The mystery behind child beauty queen Jonbenet Ramseys murder can be summed up into two theories connecting her parents to the crime or one of Johns coworkers. The investigation into the murder of Jonbenet Ramsey was marred from the outset by such police errors as allowing Ramsey family and friends to contaminate the crime scene before securing the area, allowing her father to search the house unaccompanied by police, and letting family members remove items from the home before the investigation was completed. This case highlights the need for proper crime scene management (Katz 1).

The case that I will be discussing is the cold murder case of Lucille Johnson from Salt Lake City, Utah. Unfortunately, at the time of the murder the investigators didn’t take certain evidence serious in the case. The investigators thought that it was just evidence that had no meaning. None the less, it ended up convicting the murderer, John Sansing.

There was an event that happened in Alberta in 2010. A 20-year-old woman had been vanished and murdered near Edmonton, whose name is Amber Tuccaro. After 2 years disappearance, the police released a disturbing audio that records the last phone call of Amber. We can hear that there was a man’s voice in the conversation, which was absolutely the sound of the kidnapper. The full audio record is 17 minutes, which shows the time that kidnapper drove from the place where Amber got on to the place they arrived. Just four days after the record release, the skeleton of Amber had been found coincidentally. However, the murderer had not been arrested yet. This event is still an unsolved murder case.

11:30 P.M. approximated time of death. 8:15 A.M. Wednesday, April 15th Victim found. Victor Timm, 20 years old (5’8”, 150 lbs). Cause of death: Strangulation/suffocation. It is thought that there was tension between victim and 6 other students all apart of the “VOCALPALOOZA” ( a local choir competition). Witnesses were able to recreate the crime scene with artificial materials which helped police and detectives find the motive of the murderer. With all of the clues taken into consideration, I was able to come to a conclusion. I charge Ms. Elle Corazon with the brutal murder of Victor Timm.

Investigation: The detective upon receiving information on the events, beings his initial investigation of the crime. The detective, along with his team, collects evidence such as: video surveillance, finger prints, bullet analysis, blood pattern analysis, DNA, and interviews the witnesses. At some point in the investigation, an interview was conducted on a customer that got a full description of the suspect. The detective, upon hearing his statement, requests for a sketch artist. The sketch artist pencils up a picture of the suspect and copies are made and handed out to all patrols. The individual describes the suspect as a tall white male, with short brown hair, about 6’4, wearing glasses with a five o’ clock shadow, and about 210lbs. The suspect was described as wearing a white hoodie and blue

Introduction One night a lady’s body was found dead in her apartment building. When the police came to collect the body as well as any evidence related to the crime they found many fibers including a red fiber found on the victim’s body. This red fiber was extremely interesting considering that close friends and family members of the victim stated that the victim hated red, and probably didn’t own anything of that color. From this we know that if the fiber is red then it does not belong to the lady. In addition, the door man stated that he did not see anybody enter the apartment building during the time of the killing, therefore we can conclude that the killer must live in the apartment building.

This is a picture of what victimology is. It is also sometimes a best case scenario, a dream too good to be true for many areas in the USA. CSI and other shows demonstrate how this process might work under the most ideal of conditions with the most highly trained and most capable of

The JonBenet Case Several analyses have been conducted when it comes to the JonBenet case, in which it is assumed that the parents of JonBenet murder the six-year-old beauty queen. Due to the investigation that was conducted the case is still unresolved. A different outcome could have arisen if the initial police officers and investigators would have focused on looking for other suspects other than JonBenet 's parents, secured the scene, and separated and interrogated the people inside the scene. The forensic evidence that was discovered that day was unreliable due to the standard procedures that were not followed. The first step in maintaining a crime scene integrity is to properly secure the scene and the immediate vicinity around it. If a crime scene is properly secured unnecessary disturbance and contamination of the evidence is reduced. Immediately after the scene is secured an entry log is kept to account for any person who is inside or is wanting to go inside. Shoe impressions may be asked for comparison if any latent shoeprints are found. However, this protocol was not observed in the murder of JonBenet. The scene was left unsecured, and individuals were entering as they pleased. Secondly, investigators did not follow the standard operation procedures compromising the crime

The purpose of this lab report is to synthesize luminol and then test its chemiluminescent properties. 5-nitro-2,3-dihydrophtalazine-1,4-dione was reduced using sodium hydrosulfite in a solution of 3 M sodium hydroxide in water to form luminol. The product was then used to chemically generate light by reacting luminol with 3 M sodium hydroxide, hydrogen peroxide, and potassium ferricyanide. The reaction created a bright, blue light emission. From glow sticks to revealing remnants of blood samples in crime scene investigations, luminol, C8H7N3O2, has a wide variety of real world applications.

The novel In The Woods is a story of how two investigators work together solving murderous crimes and takes many interesting twist and turns. The main investigation involves the murder of a young girl who is found on a student archeological dig site with a smashed skull. With no eye witnesses and very few leads, this investigation could easily go unsolved. Luckily, many suspects start coming to the light, but of course along with a collection of evidence that may lead investigators astray. These complications cause a ton of frustration for both the reader and detectives.

Incident: The murder of two individuals in their own home. The prime suspect is the young daughter who is in police custody. The parents were dead before first responders arrived and the daughter was found on the couch staring at a blank Television.

Blood splatter can verify the position of the people involved in the crime, as well as give clues on how people were injured or died. Mainly, blood splatter eliminates many possibilities. It can show injuries the victim had, what happened as they were dying, and the angle the crime happened at (McShane) To further add on, blood splatter produces “spines” when dropped. Scientists determined that counting the “spines” determine what height and speed the blood fell down at (Powell). This can prove invaluable in crime. Not only does the blood splatter eliminate

Most of these stains are invisible using naked eyes. In most case, the chemical is applicable in crime investigations. This product contains a unique chemical formula that makes it suitable, and the most effective blood revealed that individuals can find in the marketplaces (Maloney, 2014, pp 253).

In Crime Scene to Courtroom: Forensic Writing the focus is on learning how to document things throughout the process of an investigation. Students in this class learn how to write the complicated and detailed documents used places like the legal and

As my interest grew, I begged my parents for a CSI Forensic Analysis Kit. They were surprised, even skeptical, given we did not have any lawyers in the family nor anyone involved in law enforcement. But they love to support me in everything I dream of doing, so they bought me my own CSI kit. I spent many days sifting through “evidence,” collecting random fingerprints I discovered around my house, and conducting my own forensic experiments. My parents watched eagerly as I set up crime scenes and presented my case to a makeshift jury made up of stuffed animals and my younger sister.
