Baxter, Everett,

Complete crime scene investigation handbook / Everett Baxter Jr. - 610 pages : illustrations (colour)

Crime scene investigators are the foundation for every criminal investigation. The admissibility and persuasiveness of evidence in court, and in turn, the success of a case, is largely dependent upon the evidence being properly collected, recorded, and handled for future analysis by investigators and forensic analysts in the lab. This handbook is the most complete, one-stop practical reference for law enforcement and crime scene professionals as well as students looking to enter the field. It provides step-by-step methods and best practice protocols for effectively finding, recognizing, recording, collecting, preserving, handling, and packaging evidence.
