Lecture Overview
Think you could get away with the perfect crime?
Crime scene investigation is a high-stakes game of hide and seek. But finding evidence is only the beginning. What does it mean, who interprets it, and will it stand up in court?
Dr. Nafte takes us inside the world of forensics, from death scenes and coroners to cases and courtrooms. Along the way, we meet the specialists tasked with collecting, documenting and interpreting the traces left behind.
What can bodies, bones and blood reveal? How have advances in technology transformed investigations? And how does a discovery at a crime scene become evidence in a courtroom?
Through an exploration of forensic methods and the people behind them, this lecture brings the big picture into focus.
Come test your skills. Your crime-drama viewing history may or may not count as preparation.
