Success Stories
CPA and BKForensics assists working investigators in the field every day. Here are three recent examples
Orlando, FL PD: Examination of a cell phone produced picture of homicide weapon (gun) matching the weapon found near the crime scene. The case was several years old and no further information was available. The development of CPA allowed extraction of the image resulting in a conviction for homicide Philadelphia PD/SVU: Examination of a cell phone produced images resulting in an admission of sexual harassment, prior analysis had produced no useable results International: CPA has assisted in the interpretation of phone data related to a recent, well-publicized terrorist investigation in Europe

Conclusion
Without NIJ support we would be unable keep our software and training current; LEOs would not be able to recover data from the most modern devices It is necessary to identify cell phone forensics as a separate discipline from computer forensics Our Companys Goals
Support for state and local LEOs; offering tools and training that are applicable, affordable and current Accessible, ongoing support for investigators post-training
