About HEAT
From 1985 through 2004, HEAT tips led to the recovery of $40 million in
stolen property and the prosecutions of 84 auto theft rings, 216 chop shops,
140 carjackings and 55 fraudulent car thefts, among other crimes. Rewards of
up to $10,000 are issued if a tip results in the arrest and binding over for
trial of a suspected theft ring or chop shop operators.

Pro Squared Inc is a subsidiary of The Project Group focused on
closed loop RFID solutions. "The adoption of these
new policies is an important first step by law enforcement agencies
nationwide, and will help the officers within those agencies to
determine when the use of these devices is appropriate in order to
limit excessive use and abuse of the technology as well as to promote
public trust," said Stethem. I also
believe that independent medical research and testing at all levels
should be continued on these devices in order to have them properly
assessed and standardized for public safety," continued Stethem.

In 2003, 53,307 vehicles were reported stolen in Michigan, compared with

"Although the placement of stun devices on the force continuum has
