Following the arrest of Bulmer police conducted a search of his property and found items such as a baton and information on surveillance techniques.
Bulmer was charged with the offence of stalking and pleaded guilty at York Magistrates’ Court.

It's just too easy to purchase a car tracker and put it on someones car. The selling of such equipment is not regulated and no proof has to disclosed as to the purchasers identity or purpose of use.
Therefore when we find trackers on a client's car, the Police are reluctant to get involved as the lines of enquiry required toe establish who has planted the tracker on the car is long winded and costly. Therefore unless the offence they are investigating is considered serious enough to warrant an investigation, no action will be taken.
