    The general role of the Bloodstain Pattern Analyst in a criminal investigation is to assist in the reconstruction of those events of an alleged incident that could have created the stains and stain patterns present at a crime scene, on items of physical evidence recovered from that scene and on items of clothing that were present at the crime scene. In some cases, it may be necessary to conduct a bloodstain pattern interpretation using photographs. The usefulness of individual bloodstains and bloodstain patterns lies in their retention of information descriptive of the possible events that could have produced them. The sizes of the individual stains composing a pattern, the shapes of these stains and their distribution relative to one another can be utilized for the purposes of determining how a particular stain or pattern may have been produced. Bloodstain pattern analysis evaluations are conducted to determine what action(s) or sequence of actions could have created the bloodstains and/or patterns observed.…

    The question, “Who killed JonBenét?” may be as mysterious as, “Was there a person on the grassy knoll?” The murder of JonBenét has spurred at least eight television episodes, mini-documentaries, or special reports - and in September 2016 (during our class), another show which touts new DNA evidence (IMDb, 2016). The more I read, the more confused I became, this was/is a messed up case to say the least.

It goes without saying that the police did a poor job of securing…
