Why Spokeo for Law Enforcement?

Harness the Power of Social Media

Challenge: Existing tools often fail to link social media accounts with the target subject. Searching via Google and browsing social media sites directly are time-consuming activities that usually have little success.

Solution: Obtain deeper, more current, and actionable insights in less time. Spokeo automatically links relevant social media profiles to your target subject in one platform solution.

Uncover Personal and Contact Information of Subjects

Challenge: Subjects are relocating and changing their addresses, phone numbers, and where they work more frequently. Persons of interest may and can stay elusive in traditional data sources.

Solution: Uncover the most recent contact information via a curated database of open source and social media intelligence. Spokeo applies artificial intelligence and can recommend the best contact information for persons of interest.

Locate Assets, Places with Potential Evidence

Challenge: Traditional data providers often fail to establish links between persons of interest and the whereabouts of their assets and properties.

Solution: Identify the physical location of collateral/assets based upon address history, family/associate relationships, and recent social media activity. Locate places where evidence could be lawfully gathered with a warrant search.

Locate Suspects’ Vehicle(s)

Challenge: Traditional investigative methods often fall short in establishing precise locations of vehicles involved in criminal activities.

Solution: Identify the current location of the suspected vehicle based on the history of known addresses, relationships, and recent social media activities.

Identify and Locate Elusive Suspects

Challenge: Many suspects, especially those living unconventional lifestyles or off the grid, often elude detection in traditional law enforcement searches.

Solution: Locate these elusive individuals by leveraging our database that covers the entire US adult population and automatically connects associates, ensuring that even the most untraceable suspects can be found.

Align with the OSINT and SOCMINT Frameworks

Challenge: Maximizing the depth and breadth of investigations can be complex and time-consuming when relying solely on disparate open-source tools.

Solution: Expedite the investigation process and improve results by integrating with Spokeo. Delve into non-obvious and obscure relationships through linked listings and advanced search filters for fast and comprehensive results.

How Other Law Enforcement Professionals Use Spokeo

“I’ve been using Spokeo for years. It truly has been a success for both narcotics and gang cases that resulted in arrests and or convictions. Spokeo’s key benefits stem from their ability to tell me the connections between individuals with names, telephone numbers, addresses, and social media accounts. Because individuals brag about what they have done on social media, we use social media to gather evidence and to identify other associates that are involved, as well.”

Detective / Narcotics & Gangs,

Sheriff’s Department – Southeastern Region, US

“Spokeo has been instrumental in helping to work Amber Alert cases. Spokeo’s name search functionality reveals more than an address, such as social media profiles. We can use every profile’s unique username to cast a wider net for more thorough investigations. Within each social media profile, the geo-tagging drastically helps narrow down locating the child that is missing.”

Federal Fusion Center

Midwestern Region, US

“We work with controlled exports and focus on monitoring offshore items that may be intended for sales to be used to construct a weapon, including dual-use goods for explosive devices. Spokeo has been instrumental in identifying and connecting people and usernames of social media platforms. Searching just on usernames, we were able to identify and locate several suspicious targets within the US. As a result, we secured ongoing monitoring through FISA surveillance warrants to ensure national security.”

Special Agent

Department of Homeland Security, Pacific Northwest

“Monitoring extremist websites allows me to both identify and search social media usernames within Spokeo. The intelligence obtained, coupled with other information sources, has helped foil several planned hate crime attacks.”
