Forensic Botany - When Plants Become Silent Witnesses
Advertisement
🔎 How might a few grains of pollen be instrumental in solving a cold case homicide?
🔎 Is it possible to locate clandestine grave sites, based on the type of vegetation present, and even use that information to figure out how, where, and when the victim was killed?
🔎 Can the growth pattern of plants really help to establish "time since death" estimates, which are critical in identifying unknown victims of homicides?
Find the answers to these questions, and more, in this fascinating presentation on Forensic Botany, given by retired FBI Supervisory Special Agent Lydia Pozzato, who taught the FBI's course on Death Investigations to police executives at the prestigious FBI National Academy in Quantico, VA, as a member of the Behavioral Science Unit.
