Private Investigation Services
When our company www.surelock.org was first started way back in the 1990’s by former highly respected and decorated senior detective Roy Herridge QPM, it was primarily a private detective company. Roy was awarded the Queens Police Medal for his outstanding service to the Capital.
When Roy Herridge retired from the Metropolitan Police in 1991 he possessed the most commendations for police work ever awarded to a UK police officer. The cases he handled were numerous and included the Ealing vicarage rape, the starving to death of four-year-old Heidi Koseda, the first black supergrass (Errol Walker), and Operation Shampoo - a drugs-ring case from which he was ordered to withdraw and about which he was very bitter.
These accounts of his experiences in the police were highlighter in his book “Believe No One”, shows not only the nuts and bolts of detective work, but also the use of new techniques such as DNA fingerprinting and psychological profiling.
We at Surelock have benefited so much from Roy’s guidance and continue to hold by these values instilled in our team to this day!
Roy’s immortal words the ABC are the foundations of any investigation and feature commonly in many detective programs on TV and Film: -
ACCEPT NOTHING
BELIEVE NO ONE
CONFIRM EVERYTHING
