In the nineteenth century century legal medicine was the science applied to the search, investigation and proof of items related to crime materiality. With thw development of new knowledge in techinical areas, such as physics, chemistry, mathematics, toxicology..., arises the need for the creation of a new discipline of research, analysis and interpretation of traces found at crime scene.
Thus was born the Criminal law field, an independent science that comes to give support to the police and justice, with the aim of tge clarification of criminal cases.
The Criminal law field concerns itself primarly to determine in what way the offense is committed and who comitted it. It also includes questions: "how?", "why?","who?", "which instruments were used?", "fromwhere?", "when?", ie the Criminal law field uses a number of techiniques, procedures and sciences establishing the truth about the criminal act.
There are two types of Criminal law field:
- Biological - from biological traces which are found on the victim of a crime or on the crime scene, is compared with the genetic profile of the person.
- Non biological - is the analysis of digital printing, palms and feet. These tests can be carried out in the laboratory of scientific expertise of the Judicial Police.
Individuals who work in this area are called criminalists. These experts are the first to reach the scene, of the crime, they see what others don't see, catch the culprits, dominate the use of laser and ultiviolet rays, wear appeling uniforms and have at their disposal the most advenced technology.
Their work begins, as it can only be expected, at the crime scene.
