Phone Pings And Evidence

Summary

Phone pings alone are generally insufficient for a criminal conviction; additional evidence is typically required. Chain of custody violations can lead to evidence suppression if it can be shown that the evidence was compromised. Courts assess the significance of the violation and its impact on the evidences reliability.
