FORENSIC SCIENCE PROJECT

Abstract

The aim of this project is to study the aftermath of the Logh Lomond murder involving a woman who was shot in the head and his husband, who survived, but was wounded inside the car. In order to investigate the causes of the crime, certain procedures had to be executed. Alongside this, the results of these procedures were considered, as well as their limitations and the conclusion of each part. After receiving specific information about the crime, it was determined that several individuals were suspects of being the possible murderer, including Alexandra Burth, John Branks, Stephen Blue and finally Gordon Ward. During this study, a discussion about the final conclusion will be presented. Furthermore, specific references regarding the different procedures have been added, such as blood or drug tests. When including further work, creating a company which helped the police end with crime involving drugs was thought, hiring expert scientists from all over the world. Finally, the visit to the Central Scientific Police Base in Erandio has been taken into consideration. This visit enabled the people working on this project to take the next step in the forensic science field. After collecting all the information obtained, the result is this piece of work full of details and specific data related to the crime scene.
