Document Summary
Within the case the suspect manage to remain anonymous by taking any type of trace evidence on the victims. However with the eyewitness account of her experience with the suspect they forensic evidence began to share similarities among the group of victims. According to locard"s theory, once a person comes into contact with an object or another person a cross transfer of physical evidence occurs. In the case with the suspect crime science investigators found bacteria on the victim body that shared similar traits to bacteria that was found on the floor of the suspect"s car. Concluding that the chances of these two bacteria begin the same was very low. The application of science to criminal and civil law: the entire concept of forensic science owe its origins to individuals such as. Bertillon, galton, lattes, goddard, osborn, and locard who developed the principle and techniques needed to identify or compare physical evidence.
