A Pictorial Guide

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Using real death scene photos and actual cases as examples, this atlas provides a practical approach to evidence collection with emphasis on proper identification, documentation, and preservation. The book demonstrates best practices for collecting DNA from decedents depending on the circumstances of the death scene and other materials present on the decedent. The authors discuss the success of the techniques employed in each scenario and analyze the DNA results obtained. The techniques can also be applied to sexual assault cases, where DNA is collected from the body after an assault takes place.
