6. How to Take Fingerprints by eHow.com Step 1 : Look for objects that can potentially carry fingerprints. Fingerprints leave better impressions on smooth objects. These items hold the best prints: glass, painted surfaces, metal, linoleum, varnished woods and paper. Step 2 : Grind some graphite power from a pencil. Using a knife, break the lead from a pencil into tiny pieces. Use a coin on a flat surface to grind the pieces into a fine powder. Step 3 : Sprinkle the powder onto your object. Lay the object on a flat table and gently coat the surface of the object with a fine layer of graphite powder. Step 4 : Reveal the fingerprint. Lightly dust the powder off the surface with a feather. The powder will stay attached to the oils from the suspect's skin, and a fingerprint should take shape. Be sure to dust very lightly, or you may dust away the fingerprint. Step 5 : Transfer the fingerprint. Holding a small strip of transparent tape at both ends, place the tape over the fingerprint. Press it down for a moment, then carefully pull the tape up from one end. The fingerprint will transfer onto the tape. Step 6 : Place the tape face down on an index card. Repeat the process for each finger you can find prints for on the object, and place them on the same card.

7. A 1957 Cold Case Solved by Forensics In California on July 21 st , 1957 there was a car containing four teenagers, two boys and two girls, between the ages of 15 and 17. A gunman came up to the side of the car and told them “All I want is your money, I won’t hurt you”(1957). The man drove the teenagers to a more secluded place down the road. He tied up the boys and girls and then raped one of the girls. He told the victims to undress and then took their money and watches and left them stranded in their car. The suspect ran a red light later on and officers by the names of Curtis and Phillips pulled him over. They were shot three times by the man, and the Officer Phillips shot him back three times.
