objects like walls)

CRIME SCENE DESCRIPTION/NOTES:

It was late on this foggy Sunday evening, June 12, 1994. A
woman, who lived across the street, heard a dog barking, and
when she looked out of her window, she saw the dog, a white
Akita, pacing up and down outside the front of 875 South Bundy
Drive. The dog was barking and trotting up and down in an
agitated manner. The dog dragged the neighbor back to number
875, where it stopped and gazed down a dim, tree-shaded
pathway. Following the dog's stare, she saw a shape of someone
lying at the foot of some steps, part of the body sprawled under
an iron fence.
The first officer on the scene was mainly concerned about not
stepping in a small lake of blood as he proceeded up the tiled
walkway where he reached the first body, which lay about 15
feet from the street sidewalk. It was a woman, sprawled face
down, left cheek pressing into the ground, her right leg jack-
knifed under the gate frame to the left and her buttocks pressed
up against the first riser of the four steps that led up to the path
leading to the front door of the condominium. She was wearing
a short black dress, drenched in the blood that had poured out of
wounds to her upper body and throat.
To her right, just beyond an agapanthus bush in a small garden
off the walkway, lay the body of a man. He was crumpled over
on his right side, sprawled against a garden fence. His eyes
were open and his light brown shirt and blue jeans were
saturated in blood. There was a set of keys, a dark blue knit cap,
a beeper, a blood-spattered white envelope and a bloodstained
left hand leather glove lying under the agapanthus plant in the
small garden to the left of the pathway only a few inches from
woman's body.
There was a trail of bloody footprints leading away from both
bodies going back to the entrance door. At the upper end of the
path the back of the property and alongside the footprints, drops

of blood were trailing in the same direction.

is that full sentences are required at each level of the outline.
This outline is most often used when preparing a traditional
essay.

Thesis Statement:
Question(s)/Issues Being Addressed:
I. Man-made pollution is the primary cause of global warming.
A. Greenhouse gas emissions are widely identified by the
scientific community to be harmful (Smith, 2014).
1. The burning of coal and fossil fuels are the primary releasers
of
hazardous greenhouse gases.
Full sentence outlines are often accompanied with an APA
reference list on a separate page. Quotes within the outline
must also utilize current APA format with in-text citations.
