Forensic Science is the career field I am interested in. I would enjoy being a forensic science technician because of my interest in mysteries and figuring things out. This career choice is the right choice for me because I would only need a Bachelor’s degree, it would be work I enjoy doing, and I would make an exceptional salary. Forensic science technicians aid investigations by collecting and testing evidence. Many technicians spend time either in a laboratory or on the field in crime scene investigation.
The suspect who I think left the fingerprint is suspect H. The fingerprint found at the crime scene can be classified as a loop with a delta on the right side. Suspect A, B, and D’s fingerprints are arches, in addition to that, Suspect E, has a whorl fingerprint, thus all are able to be eliminated from being the possible suspects. The suspects left are C, F, G, and H, all of which share the loop characteristics.
Science has come a long way over the years. It has helped countless every day struggles and cure diseases most commonly found. What you don’t hear about however is the advancement of forensic science. Forensic science has helped solve countless cases of murder, rape, and sexual assault. In the case of John Joubert, it helped solve the murders of three young boys with one small piece of evidence that linked him directly to the crime.
A number of criminal movies increases every year. There are dozens of films and videos where actors investigate various murders and catch criminals. After watching 21st episode of the seventh season of the "CSI: Crime Scene Investigation”, I understand that not every case can be solved easily. Unfortunately, I have seen some cases on TV where suspects have not been arrested even though they were guilty. In such cases, FBI agents begin to build their own idea of crime and even put it in the place of crime to think what they would do in the same situation.

The crime scene is the physical area where a crime is thought to of occurred and where the evidence of the said crime is thought to reside. Vital evidence to a case, can be found at a crime scene.

When I think of the word "mystery", immediately thoughts of adventure, riddles and clues stream into my head. Every since I was a child, I had always been fascinated with the unknown and figuring out puzzles that others couldn't solve. My love for mystery influenced me to read books such as Sherlock Holmes or The Hardy Boys. Though I knew that I wanted to pursue my interest as a career, I did not know what it would be called. Now that I have found out, I without a doubt believe that CSI (or crime scene investigation) is my calling and destiny.

Which lens do I use for when there’s a crime scene. For crime – scene photography there are basic guidelines one should follow in order to get the perfect photo in different situations. Like you do not want to go all crazy taking pictures at things that are not important and also you do not want to take pictures in different places and not remember which photo belong into which location of the crime scene. When taking a photographs of the scene in logical sequence, “ this means that the crime scene should include the area in which the crime actually took place and all adjacent areas where important acts occurred...” ( Saferstein 59).
The case of Gareth Williams, an MI6 (British Secret Intelligence Service) agent specialized in decoding, was found decomposed and unclothed inside a sports bag in his bath, over a week of his death. Following over a year of investigating a potential DNA profile, the LGC realized that the profile was a contaminant and belonged to one of its forensic scientists, subsequently apologizing to the agent’s family for the typographical error (Anon, 2012). It was crucial to determine whether he was dead or alive when he was locked in the bag and if he could have padlocked himself in. Experts evidence exposed that it was highly improbable for him to have locked himself in the bag from the inside (Anon, 2012).
When serial killers kill they hardly stay in the same jurisdiction, when they commit a criminal act. Serial killers can distinguish the nature of their crimes, so a majority of each jurisdiction does not share information with other agencies. Follow up calls on most cases may not be enough on serial murders. The only difference between reactive investigations is when a crime happens law enforcement officers are called upon. Proactive investigation I when law enforcement officers are involved in a crime
