Q 1. What are the issues that affect evidence collection? 2. You respond to a late night crime scene. It is an outdoor shooting in a vehicle and of course, it is raining. The reconstruction indicates that the shooter most likely leaned against the car to shoot inside. You think that there will be prints on the outside by the passenger door. Do you process the wet vehicle at the scene or tow the vehicle to the lab to dry out in order to get a better print? 3. You respond to another crime scene, this time it is an apartment burglary. The residents were gone for the week and upon returning they found their door broken and items missing. While processing you find a fresh block of cheese on the counter with a bite mark. What do you do? Is the cheese evidence? 4. While processing a stabbing you find limited evidence. However, your partner finds what they think is a patent fingerprint in blood. What do you do with the print? It is on a surface that can't be removed and taken as a whole to the lab.
