2-3 Preserving and Recording the Crime Scene Sketches Forensics

Sketching After the scene has been photographed, sketches should be prepared. At right, is an image of an extremely rough sketch.

Sketches A sketch drawn at the crime scene, that contains an accurate depiction of the dimensions of the scene and shows the location of all objects having a bearing on the case. The successful prosecution of a case can hinge on the state of the physical evidence at the time it is collected. The protection of the scene begins with the arrival of the first police officer at the scene and ends when the scene is released from police custody.

Record the Scene A sketch should Include Recovered times at crime scene All physical evidence Where objects are located in a room. An object should be measured by two reference points. The first officer on the scene of a crime should approach the scene slowly and methodically. In some eases this is not altogether practical. The first officer may also be involved in arresting an uncooperative suspect or performing life saving measures on an injured victim. In either ease the officer should make mental or written notes (as is practical in each situation) about the condition of the scene as it was upon the officer's arrival and after the scene has been stabilized. The officer should keep notes on the significant times involved in responding to the crime scene (time dispatched to scene, time left for scene, time arrived at scene, time left scene, etc.).

Finished Sketch A precise rendering of the crime scene is drawn to scale. It is measured with a tape measure and/or ruler. It should have care put into it. An effort must be made to disturb things as little as possible in assessing the situation. Particular attention should be paid to the floor since this is the most common repository for evidence and it poses the greatest potential for contamination.

CAD A Computer Aided Drafting Devise can more accurately create a crime scene. CAD provides a more accurate and precise means of documenting a scene.
