Crime Scene Project
In my criminalistics class we just turned in a crime scene project. What we had to do was create a fake crime scene, document the scene with sketches, photographs, and notes, have a first person narrative report on everything that was done, and create a presentation of everything we did.
This project was putting everything we learned this semester and last semester to the test, based on documentation, evidence collection and packaging, and how well everything was put together.
My group, and it seemed like every other group decided to do a murder scene.
Let me walk you through:
The murder happened the night of June 18th, 2014 in a 3rd floor classroom of our science building at school. Our body was found the next morning by the Janitor who called the University Police Department, who called us.
After following a trail of blood near the entrance of the room we find our victim. A 23 year old, hispanic female who is later identified as a current student at the school.
We find her lying in a pool of blood.
A few pieces of evidence we find are a partial foot/shoe print near the main entrance of the room, a handprint, a bloody knife thrown in the trash, and some loose strands of hair that don't look like they belong to our victim.
*Some little notes: This isn't a real crime scene, the "dead" body is a friend to one of my group members and isn't dead. Anything that looks like blood, isn't it is catsup (we were allowed to be creative), and no one was injured during the time this took place.

Evidence was collected and sent to the lab for analysis. We are waiting on results.
We do have one suspect being the victims boyfriend.
