Using hundreds of photographs and a minimum of text, this book provides instruction and review in a pictorial format useful to both professional crime scene investigators and those in law enforcement who may be required to process a scene in the absence of certified technicians. Taking readers through one continuous case study, each module illustrates each step of the crime scene processing function with photographs, diagrams, and short lists of instructions. It covers all steps necessary to recognize, document, process, collect, package, preserve, and safeguard potential evidence.
