Meet James Pollock

Distance Learner

Meet Andrea Marais

Panama City Student

1. Always photograph print first.

2. Place tape about 1 inch from edge of print.

3. Smooth the tape over print- be careful not to destroy print or get air bubbles in the tape.

4. Lift the tape and place the print on lift card.

5. Properly label the lift card with information about the case and location the print was found.

Identify the evidence-

The 3 types of prints left at crime scenes are...

patent

latent

3D

Developing Latent Prints with Black Powder

What We Do

1. P.P.E.

2. Lightly dip the tip of brush in the fingerprint powder.

3. Lightly brush the surface.

4. Brush in direction of ridges as they appear.

5. Once the print is clear, lift print- do not over develop.

We teach students to identify, collect and preserve evidence at the scene.

We then analyze the evidence and reconstruct crime scenes.

We study each of the forensic disciplines accepted as good science by the AAFS.

Fingerprints

Blood Spatter

Forensic Anthropology

Toxicology

DNA

Forensic Pathology

Forensic Entomology

And more

The Program

Fingerprint Basics

A fingerprint is an individual characteristic; no two people have been found with the exact same fingerprint pattern. Not even identical twins!

A fingerprint pattern will remain unchanged for the life of an individual.

Fingerprints have general characteristic ridge patterns that allow them to be systematically identified.

Arches (2 sub classes)

Loops (2 sub classes)

Whorls (3 sub classes)

Minutia- ridge endings, bifurcations, etc.

Our Students

B.S. in Public Safety and Security with a major in Crime Scene Investigation

Academic courses are offered face to face and distance learning. DL can join live broadcast.

Our hands on labs are offered in summer accelerated semesters.

Forensic Death Investigation Lab

Impression & Pattern Evidence Lab

Crime Scene Imaging & Reconstruction Lab

Trace & Biometric Evidence Lab

The program began in Fall 2015 with 7 CSI majors.

Since that time we have graduated 39 students.

Working as CSIs

Death Investigators for ME offices

In Graduate School or Law School

As of the this semester we have 57 CSI majors and will average about 10 new students in Fall & Spring and 5 in summer.

The Foundation has provided our lunch during labs, team dinner one night during lab week and travel assistance to those distance learners who need it. Our program is a success in large part because you help make it affordable for our students.
