The sample will be compared with the sample from the body’s mouth and nose and the differences in the sample could help make some decisions. Samples of the body’ hair will help identify the victim and differentiate it from any other DNA collected from the crime scene. Some bone marrow and muscle tissue samples from the body could be analyzed and help determine when the victim’s blood circulation came to a stop. This would help correlate when the crime was committed and when the victim lost her life.
The samples would also help determine the DNA profile of the dead woman. I expect a single DNA profile from the blood sample obtained from the mouth and nose of the body. However, mixed DNA profile could be expected from the blood sample obtained from the left arm and breast of the body, as it could be a mixture of the victim and offenders blood strains. The items found at the crime scene could be analyzed to shed more light on the crime. A white T-shirt and a purse could be screened to determine the finger prints on them.
The items could be screened differently and the results recorded. The sample of the body tissues will be subjected to relevant tests to affirm the presence of foreign chemicals or alcohol levels in the body. Nature of blood samples could also help determine the duration elapsed since the crime was committed. Fresh or wet blood means the crime was committed a few hours or minutes ago while dry blood means the crime took time a long ago. Attending the crime scene would imply some advantages and disadvantages to the investigation.
The good side of attending the site is that it presents the investigators to a more detailed scenario to make relevant decisions. For instance, visiting the site could enable luminal tests to ascertain whether the offender cleaned the site to eliminate evidence of blood strains from the crime. Furthermore, more blood stains could be cleaned by natural causes like rain and hoar frost among others. From
