This article explores how time synchronisation devices have captured criminals.

On occasion, we all need to know the time and we have a
multitude of different devices to tell us it, from our mobile phones and wrist
watches to the office wall clock or the chimes on the radio news. But how
accurate are all these clocks and does it matter if they are all telling
different times?

much. If the office wall clock is a faster than your wrist-watch your boss
probably won’t fire you for being a minute late but when it comes to solving
criminal cases, timing is everything!
