15. Summary:
• In order to bring your negligent security case to a successful
conclusion you must obtain honest and accurate data on the
actual foreseeable risk facing your client at the time of the
incident.
• If you depend on corporate “spin-meisters” and “DCRs” who
practice “willful ignorance” to provide you with the data you
require you will be surely disappointed. You need independent
and reliable sources to counter deceit and wide-spread
“spoliation of evidence.”
• An expert in crime, risk, and negligent security can greatly
assist you in getting the actual information you need to prove
your case.
