There is someone who made teror in our office. He/she put a new lubricant condom on our female staff desk. Our security people could not handle this case, so we called a police to help us. The Police forensic could not find a fingerprint on the condom, because it was lubricated.
My question :
1.Any other approach to find a fingerprint on the condom ?...
2. I think DNA test is not a good idea, since the sample could be degraded/contaminated because the lubricant, false handling and time ( it happened a week ago). Any idea from you that I should consider to solve the case by identifying the suspect ?...
3.The police wants to make a public investigation, for my opinion this is not a good idea.
Sherlock, that is a pretty good story. Why would the police want to initiate, via time and money, an investigation into a condom being left on the desk (which you didnt say look like it had been used) therefore, why DNA. Then every male in the office would have to give samples. Give me a break.

tick
Thanks TICKLE, the condom look like as an used one ... but there was not any sperm or cement...only lubricant. Our security people send the condom to the forensic lab .... hope it would be a fingerprint there, but it did not work..as I explained before.
anyway..thanks for your attention and prompt reply
1. yes it could be fingerprinted, it would take a special crime lab with equipment but the lube on it, would work simular to oil and should have a fingerprint.
2. sorry story not believable, no police department would do anything but take notes, and I doubt would even file a report, since it was not a crime, work harrassment maybe.
even if fingerprinted, no way to match it to people working in the building, you can not force people to be printed to match
The company if they wanted to spend 1000' of dollars could send it to a lab at thier cost, but no police lab would even bother with this, and if for some reason they did, waiting time in most crime labs is 3 to 5 months for testing.
Anyone even close to real police would not beleive this
It seems that someone is bored today and thought they'd make
up a story for us.
Sadly, it's not only not believable but a waste of our time.
OP, we do this for free, in our spare time, and thanks to you, someone that actually has a problem is being overlooked as we spend time on the bull you're dishing.
Sad.
If you're going to lie then at least make it believable.

Thanks FR-Chuck, I appreciate your info. I would also thank to all of you who has submited the comment for the case. Just be honest, it s true. A 'maniac' put the condom and my boss lost his self control...and he very confidence to catch him/her. I understood that he angry..because this case is for the second time.
I would like to tell my boss....we just wasting money and time, but it is not a right time. Why we treat a work harrassment like a big crime....without any evidence we can not force people to confess. My boss is not stupid..but he lost his control...and someone should to tell him.
Once again, thanks for all of you and the case is closed now.
