DiscoveryBox…Discover the possibilities!
We developed the Instant ID™ Evidence Envelopes some 35 years ago. They instantly became a staple in most property rooms to store a variety of evidence. You could see what you’ve got by looking through the huge window in the front, and it was made from Kraft paper so the evidence was able to breathe (unlike an air-tight plastic bag.)
With typical handgun, knife or rifle boxes (which we make and carry) there is not the same need to be as concerned with biological putrification. But securing the evidence was. Within the container, we placed several holes like a pegboard so you could ratchet it down with tamper-resistant zip nylon ties.
Fast forward to today. Crime labs, property rooms and courtrooms are recommending that, like the Instant ID concept, you be able to see inside the box. Called the DiscoveryBox. With a huge crystal-clear “discovery” window right in front. The window can be “closed” with a flap when not in use. It makes it much more convenient and safer for the jury to review, examine and discover the evidence by looking through the window.
These are made by us…and they are incredibly popular, so plan ahead with ordering. Handgun size only at this point. Sold in bundles of 20. Special internet pricing at lynnpeavey.com.
Some tips for packaging. Secure UNLOADED weapons only. “Magazines” or “clips” should be removed. With revolvers, have the cylinders held open to show there are no bullets (with a nylon tie.) DO NOT put anything in the barrel. That could alter ballistics analysis. Seal all seams with Zipr-WeldMAX evidence tape and sign.
