Write a two to three page paper in which you:

1. Explicate how digital forensics was used to identify Rader as a suspect and lead to more concrete physical evidence.

2. Describe in detail the digital evidence that was uncovered from the floppy disk obtained from Rader. Discuss why you believe it took so many years to find concrete evidence in order to build a case against Rader.

3. Explain how the acquisition of digital evidence aided the investigation and whether or not you believe Rader would've been a person of interest if the floppy disk evidence wasnt sent.
