Dear Officer [Name] / To Whom It May Concern,
I am writing to bring to your attention a matter of concern involving inappropriate content that I have seen on [Individual’s Full Name]’s mobile phone.
On or around [date], I observed [briefly state how you came across it — for example: “while using the phone with their permission,” “while the phone was left unlocked,” etc.].
During this time, I became aware of [brief description: e.g., “sexually explicit images,” “images depicting potential abuse,” “images that appeared to involve minors,” or “images that were degrading or violent in nature”].
Given the serious nature of this material, I felt it was my moral and legal duty to report it to the authorities for appropriate investigation.
At this time, I do not have copies of the images, but I am willing to provide a detailed description of what I observed and assist in any investigation as needed.
I understand that it is the responsibility of law enforcement to determine whether any laws have been broken and whether further action is necessary.
Thank you for your attention to this matter. I appreciate your efforts to ensure the protection and safety of the public.
Yours faithfully,
[Your Full Name]
🌿 Helpful Reminders:
- Only describe what you actually saw — no guesses, no assumptions.
- If you have more detailed notes, you can offer to provide them separately if requested.
- Stay factual and neutral — your job is to report, not judge (the police will investigate further).
💬 A gentle reminder:
Reporting disturbing or inappropriate images is a brave and responsible action.
You are helping protect others — even if it feels uncomfortable or frightening.
Your voice could prevent further harm.
