The document is the testimony of a forensic document examiner named Modupe Sarratt regarding a case involving a scrap of paper found in a car. Sarratt examined one unknown scrap of paper and three known writing samples from individuals including Mrs. Jackson, Mr. Aaron Andrade, and Mr. Alexander Rios. Through microscopic analysis, ultraviolet lighting examination, and comparison of handwriting characteristics, Sarratt concluded that the unknown scrap of paper did not match any of the three known writing samples.

Expert Witness Testimony

2. Specimen Description
One known exemplar (K1) was submitted by Mrs.
Jackson for comparison with an unknown ASW scrap
of paper found in the car of Mr. Aaron Andrade (Q1).
Additional known exemplars of Mr. Aaron Anadrade
(K2) and Mr. Alexander Rios (K3) were also submitted
for comparison.

3. Protocols for Compare Script
Uses science to study handwriting or script; an expert is someone who
uses science to analyses a document for differences in characteristic of
the letters.
Scope of my examination include
 Identification unknown and known sample by their name
 Comparing handwriting of the unknown side by side with the known
 By make a small mark at the top of each letter
 Using ruler to join the dots to identified handwriting pattern of the unknown
and exemplars
 Scrutinizing handwriting with
 Microscopic/Oblique Lighting
 Macroscopic/Ultraviolet Lighting
 Electrostatic (ESDA) - Not Uses
To find what are,
• Perfectly match
• Mostly match
• Somewhat match
• Do not match at all

4. Laboratory Test Result
 Physical Comparison of paper
 "Fracture match" examination of the cut edges of both sides of each sheet of
paper were unable to be matched with samples given from Mr. Andrade,
Mrs. Jackson, and Mr. Rios
 Microscopic/Oblique lighting
 Oblique lighting analysis with a Foster-Freeman Crime-Lite 82L revealed no
indented writing or markings of evidential value.
 Macroscopic/VSC6000
 Examination under ultraviolet lighting revealed several fluorescent paper
fibers bisected (cut).
 Electrostatic (ESDA) – Not Used

5. Analysis
Questioned document 3 Exemplars

6. Conclusion
Note:
A document examiner may also say that he or she cannot arrive at a
conclusion based on the given samples.
Upon testing following all the protocols and procedures. I concluded the
questioned document and exemplars
• Do not match at all
