Copyright © 2013 Crosscutting Concepts, LLC. All Rights Reserved. Hair and Fiber Trace Evidence The two most common types of trace evidence are hair and fibers. The type, condition, and number of hairs found at a scene all contribute to their value in an investigation.

Copyright © 2013 Crosscutting Concepts, LLC. All Rights Reserved. Structure of Hair The root sheath is the base from which the hair shaft grows. DNA can be obtained from the hair root. Hair shafts contain 3 layers: –medulla (inner) –cortex (middle) –cuticle (outer)

Copyright © 2013 Crosscutting Concepts, LLC. All Rights Reserved. Determining Hair Location Scalp hairs are longer with a moderate shaft diameter and broken up medulla. Pubic hairs are more coarse and wiry. They have broad, continuous medullas throughout.

Copyright © 2013 Crosscutting Concepts, LLC. All Rights Reserved. Determining Hair Location Scalp hairs show characteristics from grooming: –coloring –bleaching –split or cut ends Human hair grows at about ½ inch per month, giving an investigator the ability to measure the duration between a crime and an event such as coloring the hair.

Copyright © 2013 Crosscutting Concepts, LLC. All Rights Reserved. Fibers Fibers can be from natural or synthetic sources. Fibers may support or refute statements from both witnesses and suspects. Fibers found on the accused present a compelling argument that the individual was at the crime scene.

Copyright © 2013 Crosscutting Concepts, LLC. All Rights Reserved. Matching Fibers Finding multiple types of fibers on the suspect and scene increases the likelihood that this did not occur by chance alone. Cross-transfer of fibers (the suspect both leaves and takes fibers from the scene) provides more compelling evidence in a case.
