ut if there five or ten, along with other forensic evidence, it is enough to say that an individual committed a crime "beyond a reasonable doubt."
The glove that didn't fit O.J. Simpson at his trial for the murder of his wife and another man is an example of forensic evidence that cleared someone who was falsely accused. Whether that was the correct verdict, we will never know for certain. Forensic evidence that does not "fit" an individual can just as easily remove him or her as a suspect.

The glove alone did not bring a verdict of not guilty to Simpson, but it was certainly a keystone in the defense. If he was supposed to have worn that glove when he committed the crime, and the glove is too small to fit his hand, how could he have committed the crime? It would be the same with DNA, or blood….

Forensic Evidence
Chain of Custody and Preservation of Evidence in the Jonenet Ramsey Murder Case

The objective of this study is to discuss how criminalists protect evidence from contamination and to demonstrate appropriate techniques for handling evidence. This study will differentiate between latent and visible evidence and advocate for the necessity of proper procedures to uphold evidence findings. Specifically, this study will review a known criminal case involving chain of custody and preservation of evidence and will answer as to how significant the physical evidence was in the criminal investigations of this case. As well this study will answer what type of evidence was involved in the case, latent, visible, or both and if the secure chain of custody was followed. Finally this study will answer whether the legal integrity of all evidence was upheld through proper possession, handling, storing, and documentation and answer why it is important and necessary to maintain….

Collecting Forensic Evidence as a Corporate Controller for Apollo Shoes
Procedures for Collecting Forensic Evidence as a Corporate Controller for Apollo Shoes

Dealing with fraudulent practices within accounting is a daunting process. Evaluating massive amounts of data over a very short period of time must be done systematically in order to provide irrefutable evidence that either supports or denies allegations of fraud within financial reporting. Thus, it is important to effectively map out the design process of the investigation, gather data efficiently through the appropriate channels, and then evaluate data based on presumed categorical differences in order to make clear assumptions about possible financial fraud that can hold up in a court of law.

Before embarking on the actual investigation of Apollo Shoe's irregular financial presentation, it is important to clearly define the process used. Thus, before the investigation even begins, it will be crucial to set goals to frame its processes….

Efficacy of Handwriting Analyses as Forensic Evidence
Humankind has been writing for millennia, but it has only been in the last 100 years or so that individual handwriting samples could be distinguished by forensic document examiners to the extent that their testimony was deemed admissible as evidence in a court of law. In recent years, this analysis has been augmented by sophisticated handwriting analytical devices that are being used by national and international law enforcement authorities to identify clues that might otherwise go otherwise undiscerned. To gain some fresh insights into these issues, this paper provides a review of the relevant peer-reviewed and scholarly literature concerning the efficacy of handwriting analyses as forensic evidence, followed by a summary of the research and important findings in the conclusion.

Review and Analysis

ackground and Overview

According to lack's Law Dictionary, forensics means "belonging to courts of justice."

The term forensics relates to criminal cases and is distinguished….

Define the physical properties of the evidence collected The physical properties of the impression and pattern evidence include fingerprints (National Institute of Justice, 2016). Fingerprints can be attained from multiple places within a burglarized location. It is perhaps best to obtain them in close proximity to where items were stolen. These properties are mostly defined optically, since they can be seen. The physical properties of the trace evidence include fiber from some sort of clothing. This evidence can be gathered from places at the crime scene where the criminal spent the most time. It includes characteristics such as color and texture. The physical properties of the forensic biology evidence pertain to hair. These include characteristics such as DNA, in addition to the color and texture of hair found.
Explain what information can be found from this evidence
A fair amount of information can be found from the evidence gathered. The DNA evidence gathered….

Using forensic medical evidence in court It is a requirement by the International law for all states to carry out investigations for all allegations of torture and bring to book the culprits. The victims of such torture also need to be compensated adequately by the state. Many torturers perform their heinous acts in the dark, and try to conceal all possible evidence, but still aim at inflicting as much pain as possible. There is therefore need for comprehensive documentation that will expose the perpetrators in such a way that they cannot dare deny their crimes against humanity. The challenge here remains in proving that so and so committed such and such a crime (Wheeler, 2016). Failure to provide evidence of torture may foster a culture of impunity, where torturers can continue carrying out their acts knowing well that they will never be arrested, prosecuted and punished. This essay seeks to outline….

2005, one file sent by the BTK killer to a Wichita television station led police to investigate Dennis ader, a church president, and ended the 30-year murder spree of this serial killer. What evidence was pivotal in this case?
Computer evidence has become increasingly pivotal in demonstrating the guilt or innocence of a suspect. This has recently been seen in the so-called BTK case. The case is testimony to the value of using computer evidence in modern forensic science. The BTK (Bind, Torture, Kill) killer was linked to eight murders in the 1970s and '80s and then resurfaced in 1991 and later in the 21st century. But when the killer Dennis ader "came to his pastor in January with a floppy disk, saying he had the agenda of a church council meeting and needed to run off copies on a printer," the electronic imprint in the disk linked ader to….

Forensic Case Study
Enrique Camarena

The abduction of Enrique Camarena

The abduction of Enrique Camarena presents numerous interesting and unusual features regarding the gathering of forensic evidence. Many of obstacles that arose over the course of the investigation can be traced to the fact that the DEA Special Agent was apprehended in Mexico, where U.S. laws about preserving evidence did not apply. The Mexican police force (at least at the time of the abduction in 1984) was much more prone to corruption and bribery by persons engaged in illegal drug trafficking than U.S. law enforcement. ather than seeing to assist the DEA in bringing the murderers of Camarena to justice, the Mexican police often acted as obstacles, not assistants.

