Footwear track evidence can be very instrumental to the successful conclusion of a criminal investigation.Detailed examination of footwear impressions can help to link a specific piece of footwear to a footwear imprint as each shoe will have unique wear characteristics.
Photographing Footwear Evidence
Written by Dwane Hilderbrand
Taking quality examination photographs
When making quality examination photographs of the evidence prints, be sure to use the same numbered marker you used when you were showing the relationship of the print to the scene. In order for a footwear examiner to perform a quality examination, high-quality, close-up photographs are required. Since footwear evidence can come in two different forms—prints and impres-sions—the techniques of photography are slightly different. This can be easily obtained with a little time and patience. There are many types of cameras that are being used for crime-scene photo-graphy, ranging from 35 mm and 4 x 5 film cameras to digital cameras.
After the selection of the camera and the film or digital media, you will need to select an appropriate scale that will be present in all the photographs. This is very critical in order to allow for enlargement from the negative or image to make an exact duplicate of size (1:1). When no scale is utilized in the photograph, the examiner has no idea what the size of the real impression is. It then becomes difficult for the forensic photographer to print 1:1 scale photographs for examination purposes.
Types of footwear evidence
Footwear evidence can come in at least 3 forms, footwear outsole impression evidence, footwear insole impressions and footwear trace evidence.
Footwear outsole impression
Footwear outsole impressions are impressions left on an object that was caused by contact with a piece of footwear. These can left on the ground or raised surface by persons treading over it, left on doors or walls by persons attempting to kick or climb over a wall or even left on other persons after being kicked or stomped on.
Latent footwear outsole impressions:
Latent impressions are caused impressions that are not easily visible to naked eye. Such prints can be on many different surfaces such as floor tiles, concrete or even carpet. Latent impression may not be easily visible to the naked eye and its detection may require the use of additional specialized light sources such as portable UV lighting. Recovery typically includes photography as well as lifting with “gel” or “electrostatic” dust lifters.
Footwear Insole imprints
Footwear insole imprints are imprints left in the inside of footwear caused by contact from the person’s foot. Analysis of the insole imprints can be used to link a person(s) to a piece of footwear.
Footwear trace evidence
Footwear trace evidence is trace evidence that is recovered from footwear. Types of trace evidence that could be recovered include skin, glass fragments, body hair, fibres from clothing or carpets, soil particles, dust and bodily fluids. The study of this trace evidence could be used to link a piece of footwear to a location or owner.
Dead Birds falling from sky, Millions of fishes turning up dead on the shores of the coasts around the world, the decline in the bumble bee.. Is it that the clock for 2012 is ticking Already…Well it is common sense to be concerned when the animals around us start dying suddenly and in large numbers.
Everyone is talking about it,. the media reports just keep coming in on the phenomenon. So what exactly is happening??
Is it really the “Disease” , the “Global Warming”, Blunt Trauma , “Aliens” (I just made that one up). Well the phenomenon of such a massive deaths has got many people concerned.If you have missed the Reports .. Here is the Recap of what might have been the Cause of death of the birds:
1. Loud Noise Likely Caused Birds’ Deaths in Arkansas
2. Early tests show Ark. blackbirds died of trauma
3. Dead birds in Sweden killed by ‘external blows
The fish deaths are also a mystery: While the scientists say that disease is the most likely cause — because only one fish species washed up dead — that explanation doesn’t hold water. Here’s why:
Animals deaths don’t resemble infectious disease patternA virus, bacteria or fungus doesn’t magically and suddenly spread across 100,000 members of one species all on the same day. It takes time for such infectious agents to spread. If disease were the cause, you should have seen a few fish showing up dead on one day, followed by a few more some days later, then a lot more after that, and then finally a much larger mass over the subsequent days or weeks as the infectious agent spread through the population.This could be an indication of a poison or some other radical change such as a sharp temperature change in the river. Something changed in the environment — perhaps a rapid depletion of oxygen, or the interference with fish physiology through electromagnetic means.
