We arrived at the crime scene at 09.30am, where there had been a drug-related murder. That means stabbed body on the floor. Surprisingly little blood on the floor after bleeding to death though, even though the knife was ENORMOUS! Had to ask for the biggest evidence box.. and even that didn't fit!
We swetted, we stressed, we fingerprinted and photographed, we bagged and we filled in forms, and I even had to chase of two intruders who suddenly stood in the middle of the room and wanted to know what was happening (let me just say, my dear lab-teachers John and Kirsten are NOT my favourites any more:( that was mean!! but they were questioned and photographed and wandered happily away after a while.) When we took down the "Do-not-cross"-corden, we knew there were so much more we should have gotten done, but what else can you do when your Chief Inspecter commands you to shut down cause he wants to go for lunch...
Conclusion: we had a blast, and considering it was the very first time we have investigated a crime scene, racing against the clock as well, I think we did good. But BOY do those fibers that we had to leave behind enoy me...
Oh yeah, one more advice... When wearing an investigation suit.. wear as little as possible underneath. I almost turned into a pond in there... Gasping for air behind that icky mask:p
