The research team combined GSR with Raman spectroscopy, in which laser light of a specific wavelength is shined on a sample, sending its molecules vibrating. Well-suited for forensic analysis, spectroscopy does not destroy evidence, requires limited sample preparation, and has a range of applications including the identification of explosives, paint, textile dyes, drugs, and bodily fluids.

Lednev concludes that more analysis is needed before CSI teams employ the method in a courtroom. One day, investigators might even be able to flip through a database of Raman spectra of different ammunitions to more quickly link that crime-scene residue to a specific kind of gun.

I think this is an awesome idea. I wish they had this when I was a kid. #forensics #forensicscience 

Uh oh. The Department of Justice is expanding its review nationwide of the FBI's #forensics techniques behind the hair unit which has been under intense scrutiny - after it was discovered that nearly all of their experts overstated results in hair analysis.
Not good,

Researchers in the School of Archaeology rediscovered skull and bones during "housecleaning" from a 1966 #coldcase

At the time, the FBI had examined the remains and determined the victim was shot in the head and died around 1961-64. Students and their professor return to the scene of the crime to try and solve it.
