with Detective Garside
"The Devil is in the details"
Mr.Garside came into class today to begin forensics week. Last year, Mr.Garside visited us and discussed his crash investigations, and helped us work through a demo crash scene. This year, while it is a lot alike, we will be assessing a scene and arguing whether the person should be prosecuted or be named innocent.
Forensic evidence is evidence obtained by scientific methods such as ballistics, blood test, and DNA test and used in court. Forensic evidence often helps to establish the guilt or innocence of possible suspects. Analysis of forensic evidence is used in the investigation and prosecution of civil as well as criminal proceedings.
