Course Description

DNA and Fingerprint Evidence & Identification

 

Evidence for identification – suspects and decedents – includes some of the same principles as forensic evidence in criminal defense.

 

This webinar covers:

  - DNA Evidence and Identification

 

DNA is unique to each individual, except identical twins.

Fingerprints (palm, foot, etc.) are unique to each individual, including identical twins.
