Alice Maceo, Evolve Forensics
The recording of the friction ridge skin, both latent prints and exemplar prints, is subject to a milieu of factors. Some of these factors can push the two impressions out of tolerance for variation in appearance, causing analysts to fail to associate a print with a person. This workshop will allow participants to compare images of the friction skin prone to these errors.
