How Does Blood Spatter Help Solve A Crime?

 Blood droplets are acted upon by forces other than gravity, such as being cast off of a weapon or being sprayed from a victim.

It is possible to determine the location of a victim, the type of weapon used, and the force used in a crime by examining the shape and size of these droplets.

Today in Criminal Investigations class students in the criminal investigations class applied basic trigonometry in analyzing blood spatter to determine the location from where the blood originated in the commission of a crime of violence.   

This is always such a fun, informative lab that they do every year. Thank Mr. Robinson for this experience for your students.
