Hello everyone



OH devices taken last year, no updates apart from saying devices have been outsourced. What does this mean? Is this a good thing or a bad thing or indifferent?



If someone can tell me what this means in more detail please reply

It most likely means the police have sent the device to seperate forensic lab for examination, rather than dealing with it themselves. It won't make a lot of difference.

Hi, my husband stuff was outsourced and the oic told us it has up to 500 days to be checked, it took just under that. It's because there's such a backlog there having to send it to a private company.

Hi everyone



So outsourcing devices to be checked isn't necessarily a bad thing or a good thing?

I would say it's a good thing and that they are trying to reduce the back log. We were over 3 years from knock to charging due to the immense back log of the whole system. I hope you get good news. X

my husbands stuff was outsourced and we got everything back and didn't have to pay anything!! That doesn't sound right that you had to pay. Was there anything found? My husband had nothing on any of his devices, not sure if that makes any difference to why you'd have to pay or not.



it's neither good or bad it just means the police are so busy they've had to get a private company to search them.
