I had the local crime prevention office around some time ago. One of his
comments to be was that a picture showing someone doing the deed is often
enough for them to admit to it and there not needed as court evidence.

I've also found a company that does commercial remote cctv coverage using
Geo-Vision cards in PC's. These guys do it as a business, so I guess that
they use there stuff in court.
