One significant artifact that is important in being a crime
scene investigator would be a fingerprint.
Critical Reading-
Preview- hard to see, black, many curvy lines
First Impression- very unique, tricky to distinguish from
others
Key Ideas- DNA profiling, personal identifier, specific to
each individual
Connection- DNA fingerprinting doesn’t require an actual
fingerprint because they can use any cell from a person and get the fingerprint
from that, almost impossible to get rid of fingerprints or anything linking to
finger prints
Questions- How are fingerprints obtained? How accurate are
fingerprints as evidence? What types of figure prints are there?
Summary- Fingerprints are one of the most important pieces
of evidence.
Critical Response-
Key Question- How are fingerprints used?
Detail Analysis-What ways are fingerprints obtained? How are
they helpful?
Interpretation- Fingerprints are used as means of
identification. Fingerprint evidence is used to identify individuals in court
trials all the time.
Synthesis- FBI contains over 200,00 prints per day which is
both good and bad. It is challenging to store all the prints in the computer
but with all the different prints it is more likely to catch criminals.
Final Synthesis- Since no two people have the same
fingerprint, it makes them very reliable and useful in today’s court trials.
