htmlText_0309A04B_1991_DB69_41AE_47FA4F0D1072.html = This hand mark may hold vital information to link to the injured party who may have made contact with this area when they were hit by the car.
In our CSI module (which involves the Crime Scene House and adjacent areas seen in this tour) you will learn how to correctly record evidence such as this and recover it for later comparisons in the laboratory.
Once you have had a good look around this crime scene scenario you will notice both doors are open and there are 2 phones in the area. This may suggest that there was more than one occupant in the vehicle at the time of the collision. Thus, we need to try to identify both. The phones can be used by digital forensic experts to interrogate recent use. The cigarette butts are a relatively quick and easy source of DNA which you will learn about in several of the modules.
These indicate that the occupant(s) and thus the driver may have been intoxicated whilst driving. So if a suspect has been arrested they will need to be tested to determine whether or not they have been drinking. These bottles can also be tested for fingerprints and/or saliva to provide DNA and help identify who could have drunk from them.
We cover these methods in the Introduction to Forensic Science Module where students will examine the features of their own prints.
The fact they are still in the ignition show the driver left in a hurry! We can record and recover these using techniques learnt and practiced in out crime scene house and surrounding areas. These can be examined for DNA to determine who may have handled them.
Whenever someone makes contact with another area, they always leave some trace evidence behind. In this case the driver of the car may have left hairs on the head rest? This could allow us to determine their hair type and colour, which also may allow us to determine race.
Fibres from the occupants clothes may have been deposited on the seat. These fibres could link back to specific items of clothing and therefore a suspect.
Also, during high impact collisions, the force of the individual impacting the plastic inside the car can lead to evidence called fibre/plastic fusion. This is where the fibres from the clothes become embedded in the plastic due to high friction creating heat. Plastic can also be found on the clothing as it has melted due to the friction.
Phones offer a vast amount of forensic information. We can access the information held on phones to give clues to the owners activities.We can also determine who could have been using the phone by sampling it for DNA and comparing that directly to an individual suspect using reference samples. If reference samples are not available we could compare the DNA profile from the phone to the National DNA Database which holds millions of DNA profiles (from unsolved crimes, volunteers and people arrested / convicted for crimes).
We go through DNA in several modules including the Forensic DNA Analysis Module.
These are called drips – they show there has been someone injured and freely bleeding in that area. The shape and distribution of blood staining can give lots of information at a crime scene – we cover this in our Interpretation of Evidence Module.
We would also sample this blood staining to determine who it could have originated from using DNA - we cover this in our Forensic DNA Analysis Module.
A hat was left on the scene along the trail of blood. Could this hold any evidence?
How would you record and collect this as a piece of evidence?
A hit and run has occurred in a quiet residential area. A female on a bike has been hit by a car and the occupant(s) of the car have run from the scene.
The female has been taken to hospital with head injuries and cuts to her face.
You need to have a closer look around the scene to see what evidence can be targeted to assist with this investigation. The owner of the vehicle (Mr Quill) was located at his home address, where police officers believe he had been drinking. Mr Quill has stated that his vehicle had been stolen.
In this case the car is still present, but if it had left the scene then a broken number plate would be valuable to try and identify the unknown vehicle.
The number plate details could be ran against a database to identify the vehicle. If the vehicle can then be located we could then determine if it originated from that vehicle by using “physical fit” method. We cover this in modules including Introduction to Forensic Science to see if broken fragments can be linked to a source.
