Crime Scene Case Investigation

 

            I have been on vacation from work the last two weeks. I work as a crime scene investigator for the Los Angeles Police Department. The other night I received a call from the mayor and was called to a scene where he was at three in the morning. I knew it was urgent because why would the mayor be on the scene of a crime, especially at three o'clock in the morning. When I got to the scene of the crime a woman was laying there. She experienced a tragic death. She was found in a chair with her wrists slit open from by a sharp knife. She was identified as Janice Brown, sister of Dennis Brown, who is the Mayor's best friend. There was a suicide note left at the scene, however, the mayor and Dennis seems to think wrongful death occurred and I was there to find out. I have been working as a crime scene investigator for twenty years, and have worked in thirty-six of fifty states. After I spent about two hours on the scene I already knew wrongful death had occurred. So the first process I started was obtaining known acquaintances of Janice. The list were the following: Donald Jones; Ann Smith; John Plain; Mary Jane and Gerry Doe. After I was finished with this I began doing the common scientific tests. The mayor took them all down to the station and took DNA samples and things for evidence. .
             The first test I started with was fingerprinting. Two prints were found on a fruit punch glass, and one print was found inside the apartment door. I then grouped them on a Fingerprint Evidence Sheet. There are three types of fingerprints being loops whorls and arches. I found a few prints on the scene. I closely analyzed all the prints. When I was finished I cross referenced the prints found at the scene with the prints of Janice's known acquaintances. It seems that that I got a match. Unknown fingerprint number one had a radial loop, right hand middle finger in which was Janice. Fingerprint number two had a Tented Arch, Left hand middle in which was Gerry.
