Evidence

INTRODUCTION Evidence plays a major role usually in trail of a case. Several types of evidence can be used. Evidence can be divided into two categories – Testimonial evidence and Physical evidence. Physical evidence is one type of such evidence; this evidence can be brought to court room for observation during trails. This is the most important evidence. Physical evidence is also known as real evidence, they consist tangible article from tiny microscopic to macroscopic evidence from large building

The collection of evidence, whether it be direct, circumstantial, physical, or testimonial, is very important to a case. Why? Because that evidence is what the prosecution hopes will end with a conviction. However, sometimes things happen and evidence gets contaminated. Now, the biggest thing to determine is whether the contamination happened on accident or if someone tampered with it on purpose. There are four different types of evidence, direct, circumstantial, physical, and testimonial.

exemplar prints, comparison of bite marks on a victim, DNA evidence, hair and fibre matching are some of the example of pattern comparison in forensic science (Coyle, Field & Wenderoth, 2009). Comparison of pattern evidence in forensic science is to determine whether the same kind of the properties of forensic traces may have come from a common (or related source) (Found & Edmond, 2012).

Physical Evidence is evidence that is seen at the crime scene. They are objects that may contain vital information that are laying around the area of where the crime is committed. These objects are sent to research facilities to see if the objects are useful in finding out what really happened during the crime. If they are useless, then they will not change the thought of those who wish to know the truth. But if they hold information that will turn the tide of a court case, then they will be used

The solving of a crime is highly dependent on the evidence gathered by the investigative team. The crime scene will be the place where most (but not all) evidence will be located. This evidence can range from tiny hair which are hardly visible to the naked eye to the more conspicuous pieces of clothing left behind by the assailant. Whatever the case, this evidence often may often have a very short life before it either gets destroyed or is contaminated. Hence it is imperative that it be gathered

Evidence is every considerable type of proof legally presented at a trial it also must be approved by a judge. The reason why we use evidence is to help convince the judge or jury of supposed facts that relate to the case. Witnesses who testify, an expert who has information on certain fields of work, paperwork, records, photos etc. are all types of evidence that could be used in a case. Circumstantial evidence is evidence that aims to come to a conclusion by stating the cause while logically trying
