I'd probably like to become a forensic engineer. im currently studying ballistics. The only problem, is that where I live (France) , you have to be a sworn officer, to be from the country (seeing as I'm english, it excludes me), and you get paid pennies...which I have ot sayd, put's me of a...

Re: Welcome to the Forensic Science Forum Hi again, I know this topic has been talked about, cut into pieces, and inspected on every side, but light be worthwhile trying again...when ne says "I like forensics", what type. i for myself am interested in ballistics, about about you, and why?

Maybe something about the different areas of forensic, like on thread on CSIs, on thread on toxicology...so on and so forth...??

You always say firearms and never ballistics. On your site, you say they're different things, but I don't see how. I'm working on ballistics now, and I don't see how it differs.

cheers. i was testing for lead and barium on a window seal, but the tests are just not practicable in a university laboratry (or so they say anyway...) so I'm kind of growing desperate....

Me and spelling...those two just don't go along...But there isn't that much diference with a puncture or a laceration. Ofen, a pen or (even if it's less likely) can also cause laceration. I always thought they were airly the same. Do you know the differences? (I guess it's in size measurement...

I hope it's a good episode, not a soap drama one. I can already imagine the scene : Natalia comes in worried : my sister hasn't turned up in over a week, I'm worried. And at the same time, H is investigating the dissapearance of an other young women....sudddenly the links become clear. Could be...

it means they die of extanguishen (or that kind of spelling...) A laceration is a puncture, basically a whole in, in this case, the jugular vein. It could be caused by a blunt trauma, by an accident, by a bullet...

and csi maimi save the day again...Is it just me or is season 5 goin back to what season 1 used to be (one investigation, no, or not a lot of soapdrama), but whith a growing "ilportance" in the cases. I mean, if CSI Miamis wasn't there, half of the city would have already blown out. This only...

Help, I'm doing a big project on ballistics. One of my paragraph consists on detecting GSR. We were planning to ddo the sodium rhodizonate test but the laboratry doesn't have it and doesn't want to get it. I know there is also the morine test or the modified Griess test, but I don't think you...

It's just the way it was shot, it looked like H was looking at it, and the way he said "he can forget" It just seemed like a big allusion.

but what about the database. i know some countries share it with others (like in the EU, but that's a bit unusual). I'm pretty sure USA share it with Canada, I must have read it somewhere, but anywhere else that comes to your mind?

...But I meant other ones...

cheers! funny it isn't installed in the UK, I always thought it was...

I had a quick look in a few textbooks. The body is washed to remove the blood, but you wouldn't find any blood in the mouth (it would have been swallowed). What you said about compromising stomach contents doesn't matter, pouring water would only add water in the stomach, when in any case, there...

does anyone have sites on ballistics? ... just thought I'd ask...

sorry if this has already been discussed, but is it just me going crazy, or is the last image of the episode the exact spot were Ray Jr, and Yelina stopped and discovered the plane with Ray in season 3? I don't know how to post images, but if someone has both screen shots, it'd be great to...

if anyone is interested in ballistics, here's my bible... http://www.firearmsid.com

about AFIS, does anybody know in which country it's used except the USA? I know candada use it ( or I think..) and I think a few countries have access to it. Any ideas?

Sorry if i budge in, but what's up with Yelina and Ray jr? I mean, I'm all up for decentering the show from H and more towards the whole team but still, at least mentionning them would be nice. Does anyone know anyhing about it?
