Descriere

Processing a crime scene where human remains are found presents unique challenges and requires specialized techniques not generally learned in standard crime scene and law enforcement training. This volume is an updated, comprehensive reference pertaining to the search, recovery, documentation, and excavation of human remains and associated evidence from forensic contexts. Highlights include chapters on understanding the forensic context and writing the final report, locating experts, terminology and equipment, surveying and mapping techniques, excavation of buried evidence, and guidelines for distinguishing between human and nonhuman skeletal remains. Case studies and discussion questions facilitate further study.
