Forensic identification

Introduction: Forensic science is the application of various scientific techniques and methods to investigate the physical Crime evidence. Forensic science links the Suspect, victim to crime scene, and link victim to suspect and suspect to victim. To determine the relevance of the evidence, number of different techniques are being used. This evidence is than presented in court of law in order to determine the innocence or guilt of a suspect. Different type of cases are encountered like rape,…

women or on the car seats. (Lynch & Cole 2008) Fingerprinting relies on unique patterns of loops and archers that differentiates a person from another, as an individual’s fingerprint is unique. In a crime scene investigation, forensics rely on two forms of finger print identification. There are visible prints that could be recognised on any type of surface that could create a form of impression such as blood or dirt, whereby the finger prints onto it (Lynch & Cole 2008). Furthermore, there are…

While x-rays are regarded as accommodating tools to complement forensic investigations, there are also limitations present. CT imaging provides optimal views of anatomical structures with elaborate reconstructions to view the images in innumerable ways. The remarkable features of CT scanners are associated with expensive costs of the construction and maintenance of the scanner. Though the payoff is extraordinary, facilities would need a great amount of funding before the installation of a CT…

Fingerprints are the most incriminating type of evidence that can be used in a criminal case. Fingerprints are one of the most reliable forms of identification, because no two people have the same fingerprint pattern, thus making fingerprints irrefutable in courtrooms for decades now. This makes fingerprints the most fundamental tool for an accurate and precise identification of criminals (Criminal Justice Degrees, 2016). Fingerprints consist of: friction…

related to the field of forensics. The study of crime scenes and the criminal mind are both fascinating to me. My dad is in charge of safety and security at the Tallahassee International Airport, as well as prior military, so I have been exposed to security, military and law enforcement career fields throughout my life. This exposure has sparked an interest in forensics and has led me to research different careers in the field of criminal forensics. Due to my love of forensics, and my belief…

Fingerprints have been widely used throughout the world as means of identification for forensic purposes. Forensic experts have extensively relied on premises that fingerprint characteristics are highly discriminatory and immutable amongst the general population (Haber and Haber, 2008). Fingerprint formation is induced by the stresses and strains experienced by the fetus in utero, which are random and infinite, it is likely that they subsequently produce a random, infinite variety of friction…

Forensic applies to courts or the judicial system, combine that with science and forensic science mean applying scientific methods and processes to solving crime. Forensic Science deals with the application of the knowledge and methodology of various disciplines of science to legal matters. It involves the use of multiple disciplines such as physics, chemistry, biology, computer science and engineering for evidence analysis. For instance, physics is used to understand the pattern of a blood…

everyday life, even in crime solving. A major field that uses technology is forensic science. The technology used helps to classify DNA, register fingerprints, and classify evidence. To understand what forensic technologies are and how they help classify evidence you might want to know what forensic science is and what it does. Forensic science is the classification and analysis of evidence from a crime scene. Forensic evidence fulfills several roles in criminal investigations. Its helps prove…

On a typical Friday evening, I enjoy binge-watching the popular tv show: Crime Scene Investigation (CSI). As I intensely watch these group of forensic investigators work to solve often-grisly crimes in Sin City; I could only wish to be a part of their team bringing social change and justice to criminals. I would consider myself a qualified candidate because I have an interest in science, good communication skills, and the mind of a detective. However, to further this interest to reality, I knew…

FORENSIC SCIENCE (forensis: a latin word, meaning-belonging to the court of law) in its’ simplest term is the multidisciplinary branch of science that is used for the court of law for criminal administration. The role of forensic science starts after Crime Scene Investigation. It is the Physical Evidences which are Collected, Packed, Preserved, from the crime scene and Forwarded to the Forensic Laboratories for their examination under the different branches of this science. CRIME SCENE…
