...either by the company or out of government funds. Windows and street furniture in the area are then plastered with the SmartWater logo and the local media are roped in to help wage psychological warfare on local villains - typically, police will rig out a bait car with a spray to secure a headline conviction and make it known they will routinely scan suspects arrested for any reason. Last December, police in Peterborough sent greeting cards to convicted thieves to let them know that their next crime could leave them "glowing like a Christmas tree...
