Forensics Evidence Analysis: Current Case

Part I - Find A Case

As we discussed in class, you will research and decide on a case currently developing or a current trial (as of the date of this post) in which there is significant physical evidence.

Prepare a one to two page case summary (text, images will be in addition to this) outlining the crimes committed and the known physical evidence. Be sure to cite ALL sources and show the use (and source) of ANYthing someone else wrote.


We modeled the format for the report in class today using an article relating the Laci / Stace Peterson cases as our example.

Part I Due Date: Friday, November 30, 2007, IN CLASS
Late reports will be lose one letter grade per day, including weekend days.


Part II - Same as last time -
(a) Your group will prepare a presentation (including some form of display) of the case and present it to the class. Presentations will be scheduled for Wednesdays beginning December 5th.

(b)Your group will split into two and will present to the jury (your classmates) a case for the prosecution and a case for the defense based on the physical evidence. Groups will present their cases (two groups per class) every Wednesday in November-December.
