Crime Scene: Physical Evidence

The crime scene investigator team you shadowed last week is on the move again with a new call. Now you will incorporate what you learned last week with the new information learned this week. Your team was instructed to collect the physical evidence at a crime scene.

Arriving at the crime scene, your team observes the following: 

• Shell casings
• Bloody fingerprints
• Drug paraphernalia

Write a 700- to 1,050-word crime scene report, completing the following: 

• Identify additional types of physical evidence the team may have encountered at the crime scene and their significance.
• Describe the preservation and collection of the evidence.
• Offer explanations for your selected methods for packaging the evidence.

Cite any original sources used in writing your report.
