| Abstract | "Trace evidence is often not visible to the human eye. Therefore, it is typically the least understood and, unfortunately, the most overlooked form of evidence at the crime scene and surprisingly even within the forensic laboratory. Some police officers, scene investigators and laboratory personnel from other sections within the laboratory have a poor understanding of trace evidence. Proper knowledge is essential so that valuable trace evidence does not become lost, contaminated or accidentally transferred to another surface. Such incidents could severely hinder a successful criminal investigation. The goal of this chapter is to provide a foundation of knowledge that will enable successful processing of trace evidence in the forensic field"-- Provided by publisher. |
