Crime Scene Investigation 101
Crime scene analysis combines the human
factor with scientific procedures and methods to interpret what
has occurred. While the scientific evidence may speak for
itself, it requires human understanding and voices to translate
that evidence into a court of law in order to ensure that
justice is always served.
Basic Death Investigations
Introduction to Basic Death Investigation begins to explore
basic death investigation, some different causes of death (drownings,
fires, gunshots, etc.), and basic body handling. You will learn
how to conduct an investigation of death resulting from
criminal, suspicious, known causes, or undetermined causes. You
will learn how to interview witnesses and prepare full
descriptions of scene and pertinent facts relating to the death.
Advanced Forensic Investigative Techniques Estimating Time and
Location of Death
Advanced Forensic Investigative Techniques
Estimating Time and Location of Death delves into the various
means to aid in determination of time and location of death,
which method is most appropriate for the case at hand, and the
various forensic experts who can assist you in this
determination.
Advanced Forensic Investigative Techniques: Analysis & Physical
Matching of Pattern & Trace Evidence
Physical evidence at a crime scene most often
occurs as trace evidence. Often this evidence requires physical
matching, analysis of physical or chemical properties,
separation into various components, identification of source,
and crime scene reconstruction in order to link a suspect to a
victim or crime scene. Knowing how to preserve, collect, and
process crime scene evidence is critical to the integrity of any
criminal investigation. Even if evidence collection is not part
of your job, knowing how to preserve the evidence so as to
maintain its evidentiary value is critical information for any
member of a crime or death scene investigation team.

Death Investigation: A Guide for the Scene Investigator
This report describes a study that focused on the
establishment of guidelines for conducting death investigations.
The Recovery of Human Remains: A Crime Scene Perspective
The experienced investigator or evidence technician can
handle a multitude of crime scenes from simple property damage cases to
multiple homicides and do an excellent job gathering all the pertinent
information and physical evidence from the "crime scenes". Why is it
then that such experienced officers fail to properly process a recovery
site? Very simply they have developed tunnel vision from repetitive
processing of "fresh" crime scenes and simply do not have the experience
and/or training to thoroughly process a recovery site.
Time of Death
One of the reasons that time of death estimates leave so
much room for error is the fact that there has been little focused study
of the variables.
The Corpse as a Scene
The corpse at the scene of a brutal homicide can often
tell those investigating the death many things. The forensic evidence
left behind on the corpse, often times becomes the silent witness
against those who commit the most heinous of crimes.
