Sentry Private Investigators had a bit of fun a few weeks ago when we engaged with one of the writers over at Bauer Media UK. They were keen to hear some of our stories to which we were more than happy to tell.
Of course we would never disclose names or specific locations to anyone beyond our agency, but we delved deep into what actually happened on a number of some of our most memorable private investigations in Birmingham and further afield. Without giving too much away, we also touched on some of our tactics and how we operate (nothing you can't Google anyway).
