Case Development & Incident Reconstruction
The foundation of case development is incident reconstruction. It is used during the preliminary stages of an investigation to identify facts and form a realistic hypothesis. Without it, an investigation can go the wrong direction.
How we reconstruct a case
- Personally inspect and examine the scene
- Gather facts and thoroughly document all evidence
- Carefully analyze the information to identify the relevant facts
- Create an informed hypothesis
- Determine which essential facts are still unknown and which strategies are best to pursue them
Methods we use
- Documenting conditions and laying out the scene
- Examining and documenting physical evidence present at the scene
- Digital and film photography in color, black and white, or alternative light sources such as ultraviolet and infrared
- Video recording to document space and time movement
- 3-D scanning and reconstruction
- Aerial photography
- Diagramming the scene to scale with measurements
- Creating scale models of the scene
- Developing an incident timeline
- Digital enhancement of images and video to help identify people and objects
- Laboratory testing and analysis
