After the last reading quiz of the winterim course (yay), we set off to the BCII (Beau of Criminal Identification and Investigation).
We mainly talked about the examination of firearms, matching the bullets to the gun, determining the distance of which the gun is fired, and things like that. We went to the labatory for firearm examination, and saw the water tank for test firing, and it was pretty amazing to think that it was able to stop a bullet and keep it intact with just water in it. There was another wall made out of recycled tires (amazing thought) that was also made to stop and preserve bullets for comparison. It seems that every different gun makes a mark on the bullet that is unique to itself, and it can be identified.
We also took a tour through the other labs, including DNA, fingerprints, photograph, and drugs (and here we saw another set of gas chromotagraphy machines for determining the components in samples, we saw some at the police department, and another at the coroners' office).
