Chapter 8 Blood and Blood Spatter By the end of this chapter you will be able to: Explain the composition of blood Describe the function of blood cells Determine the blood type of a blood sample Conduct a blood splatter analysis Examine wounds and describe the nature of the weapon Find and process blood evidence All Rights Reserved South-Western / Cengage Learning © 2012, 2009 Forensic Science: Fundamentals & Investigations, Chapter 8

Introduction and History Blood typing provides class evidence Forensic Science: Fundamentals & Investigations, Chapter 8

Introduction and History DNA profiling provides individual evidence Forensic Science: Fundamentals & Investigations, Chapter 8

Introduction and History A blood spatter pattern provides information the truthfulness of an account by a witness or a suspect the origin of the blood the angle and velocity of impact the type of weapon used Forensic Science: Fundamentals & Investigations, Chapter 8

Composition of Blood Forensic Science: Fundamentals & Investigations, Chapter 8

Composition of Blood Forensic Science: Fundamentals & Investigations, Chapter 8

Composition of Blood Plasma—a liquid suspending other blood components Forensic Science: Fundamentals & Investigations, Chapter 8

Composition of Blood Red blood cells (Erthrocytes)—carries oxygen to the body’s cells and carbon dioxide away Forensic Science: Fundamentals & Investigations, Chapter 8

Composition of Blood White blood cells (Leukocytes)—fights disease and foreign invaders and, alone, contain cell nuclei Forensic Science: Fundamentals & Investigations, Chapter 8

Composition of Blood Platelets—aids in blood clotting and the repair of damaged blood vessels Forensic Science: Fundamentals & Investigations, Chapter 8

Composition of Blood Can you identify the different blood cells? Forensic Science: Fundamentals & Investigations, Chapter 8

Types of Blood Cells Forensic Science: Fundamentals & Investigations, Chapter 8

Cellular Components of Blood Forensic Science: Fundamentals & Investigations, Chapter 8

Blood Typing—Proteins Discovered in 1900 by Karl Landsteiner Forensic Science: Fundamentals & Investigations, Chapter 8

Blood Typing—Proteins 42% 12% 3% 43% of the population in the United States Forensic Science: Fundamentals & Investigations, Chapter 8

Rh Factor 85% of the population has a protein called RH factor on their blood cells Forensic Science: Fundamentals & Investigations, Chapter 8

Blood compatibility Forensic Science: Fundamentals & Investigations, Chapter 8

Blood Typing—Antibodies Antibodies are Y-shaped proteins secreted by white blood cells that attach to antigens to destroy them Antigens are foreign molecules or cells that react to antibodies Forensic Science: Fundamentals & Investigations, Chapter 8

Blood Enzymes Enzymes are complex proteins that catalyze different biochemical reactions Many enzymes and proteins have been found in the blood that are important for identification purposes Forensic Science: Fundamentals & Investigations, Chapter 8

Blood Typing —Probability and Blood Types The probability of a blood type equals the product of probabilities for each protein group If Type A = 42% and Rh Factor = 85% Then A+ = .42 x .85 = .357 (35.7%) Knowing additional proteins and enzymes in the blood sample Narrows the population group Increases the probability of identifying a suspect Forensic Science: Fundamentals & Investigations, Chapter 8

Blood Spatter 1939—spatter patterns first analyzed Blood may spatter when a wound is inflicted Blood spatter pattern—a grouping of blood stains Patterns help to reconstruct the events surrounding a shooting, stabbing, or beating Forensic Science: Fundamentals & Investigations, Chapter 8

Blood Spatter Analysis Analysis of a spatter pattern can aid in determining the: direction blood traveled angle of impact point of origin of the blood velocity of the blood manner of death Forensic Science: Fundamentals & Investigations, Chapter 8

Blood Spatter Analysis Natural cohesiveness of blood Forensic Science: Fundamentals & Investigations, Chapter 8

Blood Spatter Analysis Satellite droplets— When blood falls from a height, or at a high velocity, It overcomes its natural cohesiveness, and Separates from the main droplet Spiking patterns— Form around the droplet edges when blood falls onto a less-than-smooth surface Forensic Science: Fundamentals & Investigations, Chapter 8

Blood Spatter Analysis —Directionality The shape of an individual drop of blood provides clues to the direction from where the blood originated. How will the point of impact compare with the rest of a blood pattern? Forensic Science: Fundamentals & Investigations, Chapter 8

Blood Spatter Analysis Lines of convergence—two or blood spatters can pinpoint the location of the blood source Forensic Science: Fundamentals & Investigations, Chapter 8

Blood Spatter Analysis —Six Patterns Describe each of these: Passive drops Arterial gushes Splashes Smears Trails Pools Forensic Science: Fundamentals & Investigations, Chapter 8

Blood Spatter Analysis —Impact Patterns can help investigators determine the type of weapon used What kind of a pattern is produced by a gun shot? What kind of a pattern is produced by a hammer blow? Forensic Science: Fundamentals & Investigations, Chapter 8

Crime Scene Investigation of Blood Search for blood evidence Determine Is the evidence blood? Is the blood human? What is the blood type? Interpret the findings: Does the blood type match a suspect’s blood? If not, exclude that suspect If yes, decide if DNA profiling is necessary Forensic Science: Fundamentals & Investigations, Chapter 8

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Summary Blood consists of cellular components and plasma. The various human blood types are caused by the presence or absence of A and/or B proteins on the surface of red blood cells. Blood spatter evidence can be used to recreate a crime scene. Investigators endeavor to (a) locate, (b) identify, and (c) interpret blood spatter patterns at crime scenes. Forensic Science: Fundamentals & Investigations, Chapter 8
