A car key helps crack a criminal conspiracy to steal luxury car parts. Offenders use both sophisticated and low-tech methods to beat the car’s security systems and avoid detection. Also, a torch provides the proof needed to convict a man of violently assaulting a pensioner in a graveyard. A crucial lead comes from a public appeal and the release of a harrowing photo of the victim’s injuries.
