including Minnesota and Indiana. If the bill passes in Wisconsin, the GPS tracking services would be funded by the offenders themselves through a $200 surcharge for every violator of a protective order.

Nineteen people in Detroit are suspects in a nationwide theft ring, partly attributed to the use of covert GPS tracking devices. According to police, the suspects targeted specific jewelry shops and watch stores, often asking to view high-end jewelry and watches before running out the door and jumping into a getaway car without paying for the merchandise.
The theft ring appears to have been somewhat sophisticated in that the stolen merchandise was often tossed into a second car shortly after the theft to prevent it from being found in the vehicle seen leaving the scene. With covert GPS tracking devices, officers were able to confirm the location of multiple cars in each operation, thereby linking the suspects to the stolen items. The case involves 19 Detroit individuals in robberies spanning 22 states over a five year timeframe.

Covert GPS Trackers are a Cost-Effective Tool for Law Enforcement
Covert GPS tracking for law enforcement and private investigators has proven time after time to be a money and time saver for police departments and private investigations companies around the world. This post will provide you with more information on how GPS tracking is a helpful, smart investment for law enforcement agencies.
How are Covert GPS Tracking Units Used by Law Enforcement and Private Investigators?
Perhaps the most common use for GPS trackers in law enforcement is covert vehicle tracking. This entails undetectably equipping a vehicle with a GPS tracking device. Often the vehicle belongs to a suspect in a crime, or is a bait vehicle designed to catch car thieves.
In addition, law enforcement agencies often use covert GPS tracking devices to track large shipments of electronics or other valuable items at risk for theft. With a small covert GPS tracker tucked into a single box within a shipment, authorities have the ability to track the shipment, and be aware of its location at all times.
How Covert Tracking Saves Money for Law Enforcement Agencies
The most significant fiscal advantage of covert GPS tracking for law enforcement is that it reduces the amount of human resources necessary to complete an operation. For example, officers may no longer be required to spend an entire shift “staking out” a vehicle to locate a suspect, or waiting on a car thief to to make his move on a bait car. Instead, officers are now able to increase patrol time, and meet other obligations, because they rely on covert GPS tracking systems and GPS tracking software to alert them only when the tracked vehicle changes locations. Then, using the software, officers can immediately begin tracking the location of the vehicle, its speed, and direction of travel.