The real perpetrators of the murder of Camarena concocted a scheme with certain select members of the Mexican policy whereby Camarena's body (and the body of Capt. Alfredo Zavala, a Mexican DEA source) would be….

Forensic Pathology: Forensics and DNA
DNA is part of the building blocks of human life and individuality: "DNA is present in nearly every cell of our bodies, and we leave cells behind everywhere we go without even realizing it. Flakes of skin, drops of blood, hair, and saliva all contain DNA that can be used to identify us" (Norrgard, 2008). DNA has long been a major part of forensics testing used in criminal cases for over forty years. "At its inception, DNA testing could only be performed by laboratories with molecular diagnostic capabilities" (Calaluce, 2010, p.2). The controversy surrounding DNA testing that made it more heavily scrutinized when it first debuted largely revolved around the fact that it was considered a "soft science" and that DNA evidence was viewed as simply not as reliable as other types. However, this controversy has since been eliminated: and there is absolutely no valid scientific….

atchen (2005) defines the components of the nursing process as the client, the environment, the definition of health, and the definition of the nurse's role. Another trend in healthcare to be addressed is the reduction of enrollment in Registered Nurse (RN) programs, which has led to a shortage of trained nurses. This trend is important because the role of the forensic nurse has changed as a result of the increase in a nurse's range of function, with the rise in the number of the elderly due to improved healthcare systems and the introduction of community-based preventive projects.
In the future, the role of the forensic nurse may become more specialized and considered a separate profession from the registered nurse. According to the Federal ureau of Health professions, in 2000, the National supply of registered nurses was estimated at 1.89 million, while the demand was projected at 2 million, a shortage….

Forensic Chemistry
Forensics is a very important part of a crime scene investigation. There used to be a time when murders or crimes were left unsolved due to the lack of evidence. However with the advances in technology and research in forensics, crime solving has become a lot easier. The branch of science, which helps out in finding out important evidence, is known as Forensics Chemistry. Forensics Chemistry employs methods, which help in finding clues, which couldn't be found in any other circumstances. We can simply call it the application of a brand of chemistry at the scene of a crime. This is a science which helps us investigate chemical substances and can help trace the cause of the death of a human being by finding useful evidence. However it's not important that the crime scene may be a site of murder or theft. It could also be due to environmental….

Forensic Sciences in the USA and the United Kingdom
Over the last two decades, the forensic science has assisted in producing valuable evidence that has contributed to a successful conviction and prosecution of criminals and exoneration of innocent citizens. Typically, an advanced in forensic science and DNA technology have been a great assistance for law enforcement agency for an identification and prosecution of criminals. In the United States and the UK, many cases that have been formally unsolved have now been solved based on the great assistance of the forensic science investigators. (National esearch Council, 2009). Forensics or forensic science is a field of investigation drawing different scientific disciplines in law, criminal and civil services. This practice requires an application of scientific knowledge, quantitative, qualitative and empirical skills to collect and analyze data that will assist in presenting evidence in a tribunal or court of law. However, the method the….

Forensic Toxicology in the 21st Century Courtroom
Innovations in forensic technologies in recent years have introduced a wide array of powerful law enforcement tools that can be used to help identify criminal perpetrators and establish the credible evidence needed to convict them. As a result, today, forensic toxicologists play an increasingly vital role in the criminal justice system where the need for accurate and valid evidence is paramount. To determine the precise role and importance of the forensic toxicologist today, this paper provides a review of the relevant peer-reviewed and scholarly literature, followed by a summary of the research and significant findings concerning these issues in the conclusion.

eview and Discussion

By definition, forensic toxicology is focused on providing scientific evidence for the courts. For example, Anderson and Volker (2008) report that, "The term 'forensic' is effectively a synonym for 'legal' or 'related to courts' and in Latin means 'before the forum.'….

Forensic and Clinical oles and Assessment
While psychologists and psychiatrists may engage in both clinical and forensic practice, it important to recognize that clinical and forensic practice are distinct areas of practice. This means that the role of the forensic and clinical practitioner differs in several ways: "who the client of the psychologist is the nature of the relationship between the psychologist and the individual being evaluated, and the psychologist's approach to the material provided by the individual" (Packer, 2008). Moreover, it also means that the professional assesses the individual differently. These differences include: the purpose of the assessment, the goal of the intervention, and psycho-legal vs. psychological assessment. While the differences may seem clear, the reality is that even forensic evaluations can lead to the establishment of the type of relationships that develop in clinical practice, making it difficult for health care professionals and for their clients to differentiate….

Forensic Fabric Analysis
Some of the basic tools that a fabric examiner should at least have at any given moment include a stereomicroscope, along with a composite light microscope that is fitted with polarized light capability, and a comparison microscope. When examining both questioned and known fabric, the examiner must do this side by side, and within the same magnifications in terms of visible light. Alternative lighting, which includes fluorescent lighting and polarized light, is not necessary but when the equipment used allows, is highly recommended. In certain types of analyses, such as when testing for solubility, you may need to examine the questioned and known fabric near each other, and on one slide, or in the spot plate's wells that are adjacent to each other. However, you need to exercise extreme caution where loose fabric is concerned not unless you have no problem with identifying the source of each fabric….
