Crime Scene Indicators
Frequently Noted. Multiple crime scenes usually are involved with this
homicide: the site where the product is altered, the location where the product
is procured by the victim, the place of use or consumption, and the death
scene. The location of alteration may offer evidence of the tampering involved.
If it is mechanical sabotage, tools particular to that alteration will be
present. Chemicals, poisons, and medicines may be found if this type of
tampering is employed.
Tampered-product
locations and the proximity of victims to sites will aid in deciding the scope
and movement of the offender as well as origin of the product. At the death
scene, the proximity of the victim to the altered product can aid the
investigator in reconstructing the product’s path. In addition, communication
from the offender may be found at any of the scenes involved.
