Abstract

Crime scene investigation is a crucial part of any investigation. It is the connecting point of science, logic, and law. The examination of a crime scene is a time-consuming and labor intensive process that includes relevant documentation, photography, or videography of the situation or condition at the scene, as well as the position of the evidence. Forensic science principles govern criminal proceedings from the examination of a crime scene to the conviction of an accused in a court of law. Law enforcement created the forensics protocol, a methodical strategy or procedure that must be followed for evidence to be reliable and admissible in court. The goal of this article is to propose a systematic approach for dealing with crime scene evidence in the context of forensic and law enforcement specialists to avoid contamination, deterioration, and loss of (value) evidence.
