Forensic Science

As a criminalist, you have been asked to speak to a group of police academy students who want to learn more about crime scene investigation.

Write a 1,050- to 2,100-word APA formatted academic paper in which you address the following in the same manner as you would address the group of students:

• Identify the procedures and responsibilities associated with crime scene evaluation.
• Describe the procedures for securing and searching the crime scene to include crime scene safety.
• Describe the preservation and collection of physical evidence.
• Identify the tools needed to collect and process evidence at a crime scene.
• Identify methods of recording the crime scene.

Format your resources consistent with APA guidelines.
