Metropolitan Police Commissioner Sir Paul Stephenson visited Haringey borough's patrol base in Wood Green yesterday to talk to some of the officers and staff that provide a service to the people of Haringey.

One of the reasons for the Commissioner's visit was to recognise the work of Assistant Forensic Practitioner Cass Paton who is one of a team on the borough responsible for finding forensic crime scene evidence.

Cass has recently been recognised with a Borough Commander Commendation. In addition to her local work, she made a big difference to the lives of many families in the aftermath of the 2004 Tsunami in Asia, working seven days a week as part of the team involved in identifying victims through DNA and bringing a sense of closure for many families that she never even got to meet.
