CRIME SCENE RECONSTRUCTION AND BLOOD SPATTER ANALYSIS AND INTERPRETATION
On any major case, especially Homicide Investigations, nothing is more relevant than the Crime Scene Investigation. More than most other evidence, the story told by the Crime Scene may be the most compelling. The ability to interpret the information provided by the Crime Scene is crucial to the defense of any defendant charged with a crime.
