10. “Wherever he steps, whatever he touches, whatever he leaves, even unconsciously, will serve as a silent witness against him. Not only his fingerprints or his footprints, but his hair, the fibers from his clothes, the glass he breaks, the tool mark he leaves, the paint he scratches, the blood or semen he deposits or collects. All of these and more, bear mute witness against him. This is evidence that does not forget. It is not confused by the excitement of the moment. It is not absent because human witnesses are. It is factual evidence. Physical evidence cannot be wrong, it cannot perjure itself, it cannot be wholly absent. Only human failure to find it, study and understand it, can diminish its value.“ - Professor Edmond Locard

31.  The Scene is simply defined as the actual site or location in which the incident took place.

32.  It is imperative that the first responding officer on the scene protect the individuals involved as a first priority.  Protecting the evidence is the second task. The entire investigation could be dependent on this.  Why is it important to secure the scene? Scene is secured by a restricting a perimeter, utilizing rope or tape.  Entry of authorized personal is recorded.  All unauthorized personal or removed to eliminate possibility of contamination or transfer of evidence (Locard)

33.  Witnesses must not be allowed to talk with each other.  This is done so they do not compare stories and so that a new story is not created. (collusion)

34.  A forensic examiner needs to be able to scan the scene to determine if there is a primary crime scene or potentially a secondary crime scene.  Primary scene- place the incident occurred  Secondary scene- any other place connected to the incident  Ex.  This is done by the team leader who assumes control and assigns other duties such as who will be the :  Photographer  Log Recorder  Sketch Artist  Evidence Recorder and other personnel  Specialist- entomologist, blood splatter, etc

35.  Done by the photographer  A photograph is a two-dimensional reproduction of the crime scene.  It serves as the permanent record of the crime scene.  Everyone involved in the investigation will have an opportunity to look at theses photographs (the District Attorney, the defense counsel,  homicide detectives, etc).  They are also very important to you because the photographs will serve as “memory joggers” when you have to get up on the witness stand and testify.  Good pictures are essential because most trials do not take place until a year  or more has passed.  Videos can also be taking at the crime

36.  This is done by the photographer  Requirements of each photo:  Photograph overall area from up close and medium range and far away prior to moving anything.  Close up of each piece of evidence with evidence marker (including corpse)  Include a point of reference to indicate size. ( a ruler, a pen, a car key)

37.  An accurate rough sketch drawn to scale noting position of evidence and body.  All objects should be measured from 2 immovable landmarks  Sketch should include Case #, date, time, locations, and assignments.  Also included should be dimensions of room, furniture, doors, windows, distance of objects or bodies from entrances and exits  Key Legend, should include direction and scale
