The crime scene investigation discipline has received much media attention in the form of several television shows. The most popular show, CSI: Crime Scene Investigation©, provides an interesting perspective on the job functions of an investigator (or technician). For this assignment, you will view an episode of the popular television series and provide commentary, answering several questions.
The first requirement is to view the episode. You can view an archived episode on the CBS website, Hulu.com or another television archive site. Be aware that you may be required to install software such as RealPlayer, Windows Media Player, or a browser plug-in.
Next, include the following information regarding the episode you selected at the beginning of your opinion paper: Episode title, season no., episode no., and episode length (in minutes, e.g., 39:00).
Once you have viewed the episode, answer the following questions in a 3-4 page opinion paper:
What do you believe was showcased as a legitimate way of working/processing a crime scene?
What do you believe was showcased as a crime scene investigation technique which may have been fabricated for entertainment purposes?
Which crime scene personnel were needed for the crime scene and what was their function/purpose?
Based on the module reading, list up to five (5) items of evidence you identified from the case being solved and why these particular items were important to the case.
The paper must follow basic APA guidelines (cover page, header, one-inch margins, Times New Roman or Arial font, etc.).
