Forensics Services
A forensic investigation is the practice of lawfully establishing evidence and facts that are to be presented in a court of law. The word forensic is derived from the Latin word forensis and means, of or before the forum. The term is used for nearly all investigations, ranging from computer crimes to murders. When most people think about a forensic investigation, they think about crime scene investigation, but there are other forms of forensic investigation.
The type of investigation most departments use revolves around violent crimes. Forensics used in these investigations can uncover scientific evidence that may provide enough proof or evidence to convict a violent criminal, or to disprove outdated evidence that could lead to the release of someone who was wrongfully convicted. The types of evidence this form of forensic investigation yields are biological or DNA evidence, which include evidence such as blood splatter and hairs, impression evidence,such as fingerprints, footprints, tire tracks, and weapons identification. The microscopic examination of firearms and tools for the purpose of matching weapons to wounds. After all of the evidence is carefully collected at the crime scene, the evidence is taken to be processed inside a crime lab.
