Explaining_Forensics.docx CJS/215: Introduction To Forensics Explaining Forensics 1.Describe the evolution of forensic sciences over time, including the role of key pioneers. ï‚·Some of the earliest reports of forensics being utilized comes from a case in China that happened within the third century. Information and knowledge about the human anatomy and body werent really something that was actually explored until a few centuries down the road. In the late 1700s is when scientists and chemists began taking more steps towards finding ways to look further into deaths of individuals. For example, Carl Wilhelm Scheele did the first successful testing to detect poison arsenic within dead bodies. This was considered a major breakthrough within chemistry at the time as this was something that was not looked into or explored before. During the mid-1850s is when photography became introduced into the forensics to be able to document and keep photos of any crime scenes that may have been needed to be kept for investigation purposes.

Osborn who worked in examining documents and eventually ended up writing an extremely important book by the name of Questioned Documents, which is still to this day used as a vital resource for examiners. 2.Differentiate 2-3 of the 11 forensic science disciplines outlined in this weeks reading used to aid law enforcement officials in conducting their investigations.. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .. . . . . .. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .. . .. .. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .. . . . .
