Abstract
The purpose of this article is to present a case study of evidence failure in private investigations. Fraud

examiners, financial crime specialists and counter fraud specialists are in the business of private

internal investigations for their clients. If they detect evidence of serious financial crime, they are

expected to report their findings to the police. This article presents a case where private investigators

handed over their report to the police. The police prosecuted the suspect, but the court dismissed the

case. Later, the prosecuted suspect received a financial replacement, while at the same time

experiencing that his lifework had fallen in ruins. This article discusses potential causes of failures

during the course of seven years. The article is based on a contents analysis of court documents, media

reports as well as presence at court hearings. The article is limited by being a single case study, but it

does nevertheless have implications related to the role of private investigators and the relationship

between public and private investigators.
