Bloodstain patterns at a crime scene can often yield a wealth of information. Part observational skills, part physics, and part mathematics, bloodstain pattern analysis may be used to help reconstruct as well as assist in supporting or refuting suspect/victim or other eyewitness accounts of the crime. Through a series of stations, students will examine the effects of several factors such as height, angle of impact, surface texture, and velocity before impact as they relate to the physical appearance of bloodstains.Kit contains enough materials for an entire class as well as Teacher’s Manual and Student Study Guide copymasters.
