CSI Crime Scene Investigation Are there any stains or marks on the clothing? Is the clothing bunched up in particular direction? If so, this could indicate dragging. Are there any bruises, cuts or marks on body? Any defense wounds? Any injuries indicating, consistent with or inconsistent with the preliminary cause of death? Is there anything obviously missing? Is there a tan mark where a watch or ring should be? If blood is present in large amounts, does the direction of flow follow the laws of gravity? If not, the body may have been moved. If no blood is present in the area surrounding the body, is this consistent with the preliminary cause of death? If not, the body may have been moved. Are there any bodily fluids present beside blood? Is there any insect activity on the body? If so, the CSI may call in a forensic entomologist to analyze the activity for clues as to how long the person has been dead. While searching the scene, a CSI is looking for details including: Are the doors and windows locked or unlocked? Open or shut? Are there signs of forced entry, such as tool marks or broken locks? Is the house in good order? If not, does it look like there was a struggle or was the victim just messy? Is there mail lying around? Has it been opened? Is the kitchen in good order? Is there any partially eaten food? Is the table set? If so, for how many people? Are there signs of a party, such as empty glasses or bottles or full ashtrays? If there are full ashtrays, what brands of cigarettes are present? Are there any lipstick or teeth marks on the butts? Is there anything that seems out of place? A glass with lipstick marks in a man's apartment, or the toilet seat up in a woman's apartment? Is there a couch blocking a doorway? Is there trash in the trash cans? Is there anything out of the ordinary in the trash? Is the trash in the right chronological order according to dates on mail and other papers? If not, someone might have been looking for something in the victim's trash. Do the clocks show the right time? Are the bathroom towels wet? Are the bathroom towels missing? Are there any signs of a cleanup? If the crime is a shooting, how many shots were fired? The CSI will try to locate the gun, each bullet, each shell casing and each bullet hole. If the crime is a stabbing, is a knife obviously missing from victim's kitchen? If so, the crime may not have been premeditated. Are there any shoe prints on tile, wood or linoleum floors or in the area immediately outside the building? Are there any tire marks in the driveway or in the area around the building? Is there any blood splatter on floors, walls or ceilings? |
