SummaryCriminal examiners are aware that it usually takes several pieces of evidence to crack an intricate case, so much so, that neophyte recruits and veteran investigators alike are schooled and equipped to search for, spot, bring together, and protect “palpable” physical evidence like weapons and stolen property, as well as map out physical evidence such as fibers, hairs, fingerprints, blood, and semen. Basically, only a handful of police officers, lawyers, scientists, or people in general, would question the significance and the consequence of employing the best procedures available to acquire and safeguard such evidence, not to mention observance to pertinent constitutional and case law.
