Contact lists are a frequently overlooked source of evidence. Where associations between people are of concern, the contact list can provider a deeper understanding of those relationships.
What Kind of Evidence Can you Get from Contact Lists?
A contact list shows much more than just who someone once met or knew. For example, consider the following ways it could be used to provide greater context around a relationship or set of associations.
- When did they first meet?
- When did the relationship begin?
- How fast or slowly did the relationship develop?
- Was it tumultuous with frequently deleted and added contact information?
- Was the person listed in their business or social contacts?
- What other information did they include about the contact? Social media profiles? Business websites? Account numbers?
You might also consider the ways in which the above contact list evidence could be combined with other data points to go even further. For example, you could overlay GPS evidence to show where they first met.
