Question- What is Crime Scene Sketch?

Answer- A crime scene sketch is a permanent record of the size and distance relationship of the crime scene and the physical evidence within it. The sketch serves to clarify the special information present within the photo-graphs and video documentation, because the other methods do not allow the viewer to easily gauge distances and dimensions. A sketch is the most simplistic manner in which to present crime scene layout and measurements. Photographer /camera positions may be noted within a sketch also.

Answer- ■ It accurately portrays the physical facts.

■ It relates to the sequence of events at the scene.

Trace Evidence

Trace evidence often refers to minute samples of a substance such as hair, fibers, glass, paint chips and fragments. Crime scenes commonly contain trace evidence, often caused by the perpetrator unknowingly coming into contact with surfaces and leaving behind or picking up particulates. Careful collection of evidences from crime scene can give lots of information about where a sample came from and how it helps to tell the story. Scientists examine the physical, optical and chemical properties of trace evidence and use a variety of tools to find and compare samples, and look for the sources or each item. Most test methods require magnification and chemical analysis.

Rock and Forensic Science

👉 A rock may be defined simply as a mass of solid matter that is composed mainly of mineral crystals or grains that are texturally intergrown or held together by some form of cement.

👉 Pieces of rock have several attributes which can potentially be used as a basis for forensic comparison, including size, shape, surface texture (including weathering rinds and coatings), density, color, chemical composition, mineralogical composition, internal textural layering, fabric, magnetic characteristics, fossil assemblage (both macrofossil and microfossil), and age.

👉 Three main rock groups are: 🌑 Igneous, 🌑 Metamorphic, 🌑 and Sedimentary.
