I spent the five happiest years of my life in a morgue. As a forensic scientist in the Cleveland coroner’s office I analyzed gunshot residue on hands and clothing, hairs, fibers, paint, glass, DNA, blood and many other forms of trace evidence, as well as crime scenes. Now I'm a certified latent print examiner and CSI for a police department in Florida. I also write a series of forensic suspense novels, turning the day job into fiction. My books have been translated into six languages.
Probably a small plane crash. And one terrible case of elder neglect.

I am an expert in some areas of forensic science. I am not an expert in law, public safety policy or our political system.

Probably 'touch' DNA, getting a DNA profile from someone's skin cells where they touched something. It's always a bit of a crapshoot because without a visible stain, you can't be sure there's any DNA there at all. But it's worth a try and sometimes we get results.

What do you do if a guest is doing something illegal in a room?
I'm sorry but I have no idea. I have no legal training. You'd have to ask a cop or a lawyer.
Share Answer: 
I don't know of any particular mathematics requirements. You'd need enough basic math skills to balance chemical equations, calculate reagents in formulas, and record accurate measurements. Ballistics or accident investigation might need more advanced skills, but I would not know about that. Good luck!
Share Answer: 
Not necessarily. I would say in this day and age, all bets are off.
