Gathering Evidencee

Gathering evidence

There are many different things to gather information from in a crime scene. One of the main things evidence is gathered from is guns and other firearms. This method is called bullet matching. When a bullet is fired from a gun, there are tiny microscopic scratches left on the bullet. Every gun is completely unique, and no two guns leave the exact same pattern on the bullet. Forensic scientists then fire a bullet, and compare it to the one found at the crime scene. If the two bullets match, then they know that gun was used to commit the crime.

Another type of evidence is imprint evidence. Some examples of imprint evidence are shoe prints and tire prints. Tire prints can be especially useful. From a tire print, forensic scientists can gather enough information to tell which way they went, what kind of tires they have, and most importantly kind of car the person was driving.
