Learn the skills of a Crime Scene Investigator ...
Explore the exciting world of the Forensic Investigator in this unforgettable interactive experience day.
You will spend the day using real forensic methods and techniques to perform a range of established crime scene investigations. All investigations that you perform are "hands-on", giving you the opportunity to learn how these procedures work in real life.
Your day will include:
DRUG TESTING:
Perform a drugs test! The suspect was carrying a small plastic bag of a white substance when arrested. He was known to police as a cocaine dealer. Was he carrying cocaine?
Carry out chemical tests to establish if the white powder was cocaine?
FINGERPRINTING:
Learn how to lift and record fingerprints using the conventional dusting process to detect and preserve fingerprints.
MICROSCOPY:
Use a light microscope to forensically examine crime scene samples. Discover how to use different magnifying powers to optimise the results.
FABRIC SAMPLE ANALYSIS:
Compare samples collected at the crime scene and on the suspect to identify human hairs.
SOIL ANALYSIS:
Analyse soil samples collected from the crime scene and compare against soil recovered from the suspect's shoes. Identify which soil sample is common between both crime scene and suspect. Use chemical tests to confirm your results.
TOOL MARK IDENTIFICATION:
You have a known tool impression from the crime scene. Use forensic casting techniques to create clay impressions and compare with a range of tools recovered from the suspect's tool shed. Which tool did he use?
BLOOD DETECTION:
Blood-like stains were found at the crime scene. Before sending samples to the forensic lab we need to establish if they are blood samples. Use established forensic tests and procedures to identify blood spots and stains that may not be visible to the naked eye.
DNA EXTRACTION:
Perform an extraction procedure to extract DNA from samples provided. You will be able to see (and feel) actual DNA once you have completed the process!
